Subject: [PATCH 7.3.y 1/2] ALSA: usb-audio: keep MIDI input running for Roland TD-11
Date: Tue, 10 Nov 2026 07:27:03 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261110122659.1155489-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261107050341-failed-7.3-19b42c1fff7f@kernel.org>

From: Nicholas Hobson <nicholas.hobson@outlook.com>

[ Upstream commit 2e4c9ab2574eeaa7b893c7d35b4a9f60fd681ddd ]

The TD-11 hands MIDI handling off to the host once connected via
USB. If no MIDI input port is opened on the host, the device itself
becomes unusable as a standalone instrument until its input is
serviced, independent of anything happening on the computer.

Add a per-device keep_input_running flag, set for the TD-11 in
snd_usbmidi_detect_roland(), and check it alongside the existing
opened[1] check in snd_usbmidi_input_start()/snd_usbmidi_input_stop()
so that input is started at device creation and never stopped for
these devices, regardless of whether a client has the input port
open.
