VIA82xx mixer
=============
On many VIA82xx boards, the 'Input Source Select' mixer control does not work.
Setting it to 'Input2' on such boards will cause recording to hang, or fail
with EIO (input/output error) via OSS emulation. This control should be left
at 'Input1' for such cards.

ALSA Kernel Parameters
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
See Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.rst for general information on
specifying module parameters.
This document may not be entirely up to date and comprehensive. The command
"modinfo -p ${modulename}" shows a current list of all parameters of a loadable
module. Loadable modules, after being loaded into the running kernel, also
reveal their parameters in /sys/module/${modulename}/parameters/. Some of these
parameters may be changed at runtime by the command
"echo -n ${value} > /sys/module/${modulename}/parameters/${parm}".

OSS Sequencer Emulation on ALSA</H1></CENTER>

<P>Copyright (c) 1998,1999 by Takashi Iwai
<TT><A HREF="mailto:iwai@ww.uni-erlangen.de">&lt;iwai@ww.uni-erlangen.de></A></TT>
<P>ver.0.1.8; Nov. 16, 1999

<HR WIDTH="100%"></H2>
<H2>
1. Description</H2>
This directory contains the OSS sequencer emulation driver on ALSA. Note
that this program is still in the development state.
<P>What this does - it provides the emulation of the OSS sequencer, access
via
<TT>/dev/sequencer</TT> and <TT>/dev/music</TT> devices.
The most of applications using OSS can run if the appropriate ALSA
sequencer is prepared.
<P>The following features are emulated by this driver:
<UL>
<LI>
Normal sequencer and MIDI events:</LI>
<BR>They are converted to the ALSA sequencer events, and sent to the corresponding
port.
<LI>
Timer events:</LI>
<BR>The timer is not selectable by ioctl. The control rate is fixed to
100 regardless of HZ. That is, even on Alpha system, a tick is always
1/100 second. The base rate and tempo can be changed in <TT>/dev/music</TT>.
<LI>
Patch loading:</LI>
<BR>It purely depends on the synth drivers whether it's supported since
the patch loading is realized by callback to the synth driver.
<LI>
I/O controls:</LI>
<BR>Most of controls are accepted. Some controls
are dependent on the synth driver, as well as even on original OSS.</UL>
Furthermore, you can find the following advanced features:
<UL>
<LI>
Better queue mechanism:</LI>
<BR>The events are queued before processing them.
<LI>
Multiple applications:</LI>
<BR>You can run two or more applications simultaneously (even for OSS sequencer)!
However, each MIDI device is exclusive - that is, if a MIDI device is opened
once by some application, other applications can't use it. No such a restriction
in synth devices.
<LI>
Real-time event processing:</LI>
<BR>The events can be processed in real time without using out of bound
ioctl. To switch to real-time mode, send ABSTIME 0 event. The followed
events will be processed in real-time without queued. To switch off the
real-time mode, send RELTIME 0 event.
<LI>
<TT>/proc</TT> interface:</LI>
<BR>The status of applications and devices can be shown via <TT>/proc/asound/seq/oss</TT>
at any time. In the later version, configuration will be changed via <TT>/proc</TT>
interface, too.</UL>
<H2>
2. Installation</H2>
Run configure script with both sequencer support (<TT>--with-sequencer=yes</TT>)
and OSS emulation (<TT>--with-oss=yes</TT>) options. A module <TT>snd-seq-oss.o</TT>
will be created. If the synth module of your sound card supports for OSS
emulation (so far, only Emu8000 driver), this module will be loaded automatically.
Otherwise, you need to load this module manually.
<P>At beginning, this module probes all the MIDI ports which have been
already connected to the sequencer. Once after that, the creation and deletion
of ports are watched by announcement mechanism of ALSA sequencer.
<P>The available synth and MIDI devices can be found in proc interface.
Run "<TT>cat /proc/asound/seq/oss</TT>", and check the devices. For example,
if you use an AWE64 card, you'll see like the following:
<PRE>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; OSS sequencer emulation version 0.1.8
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ALSA client number 63
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ALSA receiver port 0
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Number of applications: 0
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Number of synth devices: 1
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; synth 0: [EMU8000]
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; type 0x1 : subtype 0x20 : voices 32
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; capabilties : ioctl enabled / load_patch enabled
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Number of MIDI devices: 3
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; midi 0: [Emu8000 Port-0] ALSA port 65:0
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; capability write / opened none
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; midi 1: [Emu8000 Port-1] ALSA port 65:1
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; capability write / opened none
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; midi 2: [0: MPU-401 (UART)] ALSA port 64:0
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; capability read/write / opened none</PRE>
Note that the device number may be different from the information of
<TT>/proc/asound/oss-devices</TT>
or ones of the original OSS driver. Use the device number listed in <TT>/proc/asound/seq/oss</TT>
to play via OSS sequencer emulation.
<H2>
3. Using Synthesizer Devices</H2>
Run your favorite program. I've tested playmidi-2.4, awemidi-0.4.3, gmod-3.1
and xmp-1.1.5. You can load samples via <TT>/dev/sequencer</TT> like sfxload,
too.
<P>If the lowlevel driver supports multiple access to synth devices (like
Emu8000 driver), two or more applications are allowed to run at the same
time.
<H2>
4. Using MIDI Devices</H2>
So far, only MIDI output was tested. MIDI input was not checked at all,
but hopefully it will work. Use the device number listed in <TT>/proc/asound/seq/oss</TT>.
Be aware that these numbers are mostly different from the list in
<TT>/proc/asound/oss-devices</TT>.
<H2>
5. Module Options</H2>
The following module options are available:
<UL>
<LI>
<TT>maxqlen</TT></LI>
<BR>specifies the maximum read/write queue length. This queue is private
for OSS sequencer, so that it is independent from the queue length of ALSA
sequencer. Default value is 1024.
<LI>
<TT>seq_oss_debug</TT></LI>
<BR>specifies the debug level and accepts zero (= no debug message) or
positive integer. Default value is 0.</UL>
<H2>
6. Queue Mechanism</H2>
OSS sequencer emulation uses an ALSA priority queue. The
events from <TT>/dev/sequencer</TT> are processed and put onto the queue
specified by module option.
<P>All the events from <TT>/dev/sequencer</TT> are parsed at beginning.
The timing events are also parsed at this moment, so that the events may
