Hi,
some functions take an int parameter called dir (e.g.:
snd_pcm_hw_params_set_rate()).
What is the meaning of that parameter?
Regards
FAU

its to let you know if the actual value set is above, below or equal
to the one you asked for.

But how could this be in this case:
int snd_pcm_hw_params_set_rate(snd_pcm_t *pcm, snd_pcm_hw_params_t *params,
unsigned int val, int dir);
dir is not a pointer?
By the way, my impression was that only functions with _near postfix are allowed
to choose a value
different to the requested one?
