Recent code changes for HD-audio on HG repo

[Claude Michel]

Hi,

I have done come test of the new suspend/resume capabilities.
However suspend failed to correctly work on my laptop (dell d630).
You must note that there is a few trouble issues with sound on this laptop:
the snd_hda_intel driver correctly detect a STAC9205 and get the default
pin configuration from the bios. So far, so good ... however, pin B is by
default configured as line out and is working as such. But, it does not
correctly work with an external microphone as it need a vref. So, 
instead of using the
bios settings, I use the windows default settings. This is not perfectly
working : I usually get some glinches that disappear after a logout/login
procedure. Nothing significant appears from a diff between 
/proc/asound/card0/codec0
before and after this procedure ...

Now let talk about the suspend failure. The suspend procedure (which was 
previously
working) produce a bug (I was not able to catch the message at this 
stage. This is a
partial and hand written report ..):
Bug: unable to handle kernel NULL Pointer deferred at virtual address 0000
....

By the way, I am running mandriva 2007.1 with kernel 2.6.17-14mdv.

I have some spare cycles to look into this over the weekend.  Please
send me the output from
http://bulletproof.servebeer.com/alsa/scripts/alsa-info.sh .
We can take this off-list and I can send you some test patches.

Thanks,

Tobin

Could you copy the exact output of these call traces?

I guess it's a problem with 2.6.17 kernel.  Maybe the wrapper for the
new kernel API in alsa-driver tree is somehow broken.  Check compiler
warnings especially for the compilation of hda_codec.c, too.

I didn't get oops, at least.  Tthere was another bug that got fixed 
today, so please update to the latest version from
hg.alsa-project.org (not from hg-mirror).

[Nicola Fagnani]

As you said, the patch didn't solve the problem.
To test audio I used this simple command:

aplay < /bin/bash

but if there is no audio output for a while, executing it produces no noise.
When I said the sound goes mute, I meant there is no sound, not that some
audio channel is muted.

If I set the power_save_controller=0 module option the sound works always, 
so these are the details of my hardware:

Ah, so you mean that the sound goes away once after 10 second inactive
state that results in the automatic power-off?
I thought you meaning that the sound vanishes suddenly _during_
playing back.

Are you sure that you passed power_save_controller=0, not
power_save=0?  See below.

OK, it's an Intel Mac, right?  Then maybe the culprit is the missing
GPIO initialization.  It's done only at creation time.
Did you get the PM suspend/resume working with this machine?
I guess you'll have the same problem, too.

Anyway, try the patch below.  Hopefully it fixes the power-save
problem too.

Yes, I set power_save_controller=0. This should have disabled the  
power save
timeout, preventing the call of azx_stop_chip().

Right, I forgot that initialization and in fact the sound never  
worked after a
suspend.

Yes, it does. :-) Great work!
It fixes suspend too :-D

So, GPIO isn't reset as long as the controller alive.  It sounds
reasonable.

Thanks for confirmation.  I committed it now to HG tree.

Recent code changes for HD-audio on HG repo

[nicfagn]

I tested the alsa-driver-hg20070814 snapshot on my system and after the power save timeout (10 secs) the sound stops working.
I am on an iMac 24''(2006) with hda and realtek ALC885 and Ubuntu Gutsy with a 2.6.22-9 kernel.
If I can help in some way, let me know.

Thanks

Try hg20070815.  Some bugs were fixed yesterday :)

Sorry, but hg20070815 still not working. After 10 seconds the sound  
goes mute.
hg20070812 is the last snapshot where the sound worked as usual, but  
that didn't include the fix for the test at the entry of the  
azx_stop_chip() function in hda_intel.c, so the code in that function  
was always skipped and the azx_init_chip() function was called only  
once.
What these functions do is clear enough from their names, but the low  
level details are a bit too much in depth for me. :-)
Is there anything I could check or test to help?

Thanks

Which hardware, which codec and what mixer setting?
How did you check it went to mute?

Try to add printk in hda_power_up(), hda_power_down(), and
hda_power_work() functions to show the current codec->power_count
and codec->power_on values.  The up and down have to be called at each
PCM open and close, respecitvely.  Also the access to each mixer
element invokes up and down, too.

When the counts of all codecs go to zero, azx_power_notify() calls
azx_stop_chip().  OTOH, when a codec is powered on, azx_power_notify()
calls azx_init_chip() again.  If these functions get called properly,
then there must be a problem in the initialization / resume phase.

You can set power_save_controller=0 module option to disable the call
of azx_stop_chip().  If this cures the problem, then the problem is in
the resume of the controller chip.  If not, it's in another place,
e.g. the resume of codec registers.  So, it's important to know the
detail of your hardware.  The current driver works fine on my
systems.

BTW, the patch below is a fix I forgot to apply (now already on HG
tree), but it shouldn't influence on the "mute after 10 seconds"
behavior.

Added flush_scheduled_work() in snd_hda_codec_free() to make sure that
the all work is gone.  Also, optimized the condition to schedule the
delayed work in snd_hda_power_down().

Recent code changes for HD-audio on HG repo

[Takashi Iwai]

Hi,

right now I committed a series of patches for HD-audio driver to HG
repository.  There are two big changes:

- The suspend/resume code is rewritten

  Now the driver uses cached register values to restore the last
status.  It's much cleaner than the previous code, and should work
better.  But, I couldn't test it on all existing laptops.
So, please test and report any positive/negative feedbacks.

- New POWER_SAVE kconfig

  The driver has POWER_SAVE confiugration.  When enabled (it's so if
you build from alsa-driver tree), the driver turns off the codec and
the controller chips when not used, and turn on again dynamically on
demand.  Good for laptops, good for mother earth! :)

The feature can be enabled/diabled even on the fly via "power_save"
module option of snd-hda-intel.  For disabling it, write 0 to
/sys/modules/snd_hda_intel/parameters/power_save for disabling it,
or pass power_save=0 in modprobe option (or its configuration).

Again, please give any positive/negative feedbacks, as I couldn't test
many devices.


thanks,

Takashi
