I enabled debug logs in the sound layer:
echo "file sound/* +fpm" > /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control

and sprinkled dump_stack() in several driver callbacks.

When I run 'tinycap /tmp/earc.wav -t 10 -r 44100 -b 32'
I see the open/SyS_openat call and the capture ioctl call
which together generate calls to
1) dpcm_fe_dai_open
2) dpcm_fe_dai_hw_params
3) dpcm_fe_dai_prepare
4) dpcm_fe_dai_trigger

But everything looks "synchronous", as in "reaction to user-space commands".
I don't see how "asynchronous" events are dealt with, such as the stream
params changing while a capture is active?

Regards.
