Hi, all!
Please find the next version of the ABI for the PV sound
after addressing review comments.
N.B.: after changing tabs to spaces Linux kernel is now not
so happy:
check patch says:
NOTE: Whitespace errors detected.
total: 19 errors, 42 warnings, 705 lines checked
Thank you,
Oleksandr Andrushchenko

+ * Feature and Parameter Negotiation
+ * =================================
+ * The two halves of a Para-virtual sound card driver utilize nodes within the
+ * XenStore to communicate capabilities and to negotiate operating parameters.
+ * This section enumerates these nodes which reside in the respective front and
+ * backend portions of the XenStore, following the XenBus convention.
+ *
+ * All data in the XenStore is stored as strings. Nodes specifying numeric
+ * values are encoded in decimal. Integer value ranges listed below are
+ * expressed as fixed sized integer types capable of storing the conversion
+ * of a properly formated node string, without loss of information.
+ *
+ *****************************************************************************
+ * Backend XenBus Nodes
+ *****************************************************************************
+ *
+ *-------------------------------- Addressing ---------------------------------
+ *
+ * Indices used to address frontends, driver instances, cards,
+ * devices and streams.
+ *
+ * frontend_id
+ * Values: <uint>
+ *
+ * Domain ID of the sound frontend.
+ *
+ * drv_idx
+ * Values: <uint>
+ *
+ * Zero based contiguous index of the virtualized sound driver instance in
+ * this domain. Multiple PV drivers are allowed in the domain
+ * at the same time.
+ *
+ * dev_id
+ * Values: <uint>
+ *
+ * Unique device ID.
+ * Doesn't have to be zero based and/or to be contiguous.
+ *
+ * stream_idx
+ * Values: <uint>
+ *
+ * Zero based contiguous index of the stream of the device.
+ *
+ * Example for the frontend running in domain 5, instance of the driver
+ * in the front is 0 (single or first PV driver), device id 2,
+ * first stream (0):
+ * /local/domain/<frontend_id>/device/vsnd/<drv_idx>/
+ * device/<dev_id>/stream/<stream_idx>/type = "p"
+ * /local/domain/5/device/vsnd/0/device/2/stream/0/type = "p"
+ *
+ *------------------------------- PCM settings --------------------------------
+ *
+ * Every virtualized sound frontend has set of devices and streams, each
+ * is individually configured. Part of the PCM configuration can be defined at
+ * higher level and be fully or partially re-used by the underlying layers.
+ * These configuration values are:
+ * o number of channels (min/max)
+ * o supported sample rates
+ * o supported sample formats.
+ * E.g. one can define these values for the whole driver, device or stream.
+ * Every underlying layer in turn can re-define some or all of them to better
+ * fit its needs. For example, driver may define number of channels to be
+ * in [1; 8] range, and some particular stream may be limited to [1; 2] only.
+ * The rule is that the underlying layer must be a subset of the upper layer
+ * range.
+ *
+ * Note: if any of the values are not defined then PV driver should use
+ * its default values instead.
+ *
+ * channels-min
+ * Values: <uint>
+ *
+ * The minimum amount of channels that is supported.
+ * Must be at least 1. If not defined then use frontend's default.
+ *
+ * channels-max
+ * Values: <uint>
+ *
+ * The maximum amount of channels that is supported.
+ * Must be at least <channels-min>. If not defined then use frontend's
+ * default.
+ *
+ * sample-rates
+ * Values: <list of uints>
+ *
+ * List of supported sample rates separated by XENSND_LIST_SEPARATOR.
+ * If not defined then use frontend's default. Sample rates are expressed
+ * as a list of decimal values w/o any ordering requirement.
+ *
+ * sample-formats
+ * Values: <list of XENSND_PCM_FORMAT_XXX_STR>
+ *
+ * List of supported sample formats separated by XENSND_LIST_SEPARATOR.
+ * If not defined then use frontend's default.
+ *
+ * buffer-size
+ * Values: <uint>
+ *
+ * The maximum size in octets of the buffer to allocate per stream.
+ *
+ * Example configuration:
+ *
+ * Driver configuration used by all streams:
+ * /local/domain/5/device/vsnd/0/sample-formats = "s8;u8;s16_le;s16_be"
+ * Stream overrides sample rates supported:
+ * /local/domain/5/device/vsnd/0/device/2/stream/0/sample-rates =
+ * "8000;22050;44100;48000"
+ *
+ *----------------------- Virtual sound card settings --------------------------
+ * short-name
+ * Values: <char[32]>
+ *
+ * Short name of the virtual sound card. Optional.
+ *
+ * long-name
+ * Values: <char[80]>
+ *
+ * Long name of the virtual sound card. Optional.
+ *
+ * For example,
+ * /local/domain/5/device/vsnd/0/short-name = "Virtual audio"
+ * /local/domain/5/device/vsnd/0/long-name =
+ * "Virtual audio at center stack"
+ *
+ *----------------------------- Device settings --------------------------------
+ * name
+ * Values: <char[80]>
+ *
+ * Name of the sound device within the virtual sound card. Optional.
+ *
+ * For example,
+ * /local/domain/5/device/vsnd/0/device/0/name = "General analog"
+ *
+ *----------------------------- Stream settings -------------------------------
+ *
+ * type
+ * Values: "p", "c"
+ *
+ * Stream type: "p" - playback stream, "c" - capture stream
+ *
+ * If both capture and playback are needed then two streams need to be
+ * defined under the same device. For example,
+ * /local/domain/5/device/vsnd/0/device/0/stream/0/type = "p"
+ * /local/domain/5/device/vsnd/0/device/0/stream/1/type = "c"
+ *
+ *****************************************************************************
+ * Frontend XenBus Nodes
+ *****************************************************************************
+ *
+ *----------------------- Request Transport Parameters -----------------------
+ *
+ * These are per stream.
+ *
+ * event-channel
+ * Values: <uint>
+ *
+ * The identifier of the Xen event channel used to signal activity
+ * in the ring buffer.
+ *
+ * ring-ref
+ * Values: <uint>
+ *
+ * The Xen grant reference granting permission for the backend to map
+ * a sole page in a single page sized ring buffer.
+ *
+ * index
+ * Values: <uint>
+ *
+ * After stream initialization it is assigned a unique ID (within the front
+ * driver), so every stream of the frontend can be identified by the
+ * backend by this ID. This is not equal to stream_idx as the later is
+ * zero based within a device, but this index is contiguous within the
+ * driver.

