driver. The document focuses mainly on PCI soundcards.

|
In the case of other device types, the API might
|
|
|
|
be different, too. However, at least the ALSA kernel API is
|
|
|
|
consistent, and therefore it would be still a bit help for
|
|
|
|
writing them.

This document targets people who already have enough

C language skills and have basic linux kernel programming

|
|
|
knowledge. This document doesn't explain the general
|
|
|

topic of linux kernel coding and doesn't cover low-level
|

driver implementation details. It only describes

2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|

the standard way to write a PCI sound driver on ALSA.

If you are already familiar with the older ALSA ver.0.5.x API, you
|
|
|
|
can check the drivers such as <filename>sound/pci/es1938.c</filename> or
|
|
|
|
<filename>sound/pci/maestro3.c</filename> which have also almost the same
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
code-base in the ALSA 0.5.x tree, so you can compare the differences.

One is the trees provided as a tarball or via cvs from the
|
|
|
|
ALSA's ftp site, and another is the 2.6 (or later) Linux kernel
|
|
|
|
tree. To synchronize both, the ALSA driver tree is split into
|
|
|
|
two different trees: alsa-kernel and alsa-driver. The former
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
contains purely the source code for the Linux 2.6 (or later)
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
tree. This tree is designed only for compilation on 2.6 or
|
|
|
|
later environment. The latter, alsa-driver, contains many subtle
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
files for compiling ALSA drivers outside of the Linux kernel tree,
|
|
|
|
wrapper functions for older 2.2 and 2.4 kernels, to adapt the latest kernel API,
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
and additional drivers which are still in development or in
|
|
|
|
tests. The drivers in alsa-driver tree will be moved to
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
alsa-kernel (and eventually to the 2.6 kernel tree) when they are
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
finished and confirmed to work fine.

The file tree structure of ALSA driver is depicted below. Both
|
|
|
|
alsa-kernel and alsa-driver have almost the same file
|
|
|
|
structure, except for <quote>core</quote> directory. It's
|
|
|
|
named as <quote>acore</quote> in alsa-driver tree.

This directory contains code shared among different drivers

The <function>probe</function> callback and other component-constructors which are called

from the <function>probe</function> callback should be defined with

the <parameter>__devinit</parameter> prefix. You

A card record is the headquarters of the soundcard. It manages

2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00

the whole list of devices (components) on the soundcard, such as
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
PCM, mixers, MIDI, synthesizer, and so on. Also, the card

record holds the ID and the name strings of the card, manages

the root of proc files, and controls the power-management states

After the card is created, you can attach the components

2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00

(devices) to the card instance. In an ALSA driver, a component is

represented as a struct <structname>snd_device</structname> object.

A component can be a PCM instance, a control interface, a raw
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|

MIDI interface, etc. Each such instance has one component

<function>snd_device_new()</function> inside its

callback pointers. Hence, you don't need to take care of

calling a destructor for such a component.

<function>snd_card_register()</function> is called, the

For releasing the card instance, you can call simply

2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
<function>snd_card_free()</function>. As mentioned earlier, all

2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00

components are released automatically by this call.

|
|
|
|
<function>snd_mychip_dev_free</function> and

|
|
|
<function>snd_mychip_free</function>) cannot be defined with
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
the <parameter>__devexit</parameter> prefix, because they may be
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00

called from the constructor, too, at the false path.

2006-06-23 20:38:26 +08:00

<function>snd_card_free_when_closed</function>. This one will

Now let's write the corresponding destructor for the resources

above. The role of destructor is simple: disable the hardware

|
|
(if already activated) and release the resources. So far, we
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|

have no hardware part, so the disabling code is not written here.

2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00

Since the irq number can start from 0, you should initialize

chip->irq with a negative value (e.g. -1), so that you can

check the validity of the irq number as above.

<structname>pci_device_id</structname> table for this

The PCM middle layer of ALSA is quite powerful and it is only
|
|
|
|
necessary for each driver to implement the low-level functions

to access its hardware.

