This patch adds the support for the feature to automatically allocate and free PCM buffers, so called "managed buffer allocation" mode. It's set up via new PCM helpers, snd_pcm_set_managed_buffer() and snd_pcm_set_managed_buffer_all(), both of which correspond to the existing preallocator helpers, snd_pcm_lib_preallocate_pages() and snd_pcm_lib_preallocate_pages_for_all(). When the new helper is used, it not only performs the pre-allocation of buffers, but also it manages to call snd_pcm_lib_malloc_pages() before the PCM hw_params ops and snd_lib_pcm_free() after the PCM hw_free ops inside PCM core, respectively. This allows drivers to drop the explicit calls of the memory allocation / release functions, and it will be a good amount of code reduction in the end of this patch series. When the PCM substream is set to the managed buffer allocation mode, the managed_buffer_alloc flag is set in the substream object. Since some drivers want to know when a buffer is newly allocated or re-allocated at hw_params callback (e.g. want to set up the additional stuff for the given buffer only at allocation time), now PCM core turns on buffer_changed flag when the buffer has changed. The standard conversions to use the new API will be straightforward: - Replace snd_pcm_lib_preallocate*() calls with the corresponding snd_pcm_set_managed_buffer*(); the arguments should be unchanged - Drop superfluous snd_pcm_lib_malloc() and snd_pcm_lib_free() calls; the check of snd_pcm_lib_malloc() returns should be replaced with the check of runtime->buffer_changed flag. - If hw_params or hw_free becomes empty, drop them from PCM ops Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20191117085308.23915-2-tiwai@suse.de Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de> |

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.