be processed in real-time. Sending an event ABSTIME 0 switches the operation
mode to real-time mode, and sending an event RELTIME 0 switches it off.
In the real-time mode, all events are dispatched immediately.
<P>The queued events are dispatched to the corresponding ALSA sequencer
ports after scheduled time by ALSA sequencer dispatcher.
<P>If the write-queue is full, the application sleeps until a certain amount
(as default one half) becomes empty in blocking mode. The synchronization
to write timing was implemented, too.
<P>The input from MIDI devices or echo-back events are stored on read FIFO
queue. If application reads <TT>/dev/sequencer</TT> in blocking mode, the
process will be awaked.
<H2>
7. Interface to Synthesizer Device</H2>
<H3>
7.1. Registration</H3>
To register an OSS synthesizer device, use <TT>snd_seq_oss_synth_register</TT>
function.
<PRE>int snd_seq_oss_synth_register(char *name, int type, int subtype, int nvoices,
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; snd_seq_oss_callback_t *oper, void *private_data)</PRE>
The arguments <TT>name</TT>, <TT>type</TT>, <TT>subtype</TT> and
<TT>nvoices</TT>
are used for making the appropriate synth_info structure for ioctl. The
return value is an index number of this device. This index must be remembered
for unregister. If registration is failed, -errno will be returned.
<P>To release this device, call <TT>snd_seq_oss_synth_unregister function</TT>:
<PRE>int snd_seq_oss_synth_unregister(int index),</PRE>
where the <TT>index</TT> is the index number returned by register function.
<H3>
7.2. Callbacks</H3>
OSS synthesizer devices have capability for sample downloading and ioctls
like sample reset. In OSS emulation, these special features are realized
by using callbacks. The registration argument oper is used to specify these
callbacks. The following callback functions must be defined:
<PRE>snd_seq_oss_callback_t:
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; int (*open)(snd_seq_oss_arg_t *p, void *closure);
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; int (*close)(snd_seq_oss_arg_t *p);
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; int (*ioctl)(snd_seq_oss_arg_t *p, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg);
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; int (*load_patch)(snd_seq_oss_arg_t *p, int format, const char *buf, int offs, int count);
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; int (*reset)(snd_seq_oss_arg_t *p);
Except for <TT>open</TT> and <TT>close</TT> callbacks, they are allowed
to be NULL.
<P>Each callback function takes the argument type snd_seq_oss_arg_t as the
first argument.
<PRE>struct snd_seq_oss_arg_t {
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; int app_index;
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; int file_mode;
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; int seq_mode;
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; snd_seq_addr_t addr;
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; void *private_data;
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; int event_passing;
};</PRE>
The first three fields, <TT>app_index</TT>, <TT>file_mode</TT> and
<TT>seq_mode</TT>
are initialized by OSS sequencer. The <TT>app_index</TT> is the application
index which is unique to each application opening OSS sequencer. The
<TT>file_mode</TT>
is bit-flags indicating the file operation mode. See
<TT>seq_oss.h</TT>
for its meaning. The <TT>seq_mode</TT> is sequencer operation mode. In
the current version, only <TT>SND_OSSSEQ_MODE_SYNTH</TT> is used.
<P>The next two fields, <TT>addr</TT> and <TT>private_data</TT>, must be
filled by the synth driver at open callback. The <TT>addr</TT> contains
the address of ALSA sequencer port which is assigned to this device. If
the driver allocates memory for <TT>private_data</TT>, it must be released
in close callback by itself.
<P>The last field, <TT>event_passing</TT>, indicates how to translate note-on
/ off events. In <TT>PROCESS_EVENTS</TT> mode, the note 255 is regarded
as velocity change, and key pressure event is passed to the port. In <TT>PASS_EVENTS</TT>
mode, all note on/off events are passed to the port without modified. <TT>PROCESS_KEYPRESS</TT>
mode checks the note above 128 and regards it as key pressure event (mainly
for Emu8000 driver).
<H4>
7.2.1. Open Callback</H4>
The <TT>open</TT> is called at each time this device is opened by an application
using OSS sequencer. This must not be NULL. Typically, the open callback
does the following procedure:
<OL>
<LI>
Allocate private data record.</LI>
<LI>
Create an ALSA sequencer port.</LI>
<LI>
Set the new port address on arg->addr.</LI>
<LI>
Set the private data record pointer on arg->private_data.</LI>
</OL>
Note that the type bit-flags in port_info of this synth port must NOT contain
<TT>TYPE_MIDI_GENERIC</TT>
bit. Instead, <TT>TYPE_SPECIFIC</TT> should be used. Also, <TT>CAP_SUBSCRIPTION</TT>
bit should NOT be included, too. This is necessary to tell it from other
normal MIDI devices. If the open procedure succeeded, return zero. Otherwise,
return -errno.
<H4>
7.2.2 Ioctl Callback</H4>
The <TT>ioctl</TT> callback is called when the sequencer receives device-specific
ioctls. The following two ioctls should be processed by this callback:
<UL>
<LI>
<TT>IOCTL_SEQ_RESET_SAMPLES</TT></LI>
<BR>reset all samples on memory -- return 0
<LI>
<TT>IOCTL_SYNTH_MEMAVL</TT></LI>
<BR>return the available memory size
<LI>
<TT>FM_4OP_ENABLE</TT></LI>
<BR>can be ignored usually</UL>
The other ioctls are processed inside the sequencer without passing to
the lowlevel driver.
<H4>
7.2.3 Load_Patch Callback</H4>
The <TT>load_patch</TT> callback is used for sample-downloading. This callback
must read the data on user-space and transfer to each device. Return 0
if succeeded, and -errno if failed. The format argument is the patch key
in patch_info record. The buf is user-space pointer where patch_info record
is stored. The offs can be ignored. The count is total data size of this
sample data.
<H4>
7.2.4 Close Callback</H4>
The <TT>close</TT> callback is called when this device is closed by the
application. If any private data was allocated in open callback, it must
be released in the close callback. The deletion of ALSA port should be
done here, too. This callback must not be NULL.
<H4>
7.2.5 Reset Callback</H4>
The <TT>reset</TT> callback is called when sequencer device is reset or
closed by applications. The callback should turn off the sounds on the
relevant port immediately, and initialize the status of the port. If this
callback is undefined, OSS seq sends a <TT>HEARTBEAT</TT> event to the
port.
<H3>
7.3 Events</H3>
Most of the events are processed by sequencer and translated to the adequate
ALSA sequencer events, so that each synth device can receive by input_event
callback of ALSA sequencer port. The following ALSA events should be implemented
by the driver:
<BR>&nbsp;