For accessing to the PCM layer, you need to include
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
<filename><sound/pcm.h></filename> first. In addition,
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|

<filename><sound/pcm_params.h></filename> might be needed
|

Each card device can have up to four pcm instances. A pcm
|
|
|
|
instance corresponds to a pcm device file. The limitation of
|
|
|
|
number of instances comes only from the available bit size of
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
the Linux's device numbers. Once when 64bit device number is
|
|
|
|
used, we'll have more pcm instances available.

A pcm instance consists of pcm playback and capture streams,
|
|
|
|
and each pcm stream consists of one or more pcm substreams. Some
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
soundcards support multiple playback functions. For example,
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
emu10k1 has a PCM playback of 32 stereo substreams. In this case, at
|
|
|
|
each open, a free substream is (usually) automatically chosen
|
|
|
|
and opened. Meanwhile, when only one substream exists and it was
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
already opened, the successful open will either block
|
|
|
|
or error with <constant>EAGAIN</constant> according to the
|
|
|
|
file open mode. But you don't have to care about such details in your
|
|
|
|
driver. The PCM middle layer will take care of such work.

The <function>snd_pcm_new()</function> function takes four
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
arguments. The first argument is the card pointer to which this
|
|
|
|
pcm is assigned, and the second is the ID string.

|
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|

<para>
|
|
|
|
The third argument (<parameter>index</parameter>, 0 in the
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
above) is the index of this new pcm. It begins from zero. If
|
|
|
|
you create more than one pcm instances, specify the
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
different numbers in this argument. For example,
|
|
|
|
<parameter>index</parameter> = 1 for the second PCM device.
|
|
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
<para>
|
|
|
|
The fourth and fifth arguments are the number of substreams
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
for playback and capture, respectively. Here 1 is used for
|
|
|
|
both arguments. When no playback or capture substreams are available,
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
pass 0 to the corresponding argument.

If a chip supports multiple playbacks or captures, you can
|
|
|
|
specify more numbers, but they must be handled properly in
|
|
|
|
open/close, etc. callbacks. When you need to know which
|
|
|
|
substream you are referring to, then it can be obtained from
|
2005-11-17 22:12:54 +08:00

The destructor for a pcm instance is not always

necessary. Since the pcm device will be released by the middle

|
When the PCM substream is opened, a PCM runtime instance is
|
|
|
|
allocated and assigned to the substream. This pointer is

|
|
|
accessible via <constant>substream->runtime</constant>.

2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00

This runtime pointer holds most information you need

to control the PCM: the copy of hw_params and sw_params configurations, the buffer
|
|
|
|
pointers, mmap records, spinlocks, etc.

these records are supposed to be read-only. Only the PCM

the hardware description (hw), interrupt callbacks

(transfer_ack_xxx), DMA buffer information, and the private

data. Besides, if you use the standard buffer allocation

method via <function>snd_pcm_lib_malloc_pages()</function>,

you don't need to set the DMA buffer information by yourself.

The hardware descriptor (struct <structname>snd_pcm_hardware</structname>)
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00

|
|
contains the definitions of the fundamental hardware

configuration. Above all, you'll need to define this in

|
|
the open callback</citetitle></link>.
|
|
|
|
Note that the runtime instance holds the copy of the
|
|
|
|
descriptor, not the pointer to the existing descriptor. That
|
|
|
|
is, in the open callback, you can modify the copied descriptor
|
|
|
|
(<constant>runtime->hw</constant>) as you need. For example, if the maximum
|
|
|
|
number of channels is 1 only on some chip models, you can
|
|
|
|
still use the same hardware descriptor and change the
|
|
|

channels_max later:

<filename><sound/asound.h></filename> as

<constant>SNDRV_PCM_INFO_XXX</constant>. Here, at least, you

have to specify whether the mmap is supported and which

interleaved format is supported.
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|

When the is supported, add the

2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
<constant>SNDRV_PCM_INFO_MMAP</constant> flag here. When the

hardware supports the interleaved or the non-interleaved
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|

formats, <constant>SNDRV_PCM_INFO_INTERLEAVED</constant> or

2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
<constant>SNDRV_PCM_INFO_NONINTERLEAVED</constant> flag must
|
|
|

be set, respectively. If both are supported, you can set both,
|

too.

