Subject: [PATCH v2] ALSA: pcm: update state after xrun
Date: Thu, 12 Nov 2026 10:46:36 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261112094636.13671-1-mikachu@gmail.com> (raw)
If the snd_pcm_update_hw_ptr call from snd_pcm_status is what triggers
the xrun state (eg, as opposed to an IRQ), the returned status->state
was stale and told userspace the device was still playing, so they could
get confused about device state and hang indefinitely.
Closes: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=222201

Changes from v1:
incorporate feedback from Sashiko and Takashi:
also set the trigger_tstamp since it can change in this scenario.
check return value to determine if we need to update the status fields.
PS Sorry it took a while to send the respin, I don't have a dedicated
testing machine, and I didn't have an opportunity to reboot to test it
until now.