<TD>SEQ_CONTROLLER(CTRL_PITCH_BENDER_RANGE)</TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD>SYSEX</TD>
<TD>SEQ_SYSEX</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
<P>The most of these behavior can be realized by MIDI emulation driver
included in the Emu8000 lowlevel driver. In the future release, this module
will be independent.
<P>Some OSS events (<TT>SEQ_PRIVATE</TT> and <TT>SEQ_VOLUME</TT> events) are passed as event
type SND_SEQ_OSS_PRIVATE. The OSS sequencer passes these event 8 byte
packets without any modification. The lowlevel driver should process these
events appropriately.
<H2>
8. Interface to MIDI Device</H2>
Since the OSS emulation probes the creation and deletion of ALSA MIDI sequencer
ports automatically by receiving announcement from ALSA sequencer, the
MIDI devices don't need to be registered explicitly like synth devices.
However, the MIDI port_info registered to ALSA sequencer must include a group
name <TT>SND_SEQ_GROUP_DEVICE</TT> and a capability-bit <TT>CAP_READ</TT> or
<TT>CAP_WRITE</TT>. Also, subscription capabilities, <TT>CAP_SUBS_READ</TT> or <TT>CAP_SUBS_WRITE</TT>,
must be defined, too. If these conditions are not satisfied, the port is not
registered as OSS sequencer MIDI device.
<P>The events via MIDI devices are parsed in OSS sequencer and converted
to the corresponding ALSA sequencer events. The input from MIDI sequencer
is also converted to MIDI byte events by OSS sequencer. This works just
a reverse way of seq_midi module.
<H2>