2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00

|
<constant>BLOCK_TRANSFER</constant> are specified for the OSS mmap
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
mode. Usually both are set. Of course,
|
|

<constant>MMAP_VALID</constant> is set only if the mmap is

The other possible flags are
|
|
|
|
<constant>SNDRV_PCM_INFO_PAUSE</constant> and
|
|
|
|
<constant>SNDRV_PCM_INFO_RESUME</constant>. The
|
|
|
|
<constant>PAUSE</constant> bit means that the pcm supports the
|
|
|
|
<quote>pause</quote> operation, while the
|
|
|
|
<constant>RESUME</constant> bit means that the pcm supports
|
2005-11-18 00:26:09 +08:00
|
|
|
the full <quote>suspend/resume</quote> operation.
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
If the <constant>PAUSE</constant> flag is set,
|
2005-11-18 00:26:09 +08:00
|
|
|
the <structfield>trigger</structfield> callback below
|
|
|
|
must handle the corresponding (pause push/release) commands.
|

The suspend/resume trigger commands can be defined even without

The <quote>period</quote> is a term that corresponds to
|
|
|
|
a fragment in the OSS world. The period defines the size at
|
|
|
|
which a PCM interrupt is generated. This size strongly
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
depends on the hardware.
|
|
|
|
Generally, the smaller period size will give you more
|
|
|
|
interrupts, that is, more controls.
|
|
|
|
In the case of capture, this size defines the input latency.
|
|
|
|
On the other hand, the whole buffer size defines the
|
|
|
|
output latency for the playback direction.

This specifies the size of the hardware FIFO, but currently it

is neither used in the driver nor in the alsa-lib. So, you

Ok, let's go back again to the PCM runtime records.
|
|
|
|
The most frequently referred records in the runtime instance are
|
|
|
|
the PCM configurations.
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
The PCM configurations are stored in the runtime instance
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
after the application sends <type>hw_params</type> data via
|
|
|
|
alsa-lib. There are many fields copied from hw_params and
|
|
|
|
sw_params structs. For example,
|
|
|
|
<structfield>format</structfield> holds the format type
|
|
|
|
chosen by the application. This field contains the enum value
|
|
|
|
<constant>SNDRV_PCM_FORMAT_XXX</constant>.
|
|
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
|
|
One thing to be noted is that the configured buffer and period
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
sizes are stored in <quote>frames</quote> in the runtime.
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
In the ALSA world, 1 frame = channels * samples-size.
|
|
|
|
For conversion between frames and bytes, you can use the
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
<function>frames_to_bytes()</function> and
|
|
|
|
<function>bytes_to_frames()</function> helper functions.

Also, many software parameters (sw_params) are

stored in frames, too. Please check the type of the field.
|
|
|
|
<type>snd_pcm_uframes_t</type> is for the frames as unsigned
|

integer while <type>snd_pcm_sframes_t</type> is for the frames

<title>DMA Buffer Information</title>
|
|

<para>
|

The DMA buffer is defined by the following four fields,
|
|
|
|
<structfield>dma_area</structfield>,
|
|
|
|
<structfield>dma_addr</structfield>,
|
|
|
|
<structfield>dma_bytes</structfield> and
|
|
|
|
<structfield>dma_private</structfield>.
|
|
|
|
The <structfield>dma_area</structfield> holds the buffer
|
|
|
|
pointer (the logical address). You can call
|
|
|
|
<function>memcpy</function> from/to
|
|
|
|
this pointer. Meanwhile, <structfield>dma_addr</structfield>
|
|
|
|
holds the physical address of the buffer. This field is
|
|
|
|
specified only when the buffer is a linear buffer.
|
|
|
|
<structfield>dma_bytes</structfield> holds the size of buffer
|
|
|
|
in bytes. <structfield>dma_private</structfield> is used for
|
|
|
|
the ALSA DMA allocator.
|
|
|
|
</para>
|

