Subject: [PATCH] [ML403-AC97CR] Fix capture/periodic overrun bug.
Date: Fri, 02 Nov 2007 18:52:19 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1194025939.29723.22.camel@localhost> (raw)

Hi all,

this is a bug fix for my ALSA driver I posted in August. Since then I
hadn't the time to look at it, but some days ago I took some time and
found the reason why there are so many overruns while capturing.
Furthermore, this patch removes the one "heavy" printk for capture
debugging.

From: Joachim Foerster <JOFT@gmx.de>

We have to do fairly accurate counting of the minimal periods, instead
of being lazy and just setting the number to zero as soon as one period
elapses.
