With the patch, dmix allows apps to use more flexible buffer sizes.
The max buffer size is unlimited, and the minimal buffer size is
(period size * 2). The buffer size is aligned to period size.
The period size is still bound to the period size of slave PCM.
To back to the old behavior (the fixed buffer size), you can set
defaults.pcm.dmix_variable_buffer false
in your configuration.
Fix the check of nonblock option for all hw layer.
Instead of passing in asound.conf, check the option in snd_pcm_hw_open()
so that the nonblock option is referred in the case of "type hw ..." style
definition, too.
- Support multi-card/device for dmix/dsnoop/dshare plugins
The unique ipc key is calculated based on card/device/sub index
- Clean up and share the code among all d* plugins
- Refer the defaults.pcm.* configuration
The base ipc_key number, ipc_gid and ipc_perm are referred.
Added a new "nonblock" option for hw layer. This controls the non-blocking
"open" mode as default.
This option is set to TRUE as the default configuration. If the old behavior
is preferred, set "defaults.pcm.nonblock" to 0 in /etc/asound.conf.
This defines two modem related pcm devices: "phoneline" is driver's pcm
reference, with "modem" the line will be "Hook-Off"ed automatically.

"default" PCM can be card-specific.
The definition is moved to pcm/default.conf, and read on-demmand via
aliases.conf. The card config can override the default config.
Changed snd_config_hook_load_for_all_cards (to load also aliases).
Changed snd_config_search_alias routines (to follow aliases also in the middle of path).
Added private_data parameter for snd_config_hooks function.
Fixed the return value mess in the config parser routines.
The include file could begin with 'confdir:' which is replaced with /usr/share/alsa.
The snd_config_search_definitions looks for raw name at first (without suggested root).
Added snd_func_private_card_strtype function.
All configuration files moved to the src/conf directory.
Configuration files modified to use load-on-demand feature using hooks.
