2015-03-21ALSA: ControlName.txt: Add 'Analogue' as a prefix for volume controlsHoward Mitchell
Currently 'Playback Volume' is the correct way to express an analogue volume control. However, this control name has initialisation defaults applied when using 'alsactl restore' and in some cases this is not appropriate. An example would be a control that has a selection of 0db and -6dB of gain that is intended to set the fullscale ouput voltage of a DAC. The TI pcm512x family of DAcs have such a control. In this case the device/driver reset defaults are preferred. Signed-off-by: Howard Mitchell <hm@hmbedded.co.uk> Acked-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Mark Brown <broonie@kernel.org>

2015-02-20ALSA: core: selection of audio_tstamp type and accuracy reportsPierre-Louis Bossart
Audio timestamps can be extracted from sample counters, wall clocks, PHC clocks (Ethernet AVB), on-demand synchronized snapshots. This patch provides the ability to report timestamping capabilities, select timestamp types and retrieve timestamp accuracy, if supported. Details can be found in Documentations/sound/alsa/timestamping.txt This functionality is introduced by reclaiming the reserved_aligned field introduced by commit9c7066aef4a5eb8e4063de28f06c508bf6f2963a in snd_pcm_status to provide userspace with selection/query capabilities. Additional driver_tstamp and audio_tstamp_accuracy fields are also added. snd_pcm_mmap_status remains a read-only structure with only the audio timestamp value accessible from user space. The selection of audio timestamp type is done through snd_pcm_status only This commit does not impact ABI and does not impact the default behavior. By default audio timestamp is aligned with hw_pointer and reports the DMA position. Backwards compatibility is handled by using the HDAudio wall clock for playback and the hw_ptr for all other cases. For timestamp selection a new STATUS_EXT ioctl is introduced with read/write parameters. Alsa-lib will be modified to make use of STATUS_EXT.

2014-11-04ALSA: pcm: Add xrun_injection proc entryTakashi Iwai
This patch adds a new proc entry for PCM substreams to inject an XRUN. When a PCM substream is running and any value is written to its xrun_injection proc file, the driver triggers XRUN. This is a useful feature for debugging XRUN and error handling code paths. Note that this entry is enabled only when CONFIG_SND_PCM_XRUN_DEBUG is set. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
2014-11-04ALSA: pcm: Replace PCM hwptr tracking with tracepointsTakashi Iwai
ALSA PCM core has a mechanism tracking the PCM hwptr updates for analyzing XRUNs. But its log is limited (up to 10) and its log output is a kernel message, which is hard to handle. In this patch, the hwptr logging is moved to the tracing infrastructure instead of its own. Not only the hwptr updates but also XRUN and hwptr errors are recorded on the trace log, so that user can see such events at the exact timing. The new "snd_pcm" entry will appear in the tracing events: # ls -F /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/snd_pcm enable filter hw_ptr_error/ hwptr/ xrun/ The hwptr is for the regular hwptr update events. An event trace looks like: aplay-26187 [004] d..3 4012.834761: hwptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: POS: pos=488, old=0, base=0, period=1024, buf=16384 "POS" shows the hwptr update by the explicit position update call and "IRQ" means the hwptr update by the interrupt, i.e. snd_pcm_period_elapsed() call. The "pos" is the passed ring-buffer offset by the caller, "old" is the previous hwptr, "base" is the hwptr base position, "period" and "buf" are period- and buffer-size of the target PCM substream. (Note that the hwptr position displayed here isn't the ring-buffer offset. It increments up to the PCM position boundary.) The XRUN event appears similarly, but without "pos" field. The hwptr error events appear with the PCM identifier and its reason string, such as "Lost interrupt?". The XRUN and hwptr error reports on kernel message are still left, can be turned on/off via xrun_debug proc like before. But the bit 3, 4, 5 and 6 bits of xrun_debug proc are dropped by this patch. Also, along with the change, the message strings have been reformatted to be a bit more consistent. Last but not least, the hwptr reporting is enabled only when CONFIG_SND_PCM_XRUN_DEBUG is set.

