GNU LIBRARY GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Version 2, June 1991
Copyright (C) 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
[This is the first released version of the library GPL. It is
numbered 2 because it goes with version 2 of the ordinary GPL.]
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change
free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.
This license, the Library General Public License, applies to some
specially designated Free Software Foundation software, and to any
other libraries whose authors decide to use it. You can use it for
your libraries, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if
you distribute copies of the library, or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis
or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave
you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source
code. If you link a program with the library, you must provide
complete object files to the recipients so that they can relink them
with the library, after making changes to the library and recompiling
it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
Our method of protecting your rights has two steps: (1) copyright
the library, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal
permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.
Also, for each distributor's protection, we want to make certain
that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
library. If the library is modified by someone else and passed on, we
want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original
version, so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on
the original authors' reputations.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
patents. We wish to avoid the danger that companies distributing free
software will individually obtain patent licenses, thus in effect
transforming the program into proprietary software. To prevent this,
we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone's
free use or not licensed at all.
Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the ordinary
GNU General Public License, which was designed for utility programs. This
license, the GNU Library General Public License, applies to certain
designated libraries. This license is quite different from the ordinary
one; be sure to read it in full, and don't assume that anything in it is
the same as in the ordinary license.
The reason we have a separate public license for some libraries is that
they blur the distinction we usually make between modifying or adding to a
program and simply using it. Linking a program with a library, without
changing the library, is in some sense simply using the library, and is
analogous to running a utility program or application program. However, in
a textual and legal sense, the linked executable is a combined work, a
derivative of the original library, and the ordinary General Public License
treats it as such.
Because of this blurred distinction, using the ordinary General
Public License for libraries did not effectively promote software
sharing, because most developers did not use the libraries. We
concluded that weaker conditions might promote sharing better.
However, unrestricted linking of non-free programs would deprive the
users of those programs of all benefit from the free status of the
libraries themselves. This Library General Public License is intended to
permit developers of non-free programs to use free libraries, while
preserving your freedom as a user of such programs to change the free
libraries that are incorporated in them. (We have not seen how to achieve
this as regards changes in header files, but we have achieved it as regards
changes in the actual functions of the Library.) The hope is that this
will lead to faster development of free libraries.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a
"work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The
former contains code derived from the library, while the latter only
works together with the library.
Note that it is possible for a library to be covered by the ordinary
General Public License rather than by this special one.
GNU LIBRARY GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
0. This License Agreement applies to any software library which
contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or other authorized
party saying it may be distributed under the terms of this Library
General Public License (also called "this License"). Each licensee is
addressed as "you".
A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data
prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs
(which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.
The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work
which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the
Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under
copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a
portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated
straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is
included without limitation in the term "modification".)
"Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for
making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means
all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated
interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation
and installation of the library.
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from
such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based
on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for
writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does
and what the program that uses the Library does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's
complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that
you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an
appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact
all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any
warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the
Library.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy,
and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a
fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion
of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
a) The modified work must itself be a software library.
b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices
stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no
charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a
table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses
the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility
is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that,
in the event an application does not supply such function or
table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of
its purpose remains meaningful.
(For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has
a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the
application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any
application-supplied function or table used by this function must
be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square
root function must still compute square roots.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library,
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote
it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
collective works based on the Library.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library
with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
the scope of this License.
3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public
License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do
this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so
that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2,
instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the
ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify
that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in
these notices.
Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for
that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all
subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy.
This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of
the Library into a program that is not a library.
4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or
derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form
under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany
it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which
must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a
medium customarily used for software interchange.
If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy
from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the
source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to
distribute the source code, even though third parties are not
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the
Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or
linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a
work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and
therefore falls outside the scope of this License.
However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library
creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it
contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the
library". The executable is therefore covered by this License.
Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.
When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file
that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a
derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not.
Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be
linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The
threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law.
If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data
structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline
functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object
file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative
work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the
Library will still fall under Section 6.)
Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may
distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6.
Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6,
whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.
6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also compile or
link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a
work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work
under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit
modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse
engineering for debugging such modifications.
You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the
Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by
this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work
during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the
copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference
directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one
of these things:
a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding
machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever
changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under
Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked
with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that
uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the
user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified
executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood
that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the
Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application
to use the modified definitions.)
b) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at
least three years, to give the same user the materials
specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more
than the cost of performing this distribution.
c) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy
from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above
specified materials from the same place.
d) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these
materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.
For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the
Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for
reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception,
the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally
distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major
components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on
which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies
the executable.
It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license
restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally
accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot
use both them and the Library together in an executable that you
distribute.
7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library
facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined
library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on
the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise
permitted, and provided that you do these two things:
a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work
based on the Library, uncombined with any other library
facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the
Sections above.
b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact
that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining
where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute
the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any
attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or
distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your
rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies,
or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses
terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the
Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
the Library or works based on it.
10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the
Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library
subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
this License.
11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
refrain entirely from distribution of the Library.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any
particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply,
and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
integrity of the free software distribution system which is
implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
be a consequence of the rest of this License.
12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add
an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries,
so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus
excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if
written in the body of this License.
13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new
versions of the Library General Public License from time to time.
Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version,
but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and
"any later version", you have the option of following the terms and
conditions either of that version or of any later version published by
the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a
license version number, you may choose any version ever published by
the Free Software Foundation.
14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free
programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these,
write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is
copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free
Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our
decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status
of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing
and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR
OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY
KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE
LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME
THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN
WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY
AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU
FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE
LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING
RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A
FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF
SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
DAMAGES.
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Appendix: How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries
If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest
possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that
everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting
redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the
ordinary General Public License).
To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is
safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the
"copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
<one line to give the library's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or
modify it under the terms of the GNU Library General Public
License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either
version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU
Library General Public License for more details.
You should have received a copy of the GNU Library General Public
License along with this library; if not, write to the Free
Software Foundation, Inc., 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA.
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the library, if
necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the
library `Frob' (a library for tweaking knobs) written by James Random Hacker.
<signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1990

