From 3fbfd4881879adc47b07d0ef14beda2f1b6dc7d1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Takashi Iwai Date: Sat, 10 Aug 2024 10:48:32 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: timer: Relax start tick time check for slave timer elements commit ccbfcac05866ebe6eb3bc6d07b51d4ed4fcde436 upstream. The recent addition of a sanity check for a too low start tick time seems breaking some applications that uses aloop with a certain slave timer setup. They may have the initial resolution 0, hence it's treated as if it were a too low value. Relax and skip the check for the slave timer instance for addressing the regression.