- get_codec_caps For each codec, this routine returns a list of

correspond to valid settings, and to minimize the risks of

the capabilities were exposed with a single descriptor, it may happen
that a specific combination of profiles/channels/formats may not be
supported. Likewise, embedded DSPs have limited memory and cpu cycles,
it is likely that some implementations make the list of capabilities
dynamic and dependent on existing workloads. In addition to codec
settings, this routine returns the minimum buffer size handled by the

sizes, the number of bytes required to synchronize, etc, and can be
used by userspace to define how much needs to be written in the ring
buffer before playback can start.

Unlike the real OSS, ALSA cannot use the device files more than the
assigned ones. For example, the first card cannot use /dev/dsp1 or
/dev/dsp2, but only /dev/dsp0 and /dev/adsp0.
As seen above, PCM and MIDI may have two devices. Usually, the first
PCM device (hw:0,0 in ALSA) is mapped to /dev/dsp and the secondary
device (hw:0,1) to /dev/adsp (if available). For MIDI, /dev/midi and

device (``hw:0,1``) to /dev/adsp (if available). For MIDI, /dev/midi and

You can change this device mapping via the module options of
snd-pcm-oss and snd-rawmidi. In the case of PCM, the following
options are available for snd-pcm-oss:

OSS Sequencer Emulation on ALSA
===============================
Copyright (c) 1998,1999 by Takashi Iwai
ver.0.1.8; Nov. 16, 1999
Description
===========
This directory contains the OSS sequencer emulation driver on ALSA. Note
that this program is still in the development state.
What this does - it provides the emulation of the OSS sequencer, access
via ``/dev/sequencer`` and ``/dev/music`` devices.
The most of applications using OSS can run if the appropriate ALSA
sequencer is prepared.
The following features are emulated by this driver:
* Normal sequencer and MIDI events:
They are converted to the ALSA sequencer events, and sent to the
corresponding port.
* Timer events:
The timer is not selectable by ioctl. The control rate is fixed to
100 regardless of HZ. That is, even on Alpha system, a tick is always
1/100 second. The base rate and tempo can be changed in ``/dev/music``.
* Patch loading:
It purely depends on the synth drivers whether it's supported since
the patch loading is realized by callback to the synth driver.
* I/O controls:
Most of controls are accepted. Some controls
are dependent on the synth driver, as well as even on original OSS.
Furthermore, you can find the following advanced features:
* Better queue mechanism:
The events are queued before processing them.
* Multiple applications:
You can run two or more applications simultaneously (even for OSS
sequencer)!
However, each MIDI device is exclusive - that is, if a MIDI device
is opened once by some application, other applications can't use
it. No such a restriction in synth devices.
* Real-time event processing:
The events can be processed in real time without using out of bound
ioctl. To switch to real-time mode, send ABSTIME 0 event. The followed
events will be processed in real-time without queued. To switch off the
real-time mode, send RELTIME 0 event.
* ``/proc`` interface:
The status of applications and devices can be shown via
``/proc/asound/seq/oss`` at any time. In the later version,
configuration will be changed via ``/proc`` interface, too.
Installation
============
Run configure script with both sequencer support (``--with-sequencer=yes``)
and OSS emulation (``--with-oss=yes``) options. A module ``snd-seq-oss.o``
will be created. If the synth module of your sound card supports for OSS
emulation (so far, only Emu8000 driver), this module will be loaded
automatically.
Otherwise, you need to load this module manually.
At beginning, this module probes all the MIDI ports which have been
already connected to the sequencer. Once after that, the creation and deletion
of ports are watched by announcement mechanism of ALSA sequencer.
The available synth and MIDI devices can be found in proc interface.
Run ``cat /proc/asound/seq/oss``, and check the devices. For example,
if you use an AWE64 card, you'll see like the following:
::
OSS sequencer emulation version 0.1.8
ALSA client number 63
ALSA receiver port 0
Number of applications: 0
Number of synth devices: 1
synth 0: [EMU8000]
type 0x1 : subtype 0x20 : voices 32
capabilties : ioctl enabled / load_patch enabled
Number of MIDI devices: 3
midi 0: [Emu8000 Port-0] ALSA port 65:0
capability write / opened none
midi 1: [Emu8000 Port-1] ALSA port 65:1
capability write / opened none
midi 2: [0: MPU-401 (UART)] ALSA port 64:0
capability read/write / opened none
Note that the device number may be different from the information of