That's all there is to it!

<H2><A NAME="s1">1. Introduction</A></H2>
<P>The Advanced Linux Sound Architecture comes with a kernel API & library API.
This document describes the library API and how it interfaces with the kernel
API. The kernal API will probably never be documented in standalone form.</P>
<P>Application programmers should use the library API rather than kernel API.
The Library offers 100% of the functionally of the kernel API, but add next
major improvements in usability, making the application code simpler and
better looking. In addition, some of the some fixes/compatibility code in,
may be placed in the library code instead of the kernel driver.</P>
<P>For a complete list of all variables and functions in the API you should look
at the following header files:
<OL>
<LI>/usr/include/sys/soundlib.h</LI>
<LI>/usr/include/linux/sound.h</LI>
<LI>/usr/include/linux/sounddetect.h</LI>
</OL>

<H2><A NAME="s5">5. Digital Audio (PCM) Interface</A></H2>
<P>Digital audio is the most commonly used method of representing sound inside
a computer. In this method sound is stored as a sequence of samples taken
from the audio signal using constant time intervals. A sample represents
volume of the signal at the moment when it was measured. In uncompressed
digital audio each sample require one or more bytes of storage. The number of
bytes required depends on number of channels (mono, stereo) and sample
format (8 or 16 bits, mu-Law, etc.). The length of this interval determines
the sampling rate. Commonly used sampling rates are between 8 kHz (telephone
quality) and 48 kHz (DAT tapes).</P>
<P>The physical devices used in digital audio are called the ADC (Analog to
Digital Converter) and DAC (Digital to Analog Converter). A device containing
both ADC and DAC is commonly known as a codec. The codec device used in
a Sound Blaster cards is called a DSP which is somewhat misleading since DSP
also stands for Digital Signal Processor (the SB DSP chip is very limited
when compared to "true" DSP chips). </P>
<P>Sampling parameters affect the quality of sound which can be reproduced from
the recorded signal. The most fundamental parameter is sampling rate which
limits the highest frequency than can be stored. It is well known (Nyquist's
Sampling Theorem) that the highest frequency that can be stored in a sampled
signal is at most 1/2 of the sampling frequency. For example, a 8 kHz sampling
rate permits the recording of a signal in which the highest frequency is less
than 4 kHz. Higher frequency signals must be filtered out before feeding them
to DAC. </P>
<P>Sample encoding limits the dynamic range of recorded signal (difference between
the faintest and the loudest signal that can be recorded). In theory the
maximum dynamic range of signal is number_of_bits * 6 dB . This means that
8 bits sampling resolution gives dynamic range of 48 dB and 16 bit resolution
gives 96 dB. </P>
<P>Quality has price. The number of bytes required to store an audio sequence
depends on sampling rate, number of channels and sampling resolution. For
example just 8000 bytes of memory is required to store one second of sound
using 8 kHz/8 bits/mono but 48 kHz/16bit/stereo takes 192 kilobytes. A 64 kbps
ISDN channel is required to transfer a 8kHz/8bit/mono audio stream in real
time, and about 1.5 Mbps is required for DAT quality (48kHz/16bit/stereo).
On the other hand it is possible to store just 5.46 seconds of sound in
a megabyte of memory when using 48kHz/16bit/stereo sampling. With
8kHz/8bits/mono it is possible to store 131 seconds of sound using the same
amount of memory. It is possible to reduce memory and communication costs by
compressing the recorded signal but this is out of the scope of this document. </P>
<H2><A NAME="ss5.1">5.1 Low-Level Layer</A></H2>
<P>Audio devices are opened exclusively for a selected direction. This doesn't
allow open from more than one processes for the same audio device in the
same direction, but does allow one open call to each playback direction and
second open call to record direction independently. Audio devices return
EBUSY error to applications when other applications have already opened the
requested direction.</P>