<para>

If you use a standard ALSA function,
|
|
|
|
<function>snd_pcm_lib_malloc_pages()</function>, for
|
|
|
|
allocating the buffer, these fields are set by the ALSA middle
|
|
|
|
layer, and you should <emphasis>not</emphasis> change them by
|
|
|
|
yourself. You can read them but not write them.
|
|
|
|
On the other hand, if you want to allocate the buffer by
|
|
|
|
yourself, you'll need to manage it in hw_params callback.
|
|
|
|
At least, <structfield>dma_bytes</structfield> is mandatory.
|
|
|
|
<structfield>dma_area</structfield> is necessary when the
|
|
|
|
buffer is mmapped. If your driver doesn't support mmap, this
|
|
|
|
field is not necessary. <structfield>dma_addr</structfield>
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
is also optional. You can use
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
<structfield>dma_private</structfield> as you like, too.

|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
return 0 if successful, or a negative error number
|
|
|

such as <constant>-EINVAL</constant>. To choose an appropriate

error number, it is advised to check what value other parts of

<structname>snd_pcm_substream</structname> pointer. To retrieve

the chip record from the given substream instance, you can use the
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|

following macro.

which is a copy of <constant>pcm->private_data</constant>.

You can override the former if you need to assign different data
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00

records per PCM substream. For example, the cmi8330 driver assigns

different private_data for playback and capture directions,

different directions.

Parameters to be initialized are retrieved by

<function>params_xxx()</function> macros. To allocate

2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
buffer, you can call a helper function,

<function>snd_pcm_lib_malloc_pages()</function> is available

See the section <link

Note that this and <structfield>prepare</structfield> callbacks
|

may be called multiple times per initialization.

call these callbacks at each change via its ioctl.

Thus, you need to be careful not to allocate the same buffers

|
|
|
many times, which will lead to memory leaks! Calling the
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
helper function above many times is OK. It will release the
|
|
|

previous buffer automatically when it was already allocated.

Another note is that this callback is non-atomic
|
|
|
|
(schedulable). This is important, because the

|
<structfield>trigger</structfield> callback
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|

is atomic (non-schedulable). That is, mutexes or any

2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|

schedule-related functions are not available in

most cases. These callbacks are used when the hardware buffer

2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00

cannot be in the normal memory space. Some chips have their

own buffer on the hardware which is not mappable. In such a

buffer to the hardware buffer. Or, if the buffer is

This callback is also not mandatory. This callback is called

when the appl_ptr is updated in read or write operations.

Some drivers like emu10k1-fx and cs46xx need to track the

is useful only for such a purpose.

This callback is optional too. This callback is used

mainly for non-contiguous buffers. The mmap calls this

The rest of pcm stuff is the PCM interrupt handler. The
|
|
|
|
role of PCM interrupt handler in the sound driver is to update
|
|
|
|
the buffer position and to tell the PCM middle layer when the
|
|
|
|
buffer position goes across the prescribed period size. To
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
inform this, call the <function>snd_pcm_period_elapsed()</function>
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
function.
|
|
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|

<para>
|
|

There are several types of sound chips to generate the interrupts.

This is the most frequently found type: the hardware
|
|
|
|
generates an interrupt at each period boundary.
|
|
|
|
In this case, you can call
|
|
|
|
<function>snd_pcm_period_elapsed()</function> at each
|
|
|
|
interrupt.

|
</para>

|
|
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
|
|
<function>snd_pcm_period_elapsed()</function> takes the
|
|
|
|
substream pointer as its argument. Thus, you need to keep the
|
|
|
|
substream pointer accessible from the chip instance. For
|
|
|
|
example, define substream field in the chip record to hold the
|
|
|
|
current running substream pointer, and set the pointer value
|
|
|
|
at open callback (and reset at close callback).