``/proc/asound/oss-devices`` or ones of the original OSS driver.
Use the device number listed in ``/proc/asound/seq/oss``
to play via OSS sequencer emulation.
Using Synthesizer Devices
=========================
Run your favorite program. I've tested playmidi-2.4, awemidi-0.4.3, gmod-3.1
and xmp-1.1.5. You can load samples via ``/dev/sequencer`` like sfxload,
too.
If the lowlevel driver supports multiple access to synth devices (like
Emu8000 driver), two or more applications are allowed to run at the same
time.
Using MIDI Devices
==================
So far, only MIDI output was tested. MIDI input was not checked at all,
but hopefully it will work. Use the device number listed in
``/proc/asound/seq/oss``.
Be aware that these numbers are mostly different from the list in
``/proc/asound/oss-devices``.
Module Options
==============
The following module options are available:
maxqlen
specifies the maximum read/write queue length. This queue is private
for OSS sequencer, so that it is independent from the queue length of ALSA
sequencer. Default value is 1024.
seq_oss_debug
specifies the debug level and accepts zero (= no debug message) or
positive integer. Default value is 0.
Queue Mechanism
===============
OSS sequencer emulation uses an ALSA priority queue. The
events from ``/dev/sequencer`` are processed and put onto the queue
specified by module option.
All the events from ``/dev/sequencer`` are parsed at beginning.
The timing events are also parsed at this moment, so that the events may
be processed in real-time. Sending an event ABSTIME 0 switches the operation
mode to real-time mode, and sending an event RELTIME 0 switches it off.
In the real-time mode, all events are dispatched immediately.
The queued events are dispatched to the corresponding ALSA sequencer
ports after scheduled time by ALSA sequencer dispatcher.
If the write-queue is full, the application sleeps until a certain amount
(as default one half) becomes empty in blocking mode. The synchronization
to write timing was implemented, too.
The input from MIDI devices or echo-back events are stored on read FIFO
queue. If application reads ``/dev/sequencer`` in blocking mode, the
process will be awaked.
Interface to Synthesizer Device
===============================
Registration
------------
To register an OSS synthesizer device, use snd_seq_oss_synth_register()
function:
::
int snd_seq_oss_synth_register(char *name, int type, int subtype, int nvoices,
snd_seq_oss_callback_t *oper, void *private_data)
The arguments ``name``, ``type``, ``subtype`` and ``nvoices``
are used for making the appropriate synth_info structure for ioctl. The
return value is an index number of this device. This index must be remembered
for unregister. If registration is failed, -errno will be returned.
To release this device, call snd_seq_oss_synth_unregister() function:
::
int snd_seq_oss_synth_unregister(int index)
where the ``index`` is the index number returned by register function.
Callbacks
---------
OSS synthesizer devices have capability for sample downloading and ioctls
like sample reset. In OSS emulation, these special features are realized
by using callbacks. The registration argument oper is used to specify these
callbacks. The following callback functions must be defined:
::
snd_seq_oss_callback_t:
int (*open)(snd_seq_oss_arg_t *p, void *closure);
int (*close)(snd_seq_oss_arg_t *p);
int (*ioctl)(snd_seq_oss_arg_t *p, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg);
int (*load_patch)(snd_seq_oss_arg_t *p, int format, const char *buf, int offs, int count);
int (*reset)(snd_seq_oss_arg_t *p);
Except for ``open`` and ``close`` callbacks, they are allowed to be NULL.
Each callback function takes the argument type ``snd_seq_oss_arg_t`` as the
first argument.
::
struct snd_seq_oss_arg_t {
int app_index;
int file_mode;
int seq_mode;
snd_seq_addr_t addr;
void *private_data;
int event_passing;
};
The first three fields, ``app_index``, ``file_mode`` and ``seq_mode``
are initialized by OSS sequencer. The ``app_index`` is the application
index which is unique to each application opening OSS sequencer. The
``file_mode`` is bit-flags indicating the file operation mode. See
``seq_oss.h`` for its meaning. The ``seq_mode`` is sequencer operation
mode. In the current version, only ``SND_OSSSEQ_MODE_SYNTH`` is used.
The next two fields, ``addr`` and ``private_data``, must be
filled by the synth driver at open callback. The ``addr`` contains
the address of ALSA sequencer port which is assigned to this device. If
the driver allocates memory for ``private_data``, it must be released
in close callback by itself.
The last field, ``event_passing``, indicates how to translate note-on