Constants with prefix <B>SND_PCM_FMT_</B> are used in info structures
and constants with prefix <B>SND_PCM_SFMT_</B> are used in format structures.</P>
<H3>int snd_pcm_open( void **handle, int card, int device, int mode ) </H3>
<P>Creates a new handle and opens a connection to kernel sound
audio interface for soundcard number <I>card</I> (0-N) and audio
device number <I>device</I>. Function also checks if protocol is
compatible to prevent use of old programs with a new kernel API. Function
returns zero if successful,ful otherwise it returns an error code.
Error code -EBUSY is returned when some process ownes the selected direction.</P>
<P>Default format after opening is mono <I>mu-Law</I> at 8000Hz. This device
can be used directly for playback of standard .au (Sparc) files.</P>
<P>The following modes should be used for the <I>mode</I> argument:

#define SND_PCM_OPEN_DUPLEX (O_RDWR)
</PRE>
<HR>
</P>
<H3>int snd_pcm_close( void *handle ) </H3>
<P>Frees all resources allocated with audio handle and
closes the connection to the kernel sound audio interface. Function
returns zero if successful, otherwise it returns an error code.</P>
<H3>int snd_pcm_file_descriptor( void *handle ) </H3>
<P>Returns the file descriptor of the connection to the kernel sound
audio interface. Function returns an error code if an
error was encountered. </P>
<P>The file descriptor should be used for the <I>select</I> synchronous
multiplexer function for setting the read direction. Application should
call <I>snd_pcm_read</I> or <I>snd_pcm_write</I> functions if some
data is waiting for reading or a write can be performed. Calling this
function is highly recomended, as it leaves a place for the API to things
like data conversions, if needed.</P>
<H3>int snd_pcm_block_mode( void *handle, int enable ) </H3>
<P>Sets up block (default) or nonblock mode for a handle. Block mode suspends
execution of a program when <I>snd_pcm_read</I> or <I>snd_pcm_write</I>
is called for the time which is needed for the actual playback or record
over of the entire buffer. In nonblock mode, programs aren't suspended and
the above functions returns immediately with the count of bytes which were
read or written by the driver. When used in this way, don't try to use the
entire buffer after the call, but instead process the number of bytes
returned, and call the function again.</P>
<H3>int snd_pcm_info( void *handle, snd_pcm_info_t *info ) </H3>
<P>Fills the *info structure with data about the PCM device selected by
*handle. Function returns zero if successful, otherwise it returns
an error code.