Presumably your primary problem here is that you're patching the
wrong tree:

This wants to be xen/include/public/io/sndif.h in the main Xen tree.
The Linux tree would get updated only by propagating whatever
lands in the Xen tree, and whether that involves re-formatting is
up to you and the Linux maintainers.

Along with the target tree (and hence path) change, these also want
to become ""-style #include-s.

No double underscores please at the beginning of these names;
preferably none at all (as field names may collide with file scope
object-like macros).

This is not allowed in C89, and I think not even in newer version (i.e.
it's a GNU extension). There are a couple of places where we already
deal with similar constructs, so please take those into consideration
when dealing with the problem here.

The comment ought to be correct - did you verify this is permitted
in e.g. C99? I don't think it is, and I've referred to C89 only to give
you an understanding with what standard the header as a whole
is expected to comply (i.e. to avoid you using C99 constructs
elsewhere).

Hmm, you've indeed changed the way you indent, but there are
more style issues here: The inner union's members aren't all
indented equally, and (perhaps as a result) the closing braces
are indented too much.

This lacks explicit tail padding.

C99 says (6.2.5.20):
" An array type describes a contiguously allocated nonempty set of
objects with a particular member object type,"

you are right, C99 says ( 6.2.5.20):
" A structure type describes a sequentially allocated *nonempty* set of
member objects"
C11 doesn't say anything that it is allowed
So, I will change in the comments *C89 concern* to *(C99 6.2.5.20)*

Well, I'd prefer if you omitted this - C language details don't really
belong here. And of course all this would be moot if these dummy
structures weren't there in the first place.

So, you mean instead of
/* place holder, remove if changing the structure (C99 6.2.5.20) */
I put