/ off events. In ``PROCESS_EVENTS`` mode, the note 255 is regarded
as velocity change, and key pressure event is passed to the port. In
``PASS_EVENTS`` mode, all note on/off events are passed to the port
without modified. ``PROCESS_KEYPRESS`` mode checks the note above 128
and regards it as key pressure event (mainly for Emu8000 driver).
Open Callback
-------------
The ``open`` is called at each time this device is opened by an application
using OSS sequencer. This must not be NULL. Typically, the open callback
does the following procedure:
#. Allocate private data record.
#. Create an ALSA sequencer port.
#. Set the new port address on ``arg->addr``.
#. Set the private data record pointer on ``arg->private_data``.
Note that the type bit-flags in port_info of this synth port must NOT contain
``TYPE_MIDI_GENERIC``
bit. Instead, ``TYPE_SPECIFIC`` should be used. Also, ``CAP_SUBSCRIPTION``
bit should NOT be included, too. This is necessary to tell it from other
normal MIDI devices. If the open procedure succeeded, return zero. Otherwise,
return -errno.
Ioctl Callback
--------------
The ``ioctl`` callback is called when the sequencer receives device-specific
ioctls. The following two ioctls should be processed by this callback:
IOCTL_SEQ_RESET_SAMPLES
reset all samples on memory -- return 0
IOCTL_SYNTH_MEMAVL
return the available memory size
FM_4OP_ENABLE
can be ignored usually
The other ioctls are processed inside the sequencer without passing to
the lowlevel driver.
Load_Patch Callback
-------------------
The ``load_patch`` callback is used for sample-downloading. This callback
must read the data on user-space and transfer to each device. Return 0
if succeeded, and -errno if failed. The format argument is the patch key
in patch_info record. The buf is user-space pointer where patch_info record
is stored. The offs can be ignored. The count is total data size of this
sample data.
Close Callback
--------------
The ``close`` callback is called when this device is closed by the
application. If any private data was allocated in open callback, it must
be released in the close callback. The deletion of ALSA port should be
done here, too. This callback must not be NULL.
Reset Callback
--------------
The ``reset`` callback is called when sequencer device is reset or
closed by applications. The callback should turn off the sounds on the
relevant port immediately, and initialize the status of the port. If this
callback is undefined, OSS seq sends a ``HEARTBEAT`` event to the
port.
Events
======
Most of the events are processed by sequencer and translated to the adequate
ALSA sequencer events, so that each synth device can receive by input_event
callback of ALSA sequencer port. The following ALSA events should be
implemented by the driver:
============= ===================
ALSA event Original OSS events
============= ===================
NOTEON SEQ_NOTEON, MIDI_NOTEON
NOTE SEQ_NOTEOFF, MIDI_NOTEOFF
KEYPRESS MIDI_KEY_PRESSURE
CHANPRESS SEQ_AFTERTOUCH, MIDI_CHN_PRESSURE
PGMCHANGE SEQ_PGMCHANGE, MIDI_PGM_CHANGE
PITCHBEND SEQ_CONTROLLER(CTRL_PITCH_BENDER),
MIDI_PITCH_BEND
CONTROLLER MIDI_CTL_CHANGE,
SEQ_BALANCE (with CTL_PAN)
CONTROL14 SEQ_CONTROLLER
REGPARAM SEQ_CONTROLLER(CTRL_PITCH_BENDER_RANGE)
SYSEX SEQ_SYSEX
============= ===================
The most of these behavior can be realized by MIDI emulation driver
included in the Emu8000 lowlevel driver. In the future release, this module
will be independent.
Some OSS events (``SEQ_PRIVATE`` and ``SEQ_VOLUME`` events) are passed as event
type SND_SEQ_OSS_PRIVATE. The OSS sequencer passes these event 8 byte
packets without any modification. The lowlevel driver should process these
events appropriately.
Interface to MIDI Device
========================
Since the OSS emulation probes the creation and deletion of ALSA MIDI
sequencer ports automatically by receiving announcement from ALSA
sequencer, the MIDI devices don't need to be registered explicitly
like synth devices.
However, the MIDI port_info registered to ALSA sequencer must include
a group name ``SND_SEQ_GROUP_DEVICE`` and a capability-bit
``CAP_READ`` or ``CAP_WRITE``. Also, subscription capabilities,
``CAP_SUBS_READ`` or ``CAP_SUBS_WRITE``, must be defined, too. If
these conditions are not satisfied, the port is not registered as OSS
sequencer MIDI device.
The events via MIDI devices are parsed in OSS sequencer and converted
to the corresponding ALSA sequencer events. The input from MIDI sequencer
is also converted to MIDI byte events by OSS sequencer. This works just
a reverse way of seq_midi module.
Known Problems / TODO's
=======================
* Patch loading via ALSA instrument layer is not implemented yet.