2014-06-25ALSA: hda - Adjust speaker HPF and add LED support for HP Spectre 13Takashi Iwai
HP Spectre 13 has the IDT 92HD95 codec, and BIOS seems to set the default high-pass filter in some "safer" range, which results in the very soft tone from the built-in speakers in contrast to Windows. Also, the mute LED control is missing, since 92HD95 codec still has no HP-specific fixups for GPIO setups. This patch adds these missing features: the HPF is adjusted by the vendor-specific verb, and the LED is set up from a DMI string (but with the default polarity = 0 assumption due to the incomplete BIOS on the given machine).

2013-07-29ALSA: hda - Fix invalid multi-io creation on VAIO-Z laptopsTakashi Iwai
VAIO-Z laptops need to use the specific DAC for the speaker output by some unknown reason although the codec itself supports the flexible connection. So we implemented a workaround by a new flag, no_primary_hp, for assigning the speaker pin first. This worked until 3.8 kernel, but it got broken because the driver learned for a better multi-io pin mapping, and not it can assign two mic pins for multi-io. Since the multi-io requires to be the primary output, the hp and two mic pins are assigned in prior to the speaker in the end. Although the machine has two mic pins, one of them is used as a noise- canceling headphone, thus it's no real retaskable mic jack. Thus, at best, we can disable the multi-io assignment and make the parser behavior back to the state before the multi-io. This patch adds again a new flag, no_multi_io, to indicate that the device has no multi-io capability, and set it in the fixup for VAIO-Z. The no_multi_io flag itself can be used generically, added via a helper line, too.

2013-07-29ALSA: hda - Remove analog mic pin override from STAC9228 dell-bios quirkTakashi Iwai
The current fixup for dell-bios model with STAC9228 codec contains the override of pin 0x0c for analog mic. But this is actually just adding a bogus pin and confuses the parser. Better to remove it for the auto-mic switching. Meanwhile, for a possible regression, keep the old configuration as model=dell-bios-amic, so that people can test it again quickly.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound into for-next ASoC: Updates for v3.10 A bunch of changes here, the most interesting one subsystem wise being Morimoto-san's work to create snd_soc_component which doesn't do much for now but will be pretty important going forwards: - Add a new component object type which will form the basis of moving to a more generic handling of SoC and off-SoC components, contributed by Kuninori Morimoto. - A fairly large set of cleanups for the dmaengine integration from Lars-Peter Clausen, starting to move towards being able to have a generic driver based on the library. - Performance optimisations to DAPM from Ryo Tsutsui. - Support for mixer control sharing in DAPM from Stephen Warren. - Multiplatform ARM cleanups from Arnd Bergmann. - New CODEC drivers for AK5385 and TAS5086 from Daniel Mack.
2013-04-04Revert "ALSA: hda - Allow power_save_controller option override DCAPS"Takashi Iwai
This reverts commit 6ab317419c62850a71e2adfd1573e5ee87d8774f. The commit [6ab317419c: ALSA: hda - Allow power_save_controller option override DCAPS] changed the behavior of power_save_controller so that it can override the driver capability. This assumed that this option is rarely changed dynamically unlike power_save option. Too naive. It turned out that the user-space power-management tool tries to set power_save_controller option to 1 together with power_save option without knowing what's actually doing. This enabled forcibly the runtime PM of the controller, which is known to be broken om many chips thus disabled as default. So, the only sane fix is to revert this commit again. It was intended to ease debugging/testing for runtime PM enablement, but obviously we need another way for it.

For following the standard, define more channel map positions and shuffle the items a bit: - As both PulseAudio and gstreamer define MONO channel position explicitly, we should follow that, too. The mono streams point to this channel position unless they are explicitly assigned to certain channel positions. - Top-front-* and Top-rear-* positions are added, carried from PulseAudio's definitions. - Move NA and MONO definitions at the top of table right after UNKNOWN, since these are more abstract in comparison with other practical positions.
