2012-05-11ALSA: pcm - Optimize the call of snd_pcm_update_hw_ptr() in read/write loopTakashi Iwai
In the PCM read/write loop, the driver calls snd_pcm_update_hw_ptr() at each time at the beginning of the loop. Russell King reported that this hogs CPU significantly. The current code assumes that the pointer callback is very fast and cheap, also not too much fine grained. It's not true in all cases. When the pointer advances short samples while the read/write copy has been performed, the driver updates the hw_ptr and gets avail > 0 again. Then it tries to read/write these small chunks. This repeats until the avail really gets to zero. For avoiding this situation, a simple workaround is to call snd_pcm_update_hw_ptr() only once at starting the loop, assuming that the read/write copy is performed fast enough. If the available count becomes short, it goes to snd_pcm_wait_avail() anyway, and this processes right.

2011-09-15ALSA: pcm - fix race condition in wait_for_avail()Arjan van de Ven
wait_for_avail() in pcm_lib.c has a race in it (observed in practice by an Intel validation group). The function is supposed to return once space in the buffer has become available, or if some timeout happens. The entity that creates space (irq handler of sound driver and some such) will do a wake up on a waitqueue that this function registers for. However there are two races in the existing code 1) If space became available between the caller noticing there was no space and this function actually sleeping, the wakeup is missed and the timeout condition will happen instead 2) If a wakeup happened but not sufficient space became available, the code will loop again and wait for more space. However, if the second wake comes in prior to hitting the schedule_timeout_interruptible(), it will be missed, and potentially you'll wait out until the timeout happens. The fix consists of using more careful setting of the current state (so that if a wakeup happens in the main loop window, the schedule_timeout() falls through) and by checking for available space prior to going into the schedule_timeout() loop, but after being on the waitqueue and having the state set to interruptible.

2011-05-26ALSA: PCM - Don't check DMA time-out too shortlyTakashi Iwai
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.

2011-05-18ALSA: sound, core, pcm_lib: xrun_log: log also in_interruptBen Gardiner
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 Anderson
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 Ladisch
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 Ladisch
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 Kysela
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.

2010-06-28ALSA: pcm_lib: avoid timing jitter in snd_pcm_read/write()David Dillow
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 Ladisch
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 Ladisch
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 Kysela
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).