ALSA PCM Timestamping

The ALSA API can provide two different system timestamps:
- Trigger_tstamp is the system time snapshot taken when the .trigger
callback is invoked. This snapshot is taken by the ALSA core in the
general case, but specific hardware may have synchronization
capabilities or conversely may only be able to provide a correct
estimate with a delay. In the latter two cases, the low-level driver
is responsible for updating the trigger_tstamp at the most appropriate
and precise moment. Applications should not rely solely on the first
trigger_tstamp but update their internal calculations if the driver

Creating codec to codec dai link for ALSA dapm
==============================================
Mostly the flow of audio is always from CPU to codec so your system
will look as below:
::
--------- ---------
| | dai | |
CPU -------> codec
| | | |
--------- ---------
In case your system looks as below:
::
---------
| |
codec-2
| |
---------
|
dai-2
|
---------- ---------
| | dai-1 | |
CPU -------> codec-1
| | | |
---------- ---------
|
dai-3
|
---------
| |
codec-3
| |
---------
Suppose codec-2 is a bluetooth chip and codec-3 is connected to
a speaker and you have a below scenario:
codec-2 will receive the audio data and the user wants to play that
audio through codec-3 without involving the CPU.This
aforementioned case is the ideal case when codec to codec
connection should be used.
Your dai_link should appear as below in your machine
file:
::
/*
* this pcm stream only supports 24 bit, 2 channel and
* 48k sampling rate.
*/
static const struct snd_soc_pcm_stream dsp_codec_params = {
.formats = SNDRV_PCM_FMTBIT_S24_LE,
.rate_min = 48000,
.rate_max = 48000,
.channels_min = 2,
.channels_max = 2,
};
{
.name = "CPU-DSP",
.stream_name = "CPU-DSP",
.cpu_dai_name = "samsung-i2s.0",
.codec_name = "codec-2,
.codec_dai_name = "codec-2-dai_name",
.platform_name = "samsung-i2s.0",
.dai_fmt = SND_SOC_DAIFMT_I2S | SND_SOC_DAIFMT_NB_NF
| SND_SOC_DAIFMT_CBM_CFM,
.ignore_suspend = 1,
.params = &dsp_codec_params,
},
{
.name = "DSP-CODEC",
.stream_name = "DSP-CODEC",
.cpu_dai_name = "wm0010-sdi2",
.codec_name = "codec-3,
.codec_dai_name = "codec-3-dai_name",
.dai_fmt = SND_SOC_DAIFMT_I2S | SND_SOC_DAIFMT_NB_NF
| SND_SOC_DAIFMT_CBM_CFM,
.ignore_suspend = 1,
.params = &dsp_codec_params,
},
Above code snippet is motivated from sound/soc/samsung/speyside.c.
Note the "params" callback which lets the dapm know that this
dai_link is a codec to codec connection.
In dapm core a route is created between cpu_dai playback widget
and codec_dai capture widget for playback path and vice-versa is
true for capture path. In order for this aforementioned route to get
triggered, DAPM needs to find a valid endpoint which could be either
a sink or source widget corresponding to playback and capture path
respectively.
In order to trigger this dai_link widget, a thin codec driver for
the speaker amp can be created as demonstrated in wm8727.c file, it
sets appropriate constraints for the device even if it needs no control.
Make sure to name your corresponding cpu and codec playback and capture
dai names ending with "Playback" and "Capture" respectively as dapm core
will link and power those dais based on the name.
Note that in current device tree there is no way to mark a dai_link
as codec to codec. However, it may change in future.

