2011-05-26ALSA: PCM - Don't check DMA time-out too shortlyTakashi Iwai1-4/+13
When the PCM period size is set larger than 10 seconds, currently the PCM core may abort the operation with DMA-error due to the fixed timeout for 10 seconds. A similar problem is seen in the drain operation that has a fixed timeout of 10 seconds, too. This patch fixes the timeout length depending on the period size and rate, also including the consideration of no_period_wakeup flag.

2011-05-19ALSA: sound, core, pcm_lib: fix xrun_logBen Gardiner1-1/+1
The xrun_log function was augmented with the in_interrupt parameter whereas the empty macro definition used when xrun logging is disabled was not. Add a third parameter to the empty macro definition so as to not cause compiler errors when xrun logging (CONFIG_SND_PCM_XRUN_DEBUG) is disabled.

2011-05-18ALSA: sound, core, pcm_lib: xrun_log: log also in_interruptBen Gardiner1-4/+8
When debugging pcm drivers I found the "period" or "hw" prefix printed by either XRUN_DEBUG_PERIODUPDATE or XRUN_DEBUG_PERIODUPDATE events, respectively to be very useful is observing the interplay between interrupt-context updates and syscall-context updates. Similarly, when debugging overruns with XRUN_DEBUG_LOG it is useful to see the context of the last 10 positions. Add an in_interrupt member to hwptr_log_entry which stores the value of the in_interrupt parameter of snd_pcm_update_hw_ptr0 when the log entry is created. Print a "[Q]" prefix when dumping the log entries if in_interrupt was true. Signed-off-by: Ben Gardiner <bengardiner@nanometrics.ca> Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
2011-04-01ALSA: pcm: fix infinite loop in snd_pcm_update_hw_ptr0()Kelly Anderson1-1/+3
When period interrupts are disabled, snd_pcm_update_hw_ptr0() compares the current time against the time estimated for the current hardware pointer to detect xruns. The somewhat fuzzy threshold in the while loop makes it possible that hdelta becomes negative; the comparison being done with unsigned types then makes the loop go through the entire 263 negative range, and, depending on the value, never reach an unsigned value that is small enough to stop the loop. Doing this with interrupts disabled results in the machine locking up. To prevent this, ensure that the loop condition uses signed types for both operands so that the comparison is correctly done. Many thanks to Kelly Anderson for debugging this.

2010-11-22ALSA: pcm: detect xruns in no-period-wakeup modeClemens Ladisch1-2/+16
When period wakeups are disabled, successive calls to the pointer update function do not have a maximum allowed distance, so xruns cannot be detected with the pointer value only. To detect xruns, compare the actually elapsed time with the time that should have theoretically elapsed since the last update. When the hardware pointer has wrapped around due to an xrun, the actually elapsed time will be too big by about hw_ptr_buffer_jiffies.

2010-11-22ALSA: pcm: support for period wakeup disablingClemens Ladisch1-0/+6
This patch allows to disable period interrupts which are not needed when the application relies on a system timer to wake-up and refill the ring buffer. The behavior of the driver is left unchanged, and interrupts are only disabled if the application requests this configuration. The behavior in case of underruns is slightly different, instead of being detected during the period interrupts the underruns are detected when the application calls snd_pcm_update_avail, which in turns forces a refresh of the hw pointer and shows the buffer is empty. More specifically this patch makes a lot of sense when PulseAudio relies on timer-based scheduling to access audio devices such as HDAudio or Intel SST. Disabling interrupts removes two unwanted wake-ups due to period elapsed events in low-power playback modes. It also simplifies PulseAudio voice modules used for speech calls. To quote Lennart "This patch looks very interesting and desirable. This is something have long been waiting for." Support for this in hardware drivers is optional.