If you acquire a spinlock in the interrupt handler, and the

2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
lock is used in other pcm callbacks, too, then you have to
|
|
|
|
release the lock before calling
|
|
|
|
<function>snd_pcm_period_elapsed()</function>, because
|
|
|
|
<function>snd_pcm_period_elapsed()</function> calls other pcm

One of the most important (and thus difficult to debug) problems
|
|
|
|
in kernel programming are race conditions.
|
|
|
|
In the Linux kernel, they are usually avoided via spin-locks, mutexes
|
|
|
|
or semaphores. In general, if a race condition can happen
|
|
|
|
in an interrupt handler, it has to be managed atomically, and you
|
|
|
|
have to use a spinlock to protect the critical session. If the
|
|
|
|
critical section is not in interrupt handler code and
|
|
|
|
if taking a relatively long time to execute is acceptable, you
|
|
|
|
should use mutexes or semaphores instead.

As already seen, some pcm callbacks are atomic and some are
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
not. For example, the <parameter>hw_params</parameter> callback is
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
non-atomic, while <parameter>trigger</parameter> callback is
|
|
|
|
atomic. This means, the latter is called already in a spinlock
|
|
|
|
held by the PCM middle layer. Please take this atomicity into
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
account when you choose a locking scheme in the callbacks.

In the atomic callbacks, you cannot use functions which may call
|
|
|
|
<function>schedule</function> or go to
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
<function>sleep</function>. Semaphores and mutexes can sleep,
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
and hence they cannot be used inside the atomic callbacks
|
|
|
|
(e.g. <parameter>trigger</parameter> callback).
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|

To implement some delay in such a callback, please use

2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
<function>udelay()</function> or <function>mdelay()</function>.

If your chip supports unconventional sample rates, or only the

limited samples, you need to set a constraint for the

condition.

The control interface is used widely for many switches,
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
sliders, etc. which are accessed from user-space. Its most
|
|
|
|
important use is the mixer interface. In other words, since ALSA
|
|
|
|
0.9.x, all the mixer stuff is implemented on the control kernel API.

This patch changes .iface to SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_IFACE_MIXER whre _PCM or
_HWDEP was used in controls that are not associated with a specific PCM
(sub)stream or hwdep device, and changes some controls that got
inconsitent .iface values due to copy+paste errors. Furthermore, it
makes sure that all control that do use _PCM or _HWDEP use the correct
number in the .device field.

2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00

because its role is classified from its name. There are

There are some standards to define the control names. A
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
control is usually defined from the three parts as
|
|
|
|
<quote>SOURCE DIRECTION FUNCTION</quote>.
|
|
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
|
|
The first, <constant>SOURCE</constant>, specifies the source
|
|
|
|
of the control, and is a string such as <quote>Master</quote>,
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
<quote>PCM</quote>, <quote>CD</quote> and
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
<quote>Line</quote>. There are many pre-defined sources.
|
|
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
|
|
The second, <constant>DIRECTION</constant>, is one of the
|
|
|
|
following strings according to the direction of the control:
|
|
|
|
<quote>Playback</quote>, <quote>Capture</quote>, <quote>Bypass
|
|
|
|
Playback</quote> and <quote>Bypass Capture</quote>. Or, it can
|
|
|
|
be omitted, meaning both playback and capture directions.
|
|
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
|
|
The third, <constant>FUNCTION</constant>, is one of the
|
|
|
|
following strings according to the function of the control:
|
|
|
|
<quote>Switch</quote>, <quote>Volume</quote> and
|
|
|
|
<quote>Route</quote>.
|
|

</para>

The access flag is the bitmask which specifies the access type
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
of the given control. The default access type is
|
|
|
|
<constant>SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_ACCESS_READWRITE</constant>,
|
|
|
|
which means both read and write are allowed to this control.
|
|
|
|
When the access flag is omitted (i.e. = 0), it is
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
considered as <constant>READWRITE</constant> access as default.

When the control is read-only, pass
|
|
|
|
<constant>SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_ACCESS_READ</constant> instead.
|

In this case, you don't have to define

2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
the <structfield>put</structfield> callback.
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00

Similarly, when the control is write-only (although it's a rare
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|

case), you can use the <constant>WRITE</constant> flag instead, and

you don't need the <structfield>get</structfield> callback.

