Subject: Direct use of the DMA buffer?
Date: Mon, 20 Feb 2012 00:11:43 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4F4181AF.1060303@ivitera.com> (raw)

Hello,

Please excuse my ignorance, but is it possible for an application to
directly use/output to the DMA buffer allocated by the kernel in
hw_params? Something like using the actual DMA buffer in the
snd_pcm_writei function, without copying the data in alsa-lib/driver PCM
midle layer (?), just managing the pointers.

Only a theoretical question though, no plans on my side :)

Thanks a lot for even a short No :-)

Best regards,

Pavel.