2010-08-18ALSA: pcm midlevel code - add time check for double interrupt acknowledgeJaroslav Kysela1-5/+9
The current code in pcm_lib.c do all checks using only the position in the ring buffer. Unfortunately, where the interrupts gets delayed or merged into one, we need another timing source to check when the buffer size boundary overlaps to avoid the wrong updating of the ring buffer pointers. This code uses jiffies to check the right time window without any performance impact. Signed-off-by: Jaroslav Kysela <perex@perex.cz> Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
2010-07-19ALSA: pcm core - add a safe check to the silence filling functionJaroslav Kysela1-0/+2

2010-06-28ALSA: pcm_lib: avoid timing jitter in snd_pcm_read/write()David Dillow1-8/+15
When using poll() to wait for the next period -- or avail_min samples -- one gets a consistent delay for each system call that is usually just a little short of the selected period time. However, When using snd_pcm_read/write(), one gets a jittery delay that alternates between less than a millisecond and approximately two period times. This is caused by snd_pcm_lib_{read,write}1() transferring any available samples to the user's buffer and adjusting the application pointer prior to sleeping to the end of the current period. When the next period interrupt occurs, there is then less than avail_min samples remaining to be transferred in the period, so we end up sleeping until a second period occurs. This is solved by using runtime->twake as the number of samples needed for a wakeup in addition to selecting the proper wait queue to wake in snd_pcm_update_state(). This requires twake to be non-zero when used by snd_pcm_lib_{read,write}1() even if avail_min is zero. Signed-off-by: Dave Dillow <dave@thedillows.org> Signed-off-by: Jaroslav Kysela <perex@perex.cz>
2010-05-25ALSA: pcm: fix delta calculation at boundary wraparoundClemens Ladisch1-1/+3
In the cleanup of the hw_ptr update functions in 2.6.33, the calculation of the delta value was changed to use the modulo operator to protect against a negative difference due to the pointer wrapping around at the boundary. However, the ptr variables are unsigned, so a negative difference would result in the two complement's value which has no relation to the actual difference relative to the boundary; the result is typically some value near LONG_MAX-boundary. Furthermore, even if the modulo operation would be done with signed types, the result of a negative dividend could be negative. The invalid delta value is then caught by the following checks, but this means that the pointer update is ignored. To fix this, use a range check as in the other pointer calculations.

2010-05-21ALSA: pcm: fix the fix of the runtime->boundary calculationClemens Ladisch1-2/+7
Commit 7910b4a1db63fefc3d291853d33c34c5b6352e8e in 2.6.34 changed the runtime->boundary calculation to make this value a multiple of both the buffer_size and the period_size, because the latter is assumed by the runtime->hw_ptr_interrupt calculation. However, due to the lack of a ioctl that could read the software parameters before they are set, the kernel requires that alsa-lib calculates the boundary value, too. The changed algorithm leads to a different boundary value used by alsa-lib, which makes, e.g., mplayer fail to play a 44.1 kHz file because the silence_size parameter is now invalid; bug report: <https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=5015>. This patch reverts the change to the boundary calculation, and instead fixes the hw_ptr_interrupt calculation to be period-aligned regardless of the boundary value.

2010-01-26ALSA: pcm_lib - return back hw_ptr_interruptJaroslav Kysela1-2/+5
Clemens Ladisch noted for hw_ptr_removal in "cleanup & merge hw_ptr update functions" commit: "It is possible for the status/delay ioctls to be called when the sound card's pointer register alreay shows a position at the beginning of the new period, but immediately before the interrupt is actually executed. (This happens regularly on a SMP machine with mplayer.) When that happens, the code thinks that the position must be at least one period ahead of the current position and drops an entire buffer of data." Return back the hw_ptr_interrupt variable. The last interrupt pointer is always computed from the latest hw_ptr instead of tracking it separately (in this case all hw_ptr checks and modifications might influence also hw_ptr_interrupt and it is difficult to keep it consistent).

This patch fixes these issues. - check file->f_flags in snd_pcm_drain() properly - when O_NONBLOCK is set, PCM core sets the stream(s) to DRAIN state but quits ioctl immediately without waiting the whole drain; the caller can sync the drain manually via poll() Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