<title>Advanced Linux Sound Architecture - Library API
<author>Jaroslav Kysela <tt>&lt;perex@jcu.cz&gt;</tt> with assistance from Alan Robinson
<date>v0.0.3, 25 March 1998
<abstract>
This document describes, in full detail, the Advanced Linux Sound
Architecture library API.
</abstract>
<!-- Table of contents -->
<toc>
<!-- Begin the document -->
<sect>Introduction
<p>
The Advanced Linux Sound Architecture comes with a kernel API & library API.
This document describes the library API and how it interfaces with the kernel
API. The kernal API will probably never be documented in standalone form.
<P>
Application programmers should use the library API rather than kernel API.
The Library offers 100% of the functionally of the kernel API, but add next
major improvements in usability, making the application code simpler and
better looking. In addition, some of the some fixes/compatibility code in,
may be placed in the library code instead of the kernel driver.
<p>
For a complete list of all variables and functions in the API you should look
at the following header files:
<enum>
<item>/usr/include/sys/soundlib.h
<item>/usr/include/linux/sound.h
<item>/usr/include/linux/sounddetect.h
</enum>
<sect>Error Codes
<p>
All functions return int (or some sort of signed value). If this value
is negative it represents an error code. Codes up to SND_ERROR_BEGIN (500000)
represents standard system errors. Codes equal or greather than this value
represents sound library API errors. All error codes begin with the prefix
<it>SND_ERROR_</it>.
<sect1>Error Codes in Detail
<p>
<descrip>
<tag>SND_ERROR_UNCOMPATIBLE_VERSION (500000)</tag>
This error is caused if the driver uses an incompatible kernel API for this
interface and hence the library doesn't know how this API can be used.
</descrip>
<sect1>Functions
<p>
<sect2>const char *snd_strerror( int errnum )
<p>
This functions converts error code to a string. Its functionality is the same
as the <it>strerror</it> function from the standard C library, but this
function returns correct strings for sound error codes, too.
<sect>Control Interface
<p>
The control interfaces gives application various information about the
currently installed sound driver in the system. The interface should be used
to detect if another sound interface is present for selected soundcard or,
for example, to create a list of devices (MIXER, PCM etc) from which
the user can select.
<sect1>Low-Level Layer
<sect2>int snd_cards( void )
<p>
Returns the number of soundcards present in the system, if any. Otherwise
it returns a negative value, which maps to an error code. This function
will return 0 if no soundcards are detected.
<sect2>unsigned int snd_cards_mask( void )
<p>
Returns the bitmap of soundcards present in the system, if any. Otherwise
it returns a negative value, which maps to an error code. This function
will return 0 if no soundcards are detected. First soundcard is represented
with bit 0.
<sect2>int snd_ctl_open( void **handle, int card )
<p>
Creates a new handle and opens communication with the kernel sound
control interface for soundcard number <it>card</it> (0-N). The function
also checks if protocol is compatible, so as to prevent the use of old
programs with a new kernel API. Function returns zero if successful,
otherwise an error code is returned.
<sect2>int snd_ctl_close( void *handle )
<p>
Function frees all resources allocated with control handle and
closes the kernel sound control interface. Function returns zero if
successful, otherwise it returns an error code.
<sect2>int snd_ctl_file_descriptor( void *handle )
<p>
Function returns file descriptor for the kernel sound control interface.
This function should be used in very special cases. Function returns
a negative error code if some error was encountered.
<sect2>int snd_ctl_hw_info( void *handle, struct snd_ctl_hw_info *info )
<p>
Fills the info structure with data about the sound hardware referenced
by handle. Function returns zero if successful, otherwise it returns
an error code.

<sect>Mixer Interface
<p>
The Mixer Interface allows applications to change the volume level of
a soundcard's input/output channels in both the linear range (0-100)
and in decibels. It also supports features like hardware mute, input
sound source, etc.
<sect1>Low-Level Layer

Creates new handle and opens a connection to the kernel sound
mixer interface for soundcard number <it>card</it> (0-N) and mixer
device number <it>device</it>. Also checks if protocol is
compatible to prevent use of old programs with new kernel API. Function
returns zero if successful, otherwise it returns an error code.
<sect2>int snd_mixer_close( void *handle )