If the control value changes frequently (e.g. the VU meter),

<constant>VOLATILE</constant> flag should be given. This means

The <structfield>info</structfield> callback is used to get

detailed information on this control. This must store the

The <structfield>type</structfield> field specifies the type

of the control. There are <constant>BOOLEAN</constant>,

|
<constant>INTEGER</constant>, <constant>ENUMERATED</constant>,

<constant>BYTES</constant>, <constant>IEC958</constant> and

|
<constant>INTEGER64</constant>. The
|
|
|
|
<structfield>count</structfield> field specifies the
|
|
|
|
number of elements in this control. For example, a stereo
|
|
|
|
volume would have count = 2. The
|
|
|
|
<structfield>value</structfield> field is a union, and
|
|
|

the values stored are depending on the type. The boolean and

2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00

Some common info callbacks are available for your convenience:
|
2007-07-26 22:50:09 +08:00
|
|
|
<function>snd_ctl_boolean_mono_info()</function> and
|
|
|
|
<function>snd_ctl_boolean_stereo_info()</function>.
|
|
|
|
Obviously, the former is an info callback for a mono channel
|
|
|
|
boolean item, just like <function>snd_myctl_mono_info</function>
|
|

above, and the latter is for a stereo channel boolean item.

This function takes the card pointer, the event-mask, and the
|
|
|
|
control id pointer for the notification. The event-mask
|
|
|
|
specifies the types of notification, for example, in the above
|
|
|
|
example, the change of control values is notified.
|
2005-11-17 22:12:54 +08:00
|
|
|
The id pointer is the pointer of struct <structname>snd_ctl_elem_id</structname>
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
to be notified.

The ALSA AC97 codec layer is a well-defined one, and you don't
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
have to write much code to control it. Only low-level control
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00

routines are necessary. The AC97 codec API is defined in

<filename>/proc/asound/card0/codec97#0/ac97#0-0</filename> and

Many soundcards have built-in MIDI (MPU401-UART)
|
|
|
|
interfaces. When the soundcard supports the standard MPU401-UART
|
|
|
|
interface, most likely you can use the ALSA MPU401-UART API. The
|
|
|
|
MPU401-UART API is defined in
|
|
|
|
<filename><sound/mpu401.h></filename>.

Some soundchips have a similar but slightly different
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
implementation of mpu401 stuff. For example, emu10k1 has its own
|
|
|
|
mpu401 routines.

The first argument is the card pointer, and the second is the

you can use <constant>MPU401_HW_MPU401</constant>.

The 4th argument is the I/O port address. Many
|
|
|
|
backward-compatible MPU401 have an I/O port such as 0x330. Or, it
|
|
|
|
might be a part of its own PCI I/O region. It depends on the
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
chip design.

The 5th argument is a bitflag for additional information.
|

When the I/O port address above is part of the PCI I/O
|
|

|
region, the MPU401 I/O port might have been already allocated
|
2006-05-23 19:24:30 +08:00
|
|
|
(reserved) by the driver itself. In such a case, pass a bit flag
|
|
|
|
<constant>MPU401_INFO_INTEGRATED</constant>,
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00

and the mpu401-uart layer will allocate the I/O ports by itself.

pass the <constant>MPU401_INFO_INPUT</constant> or

|
|
|
<constant>MPU401_INFO_OUTPUT</constant> bitflag, respectively.

2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00

Usually, the port address corresponds to the command port and

port + 1 corresponds to the data port. If not, you may change

operators (callbacks) for each substream. There are helper

2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
functions to set the operators for all the substreams of a device:

The FM OPL3 is still used in many chips (mainly for backward

ALSA provides several different buffer allocation functions
|
|
|
|
depending on the bus and the architecture. All these have a
|
|
|
|
consistent API. The allocation of physically-contiguous pages is
|
|
|
|
done via
|
|
|
|
<function>snd_malloc_xxx_pages()</function> function, where xxx
|
|
|
|
is the bus type.

|
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
|
|
The allocation of pages with fallback is
|
|
|
|
<function>snd_malloc_xxx_pages_fallback()</function>. This
|
|
|
|
function tries to allocate the specified pages but if the pages
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
are not available, it tries to reduce the page sizes until
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
enough space is found.

Usually, ALSA drivers try to allocate and reserve
|

a large contiguous physical space
|

at the time the module is loaded for the later use.

