safe_strtoll() now accepts numbers in any base. It formerly assumed that
its input was a decimal number, which had the consequence that
hexadecimal or octal numbers would be parsed as strings when occurring
outside of parameter lists.
This obsoletes some workarounds in the file permission parsing code that
relied on this bug.
From: Pierre Ossman <drzeus-list@drzeus.cx>
Freeing the global config update structure when it had been created
without any configs present caused an assertion to trigger. Since this
is a valid scenario and the assertion didn't really protect against
anything, it should simply be removed. Attached patch does exactly that.
Fixed problem with EOF detection in freestring parser.
Fixed problem with run-time argument parsing (snd_config_load()->snd_config_load_override() replace).
Added more documentation for configuration run-time arguments and hooks.
Fixed the behaviour of snd_config_search_definition() - implicit and explicit base.
- changed snd_config_get_id function to follow semantic of other get functions
- added snd_config_test_id
- added runtime pointer type (not persistent)
- added snd_config_make_pointer, snd_config_set_pointer, snd_config_get_pointer
- added type/contents checking for callback functions
- changed 'void *private_data' to 'snd_config_t *private_data'
- renamed card_strtype functions to card_driver
Control:
- fixed passing parameters to snd_ctl_async
Async handlers:
- added public snd_async_handler_get_signo function
Documentation:
- moved all documentation to source files
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.