<sect>Digital Audio (PCM) Interface
<p>
Digital audio is the most commonly used method of representing sound inside
a computer. In this method sound is stored as a sequence of samples taken
from the audio signal using constant time intervals. A sample represents
volume of the signal at the moment when it was measured. In uncompressed
digital audio each sample require one or more bytes of storage. The number of
bytes required depends on number of channels (mono, stereo) and sample
format (8 or 16 bits, mu-Law, etc.). The length of this interval determines
the sampling rate. Commonly used sampling rates are between 8 kHz (telephone
quality) and 48 kHz (DAT tapes).
<p>
The physical devices used in digital audio are called the ADC (Analog to
Digital Converter) and DAC (Digital to Analog Converter). A device containing
both ADC and DAC is commonly known as a codec. The codec device used in
a Sound Blaster cards is called a DSP which is somewhat misleading since DSP
also stands for Digital Signal Processor (the SB DSP chip is very limited
when compared to "true" DSP chips).
<p>
Sampling parameters affect the quality of sound which can be reproduced from
the recorded signal. The most fundamental parameter is sampling rate which
limits the highest frequency than can be stored. It is well known (Nyquist's
Sampling Theorem) that the highest frequency that can be stored in a sampled
signal is at most 1/2 of the sampling frequency. For example, a 8 kHz sampling
rate permits the recording of a signal in which the highest frequency is less
than 4 kHz. Higher frequency signals must be filtered out before feeding them
to DAC.
<p>
Sample encoding limits the dynamic range of recorded signal (difference between
the faintest and the loudest signal that can be recorded). In theory the
maximum dynamic range of signal is number_of_bits * 6 dB . This means that
8 bits sampling resolution gives dynamic range of 48 dB and 16 bit resolution
gives 96 dB.
<p>
Quality has price. The number of bytes required to store an audio sequence
depends on sampling rate, number of channels and sampling resolution. For
example just 8000 bytes of memory is required to store one second of sound
using 8 kHz/8 bits/mono but 48 kHz/16bit/stereo takes 192 kilobytes. A 64 kbps
ISDN channel is required to transfer a 8kHz/8bit/mono audio stream in real
time, and about 1.5 Mbps is required for DAT quality (48kHz/16bit/stereo).
On the other hand it is possible to store just 5.46 seconds of sound in
a megabyte of memory when using 48kHz/16bit/stereo sampling. With
8kHz/8bits/mono it is possible to store 131 seconds of sound using the same
amount of memory. It is possible to reduce memory and communication costs by
compressing the recorded signal but this is out of the scope of this document.
<sect1>Low-Level Layer
<p>
Audio devices are opened exclusively for a selected direction. This doesn't
allow open from more than one processes for the same audio device in the
same direction, but does allow one open call to each playback direction and
second open call to record direction independently. Audio devices return
EBUSY error to applications when other applications have already opened the
requested direction.

Sets up format, rate (in Hz) and number of channels for used for recording
in the specified direction. Function returns zero if successful, otherwise
it returns an error code.
<code>
struct snd_pcm_format {
unsigned int format; /* SND_PCM_SFMT_XXXX */
unsigned int rate; /* rate in Hz */
unsigned int channels; /* channels (voices) */
unsigned char reserved[16];
};
</code>
<sect2>int snd_pcm_playback_params( void *handle, snd_pcm_playback_params_t *params )
<p>
Sets various parameters for playback direction. Function returns zero if
successful, otherwise it returns an error code.

int fragments_max;
int fragments_room;
unsigned char reserved[16]; /* must be filled with zero */
};
</code>
<descrip>
<tag>fragment_size</tag>
Requested size of fragment. This value should be aligned for current
format (for example to 4 if stereo 16-bit samples are used) or with the
<it>fragment_align</it> variable from <it>snd_pcm_playback_info_t</it>
structure. Its range can be from <it>min_fragment_size</it> to
<it>max_fragment_size</it>.
<tag>fragments_max</tag>
Maximum number of fragments in queue for wakeup. This number doesn't
counts partly used fragment. If current count of filled playback fragments
is greater than this value driver block application or return immediately
back if nonblock mode is active.
<tag>fragments_room</tag>
Minumum number of fragments writeable for wakeup. This value should be
in most cases 1 which means return back to application if at least
one fragment is free for playback. This value includes partly used fragments,
too.
</descrip>
<sect2>int snd_pcm_record_params( void *handle, snd_pcm_record_params_t *params )

};
</code>
<descrip>
<tag>fragment_size</tag>
Requested size of fragment. This value should be aligned for current
format (for example to 4 if stereo 16-bit samples are used) or set to the
<it>fragment_align</it> variable from <it>snd_pcm_playback_info_t</it>
structure. Its range can be from <it>min_fragment_size</it> to
<it>max_fragment_size</it>.