This is called <quote>pre-allocation</quote>.

As already written, you can call the following function at

<title>External Hardware Buffers</title>
|

|
<para>
|
|
|
|
Some chips have their own hardware buffers and the DMA
|
|
|
|
transfer from the host memory is not available. In such a case,
|
|
|
|
you need to either 1) copy/set the audio data directly to the
|
|
|
|
external hardware buffer, or 2) make an intermediate buffer and
|
|
|
|
copy/set the data from it to the external hardware buffer in
|
|
|
|
interrupts (or in tasklets, preferably).
|
|
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
The first case works fine if the external hardware buffer is large
|
|
|
|
enough. This method doesn't need any extra buffers and thus is
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
more effective. You need to define the
|
|
|
|
<structfield>copy</structfield> and
|
|
|
|
<structfield>silence</structfield> callbacks for
|
|
|
|
the data transfer. However, there is a drawback: it cannot
|
|
|
|
be mmapped. The examples are GUS's GF1 PCM or emu8000's
|
|
|
|
wavetable PCM.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
The second case allows for mmap on the buffer, although you have
|
|
|
|
to handle an interrupt or a tasklet to transfer the data
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
from the intermediate buffer to the hardware buffer. You can find an
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
example in the vxpocket driver.

|
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
Another case is when the chip uses a PCI memory-map
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
region for the buffer instead of the host memory. In this case,
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
mmap is available only on certain architectures like the Intel one.
|
|
|
|
In non-mmap mode, the data cannot be transferred as in the normal
|
|
|
|
way. Thus you need to define the <structfield>copy</structfield> and
|
|
|
|
<structfield>silence</structfield> callbacks as well,
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
as in the cases above. The examples are found in
|
|

The SG-buffer handler will allocate the non-contiguous kernel

pages of the given size and map them onto the virtually contiguous

memory. The virtual pointer is addressed in runtime->dma_area.

The physical address (runtime->dma_addr) is set to zero,

ALSA provides an easy interface for procfs. The proc files are

very useful for debugging. I recommend you set up proc files if

you write a driver and want to get a running status or register
|
|

For the write callback, you can use

<function>snd_info_get_str()</function> to retrieve a string from

If the chip is supposed to work with suspend/resume
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
functions, you need to add power-management code to the
|
|
|
|
driver. The additional code for power-management should be
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
<function>ifdef</function>'ed with
|
|
|
|
<constant>CONFIG_PM</constant>.

If the driver <emphasis>fully</emphasis> supports suspend/resume
|
|
|
|
that is, the device can be
|
|
|
|
properly resumed to its state when suspend was called,
|
|
|
|
you can set the <constant>SNDRV_PCM_INFO_RESUME</constant> flag
|
|
|
|
in the pcm info field. Usually, this is possible when the
|
|
|
|
registers of the chip can be safely saved and restored to
|
|
|
|
RAM. If this is set, the trigger callback is called with
|
|
|
|
<constant>SNDRV_PCM_TRIGGER_RESUME</constant> after the resume
|
|
|
|
callback completes.

|
Even if the driver doesn't support PM fully but
|
|
|
|
partial suspend/resume is still possible, it's still worthy to
|
|
|
|
implement suspend/resume callbacks. In such a case, applications
|
2005-11-18 00:26:09 +08:00
|
|
|
would reset the status by calling
|
|
|
|
<function>snd_pcm_prepare()</function> and restart the stream
|
|
|
|
appropriately. Hence, you can define suspend/resume callbacks
|
|
|
|
below but don't set <constant>SNDRV_PCM_INFO_RESUME</constant>
|
|
|
|
info flag to the PCM.

Note that the trigger with SUSPEND can always be called when
|
2005-11-18 00:26:09 +08:00
|
|
|
<function>snd_pcm_suspend_all</function> is called,
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
regardless of the <constant>SNDRV_PCM_INFO_RESUME</constant> flag.
|
2005-11-18 00:26:09 +08:00
|
|
|
The <constant>RESUME</constant> flag affects only the behavior
|
|
|
|
of <function>snd_pcm_resume()</function>.
|
|
|
|
(Thus, in theory,
|
|
|
|
<constant>SNDRV_PCM_TRIGGER_RESUME</constant> isn't needed
|
|
|
|
to be handled in the trigger callback when no
|
|
|
|
<constant>SNDRV_PCM_INFO_RESUME</constant> flag is set. But,
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
it's better to keep it for compatibility reasons.)

