Takashi Sakamoto 73f5537fb2 ALSA: fireface: support tx MIDI functionality of Fireface UCX
Fireface UCX transfers asynchronous transactions for MIDI messages.
One transaction includes quadlet data therefore it can transfer 3
message bytes as maximum. Base address of the destination is
configured by two settings; a register for higher 8 byte of the
address, and a bitflag to option register indicates lower 8byte.

The register for higher address is 0x'ffff'0000'0034. Unfortunately,
firmware v24 includes a bug to ignore registered value for the
destination address and transfers to 0x0001xxxxxxxx always. This
driver doesn't work well if the bug exists, therefore users should
install the latest firmware (v27).

The bitflag is a part of value to be written to option register
(0x'ffff'0000'0014).

lower addr:  bitflag (little endian)
 '0000'0000: 0x00002000
 '0000'0080: 0x00004000
 '0000'0100: 0x00008000
 '0000'0180: 0x00010000

This register includes more options but they are not relevant to
packet streaming or MIDI functionality. This driver don't touch it.

Furthermore, the transaction is sent to address offset incremented
by 4 byte to the offset in previous time. When it reaches base address
plus 0x7c, next offset is the base address.

Content of the transaction includes a prefix byte. Upper 4 bits of
the byte indicates port number, and the rest 4 bits indicate the way
to decode rest of bytes for MIDI message.

Except for system exclusive messages, the rest bits are the same as
status bits of the message without channel bits. For system exclusive
messages, the rest bits are encoded according to included message bytes.
For example:

message: f0 7e 7f 09 01 f7
offset: content (little endian, port 0)
 '0000: 0x04f07e7f
 '0004: 0x070901f7

message: f0 00 00 66 14 20 00 00 00 f7
offset: content (little endian, port 1)
 '0014: 0x14f00000
 '0018: 0x14661420
 '001c: 0x14000000
 '0020: 0x15f70000

message: f0 00 00 66 14 20 00 00 f7
offset: content (little endian, port 0)
 '0078: 0x04f00000
 '007c: 0x04661420
 '0000: 0x070000f7

This commit supports decoding scheme for the above and allows
applications to receive MIDI messages via ALSA rawmidi interface.
The lower 8 bytes of destination address is fixed to 0x'0000'0000,
thus this driver expects userspace applications to configure option
register with bitflag 0x00002000 in advance.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
