Hi,

This patchset is a revised version of my former RFC.


[alsa-devel] [PATCH RFC 00/21] ALSA: pcm: add tracepoints for PCM params operation
http://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2017-May/120548.html

In ALSA PCM interface, applications can get hardware capability as
'struct snd_pcm_hw_params' type of data returned by a call of ioctl(2)
with SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_REFINE/SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_PARAMS' commands.
Results of these commands should be the same in a certain conditions but
actually it's not.

This is a part of layout of the structure.

struct snd_pcm_hw_params {
    ...
    unsigned int info;
    unsigned int msbits;
    unsigned int rate_num;
    unsigned int rate_den;
    snd_pcm_uframes_t fifo_size;
    ...
};

For example, although the 'msbits', 'rate_num' and 'rate_den' fields are
filled in a result of HW_REFINE command conditionally, they're never
filled in a result of HW_PARAMS command. This seems a bug.

This patchset attempts to fix the bug. This affects userspace applications
in cotents of the result, but it's acceptrable with a merit for the
applications to get enough parameters.

Takashi Sakamoto (3):
  ALSA: pcm: use helper functions to refer parameters as constants
  ALSA: pcm: calculate non-mask/non-interval parameters always when
    possible
  ALSA: pcm: move fixup of info flag after selecting single parameters