-----------------------------------
Codec DAI and PCM configuration

Each codec driver must have a struct snd_soc_dai_driver to define its DAI and
PCM capabilities and operations. This struct is exported so that it can be
registered with the core by your machine driver.

The codec can usually be controlled via an I2C or SPI style interface

codec drivers for example regmap usage.

2.1 Stream Domain Widgets
-------------------------
Stream Domain Widgets
---------------------
Stream Widgets relate to the stream power domain and only consist of ADCs
(analog to digital converters), DACs (digital to analog converters),
AIF IN and AIF OUT.
Stream widgets have the following format:-
::
SND_SOC_DAPM_DAC(name, stream name, reg, shift, invert),
SND_SOC_DAPM_AIF_IN(name, stream, slot, reg, shift, invert)
SND_SOC_DAPM_DAC(name, stream name, reg, shift, invert),
SND_SOC_DAPM_AIF_IN(name, stream, slot, reg, shift, invert)
NOTE: the stream name must match the corresponding stream name in your codec
snd_soc_codec_dai.
e.g. stream widgets for HiFi playback and capture
::

2.2 Path Domain Widgets
-----------------------
Path Domain Widgets
-------------------
Path domain widgets have a ability to control or affect the audio signal or
audio paths within the audio subsystem. They have the following form:-
::
SND_SOC_DAPM_PGA(name, reg, shift, invert, controls, num_controls)
SND_SOC_DAPM_PGA(name, reg, shift, invert, controls, num_controls)

2.3 Machine domain Widgets
--------------------------
Machine domain Widgets
----------------------
Machine widgets are different from codec widgets in that they don't have a
codec register bit associated with them. A machine widget is assigned to each
machine audio component (non codec or DSP) that can be independently
powered. e.g.
o Speaker Amp
o Microphone Bias
o Jack connectors
* Speaker Amp
* Microphone Bias
* Jack connectors
A machine widget can have an optional call back.

2.4 Codec (BIAS) Domain
-----------------------
Codec (BIAS) Domain
-------------------
The codec bias power domain has no widgets and is handled by the codecs DAPM
event handler. This handler is called when the codec powerstate is changed wrt
to any stream event or by kernel PM events.
2.5 Virtual Widgets
-------------------
Virtual Widgets
---------------
Sometimes widgets exist in the codec or machine audio map that don't have any
corresponding soft power control. In this case it is necessary to create
a virtual widget - a widget with no control bits e.g.

SND_SOC_DAPM_MIXER("AC97 Mixer", SND_SOC_DAPM_NOPM, 0, 0, NULL, 0),

Startup Order :- DAC --> Mixers --> Output PGA --> Digital Unmute
Shutdown Order :- Digital Mute --> Output PGA --> Mixers --> DAC
Startup Order :- DAC --> Mixers --> Output PGA --> Digital Unmute

This assumes that the codec PCM output path from the DAC is via a mixer and then
a PGA (programmable gain amplifier) before being output to the speakers.
