ALSA: add DSD formats

2013-04-18T08:02:33Z

This patch adds two formats for Direct Stream Digital (DSD), a pulse-density encoding format which is described here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_Stream_Digital DSD operates on 2.8, 5.6 or 11.2MHz sample rates and as a 1-bit stream. The two new types added by this patch describe streams that are capable of handling DSD samples in DOP format as 8-bit or in 16-bit (or at a x8 or x16 data rate, respectively). DSD itself specifies samples in *bit*, while DOP and ALSA handle them as *bytes*. Hence, a factor of 8 or 16 has to be applied for the sample rare configuration, according to the following table: configured hardware 176.4KHz 352.8kHz 705.6KHz <---- sample rate 8-bit 2.8MHz 5.6MHz 16-bit 2.8Mhz 5.6MHz 11.2MHz `-----------------------------' actual DSD sample rates Signed-off-by: Daniel Mack Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai

ALSA: core: fix 64-bit SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_STATUS ABI breakage

2012-10-28T08:52:37Z

Commit 4eeaaeaea (ALSA: core: add hooks for audio timestamps) added the new audio_tstamp field to struct snd_pcm_status. However, struct timespec requires 64-bit alignment, so the 64-bit compiler would insert 32 bits of padding before this field, which broke SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_STATUS with error messages like this: kernel: unknown ioctl = 0x80984120 To solve this, insert the padding explicitly so that it can be taken into account when calculating the ABI structure size.

ALSA: core: add hooks for audio timestamps

2012-10-23T14:13:48Z

ALSA did not provide any direct means to infer the audio time for A/V sync and system/audio time correlations (eg. PulseAudio). Applications had to track the number of samples read/written and add/subtract the number of samples queued in the ring buffer. This accounting led to small errors, typically several samples, due to the two-step process. Computing the audio time in the kernel is more direct, as all the information is available in the same routines. Also add new .audio_wallclock routine to enable fine-grain synchronization between monotonic system time and audio hardware time. Using the wallclock, if supported in hardware, allows for a much better sub-microsecond precision and a common drift tracking for all devices sharing the same wall clock (master clock).