<tag>fragments</tag>
Currently allocated fragments by the driver for playback direction.
<tag>fragment_size</tag>
Current fragment size used by driver for the playback direction.
<tag>count</tag>
Count of bytes writeable without blocking.
<tag>queue</tag>
Count of bytes in queue. Note: <it>(fragments * fragment_size) - queue</it>
should not be equal to <it>count</it>.
<tag>underrun</tag>
This value tells the application the number of underruns since the ast call
of <it>snd_pcm_playback_status</it>.
<tag>time</tag>
Delay till played of the first sample from next write. This value should
be used for time synchronization. Returned value is in the same format as
returned from the standard C function <it>gettimeofday( &ero;time, NULL )</it>.
This variable contains right value only if playback time mode is enabled
(look to <it>snd_pcm_playback_time</it> function).
<tag>stime</tag>
Time when playback was started.
This variable contains right value only if playback time mode is enabled
(look to <it>snd_pcm_playback_time</it> function).
</descrip>
<sect2>int snd_pcm_record_status( void *handle, snd_pcm_record_status_t *status )
<p>
Fills the *status structure. Function returns zero if successful, otherwise
it returns an error code.
<code>
struct snd_pcm_record_status {
unsigned int rate;

int count;
int free;
int overrun;
struct timeval time;
unsigned char reserved[16];
};
</code>
<descrip>
<tag>rate</tag>
Real record rate. This value reflects hardware limitations.
<tag>fragments</tag>
Currently allocated fragments by driver for the record direction.
<tag>fragment_size</tag>
Current fragment size used by driver for the record direction.
<tag>count</tag>
Count of bytes readable without blocking.

Count of bytes in buffer still free. Note: <it>(fragments * fragment_size) - free</it>
should not be equal to <it>count</it>.
<tag>overrun</tag>
This value tells application the count of overruns since the last call
to <it>snd_pcm_record_status</it>.
<tag>time</tag>
Lag since the next sample read was recorded. This value should be used for time
synchronization. Returned value is in the same format as returned by the
from standard C function <it>gettimeofday( &ero;time, NULL )</it>. This
variable contains right value only if record time mode is enabled (look to
<it>snd_pcm_record_time</it> function).
<tag>stime</tag>
Time when record was started. This variable contains right value only if
record time mode is enabled (look to <it>snd_pcm_record_time</it> function).
</descrip>
<sect2>int snd_pcm_drain_playback( void *handle )
<p>
This function drain playback buffers immediately. Function returns zero
if successful, otherwise it returns an error code.
<sect2>int snd_pcm_flush_playback( void *handle )

Writes samples to the device which must be in the proper format
specified by the <it>snd_pcm_playback_format</it> function. Function
returns zero or positive value if playback was successful (value represents
count of bytes which was successfuly written to device) or an
error value if error occured. Function should suspend process if
block mode is active.
<sect2>ssize_t snd_pcm_read( void *handle, void *buffer, size_t size )
<p>
Function reads samples from driver. Samples are in format specified
by <it>snd_pcm_record_format</it> function. Function returns zero
or positive value if record was success (value represents count of bytes
which was successfuly read from device) or negative error value if
error occured. Function should suspend process if block mode is active.
<sect1>Examples
<p>
The following example shows how to play the first 512kB from the
/tmp/test.au file with soundcard #0 and PCM device #0:
<tscreen><code>
int card = 0, device = 0, err, fd, count, size, idx;
void *handle;
snd_pcm_format_t format;
char *buffer;
buffer = (char *)malloc( 512 * 1024 );
if ( !buffer ) return;
if ( (err = snd_pcm_open( &ero;handle, card, device, SND_PCM_OPEN_PLAYBACK )) < 0 ) {
fprintf( stderr, "open failed: %s\n", snd_strerror( err ) );
return;
}
format.format = SND_PCM_SFMT_MU_LAW;
format.rate = 8000;
format.voices = 1;
if ( (err = snd_pcm_playback_format( handle, &ero;format )) < 0 ) {
fprintf( stderr, "format setup failed: %s\n", snd_strerror( err ) );
snd_pcm_close( handle );
return;
}
fd = open( "/tmp/test.au" );
if ( fd < 0 ) {
perror( "open file" );
snd_pcm_close( handle );
return;
}
idx = 0;
count = read( fd, buffer, 512 * 1024 );
if ( count <= 0 ) {
perror( "read from file" );
snd_pcm_close( handle );
return;
}
close( fd );
if ( !memcmp( buffer, ".snd", 4 ) ) {
idx = (buffer[4]<<24)|(buffer[5]<<16)|(buffer[6]<<8)|(buffer[7]);
if ( idx > 128 ) idx = 128;
if ( idx > count ) idx = count;
}
size = snd_pcm_write( handle, &ero;buffer[ idx ], count - idx );
printf( "Bytes written %i from %i...\n", size, count - idx );
snd_pcm_close( handle );
free( buffer );
