Added --with-configdir and --with-plugindir options to configure
which specify the directories for config files and plugin objects
respectively. The default paths when these options are not
specified are unchanged.
Instead of link_fd, more generic callback link_slaves is introduced.
This is called for linking the slave streams as the source to the
given master stream.
- add long card name to device description
- create empty PCM plugin to allow right hint description parsing
- reorder devices in alsa.conf
- make namehint more configurable (using default.namehint.showall switch)
- add two levels basic and exteded for hints to default configuration files
- do not show direct device aliases
- removed all known memory leaks
- add snd_device_name_hint() and snd_device_name_free_hint() functions
- add snd_ctl_iface_conf_name() functions
- do not accept parameters for the plugin definition without @args section
- add defaults.pcm.dmix.card/device and dsnoop.card/device definitions
- add hints for HDA-Intel.conf, pcm/dmix.conf, pcm/dsnoop.conf and alsa.conf
- add test/namehint test utility
- doxygen related cleanups
Fix the PCM auto-start conditions
- The capture stream should be started the PCM anyway before reads
- Fixed the endless poll() when the written size doesn't fit to the
buffer size due to lack of auto-start
Remove several memory leaks by not aborting prematurely from a
snd_xxx_close() function when some operation fails.
This can happen when a USB device was unplugged.
Add snd_pcm_hw_params_get/set_export_buffer() API functions.
They control to ensure the buffer export to other processes.
If this flag is set, the local buffer of a plugin is exported over IPC shm.
Otherwise the buffer can be handled only locally (no shm).
Also fixed Version file for 1.0.9.
- Fix CPU hang-up during snd_pcm_drain()
A new internal function snd_pcm_wait_nocheck() to force to call poll().
- Clean up, fix status() callback of dmix
- added link/unlink/link_fd fast_ops callbacks
- moved code from snd_pcm_link to pcm_hw.c
- moved "empty" routines pointing to slave to pcm_generic.c
- introduced snd_pcm_generic_t
The softvol PCM plugin is added. It applies the software volume attenuation,
which may be useful for codecs without volume controls.
Currently, the control is only mono. The attenuation is applied to all
channels equally. The control is probed and automatically created
when not exists yet.
Change the handling of non-fatal errors. Now the non-fatal error
messages are not shown in stderr and no assert() as default. The
behavior can be changed with LIBASOUND_DEBUG environment variable.