In the earlier version of ALSA drivers, a common
|
|
|
|
power-management layer was provided, but it has been removed.
|
|
|
|
The driver needs to define the suspend/resume hooks according to
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
the bus the device is connected to. In the case of PCI drivers, the
|
2005-11-18 00:26:09 +08:00
|
|
|
callbacks look like below:

As shown in the above, it's better to save registers after
|
|
|
|
suspending the PCM operations via
|
|
|
|
<function>snd_pcm_suspend_all()</function> or
|
|
|
|
<function>snd_pcm_suspend()</function>. It means that the PCM
|
|

|
streams are already stoppped when the register snapshot is
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|

taken. But, remember that you don't have to restart the PCM
|
2005-11-18 00:26:09 +08:00
|
|
|
stream in the resume callback. It'll be restarted via

when necessary.

OK, we have all callbacks now. Let's set them up. In the

|
|
|
initialization of the card, make sure that you can get the chip

data from the card instance, typically via
|
|
|
|
<structfield>private_data</structfield> field, in case you

There are standard module options for ALSA. At least, each

2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00

module should have the <parameter>index</parameter>,

2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00

So far, you've learned how to write the driver codes.
|
|
|
|
And you might have a question now: how to put my own
|
|
|
|
driver into the ALSA driver tree?
|
|
|
|
Here (finally :) the standard procedure is described briefly.

Suppose that you create a new PCI driver for the card
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
<quote>xyz</quote>. The card module name would be
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
snd-xyz. The new driver is usually put into the alsa-driver
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
tree, <filename>alsa-driver/pci</filename> directory in
|
|
|
|
the case of PCI cards.
|
|
|
|
Then the driver is evaluated, audited and tested
|
|
|
|
by developers and users. After a certain time, the driver
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
will go to the alsa-kernel tree (to the corresponding directory,
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
such as <filename>alsa-kernel/pci</filename>) and eventually
|
2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|
|
will be integrated into the Linux 2.6 tree (the directory would be
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
<filename>linux/sound/pci</filename>).

In the following sections, the driver code is supposed

2007-10-24 16:59:44 +08:00
|
|

to be put into alsa-driver tree. The two cases are covered:
|
2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
a driver consisting of a single source file and one consisting
|
|

of several source files.

ALSA provides a verbose version of the

2005-04-17 06:20:36 +08:00
|
|
|
<function>printk()</function> function. If a kernel config
|
|
|
|
<constant>CONFIG_SND_VERBOSE_PRINTK</constant> is set, this
|
|
|
|
function prints the given message together with the file name
|
|
|
|
and the line of the caller. The <constant>KERN_XXX</constant>
|
|

prefix is processed as

There are also <function>printk()</function>'s for
|
|
|
|
debugging. <function>snd_printd()</function> can be used for
|
|
|
|
general debugging purposes. If
|
|
|
|
<constant>CONFIG_SND_DEBUG</constant> is set, this function is
|
|
|
|
compiled, and works just like
|
|
|
|
<function>snd_printk()</function>. If the ALSA is compiled
|
|
|
|
without the debugging flag, it's ignored.

explicitly <option>--with-debug=detect</option> option instead.

The macro takes an conditional expression to evaluate.
|
|
|
|
When <constant>CONFIG_SND_DEBUG</constant>, is set, the
|
|
|
|
expression is actually evaluated. If it's non-zero, it shows
|
|
|
|
the warning message such as
|
|
|
|
<computeroutput>BUG? (xxx)</computeroutput>
|
|
|
|
normally followed by stack trace. It returns the evaluated
|
|
|
|
value.
|
|
|
|
When no <constant>CONFIG_SND_DEBUG</constant> is set, this
|
|
|
|
macro always returns zero.
