2017-06-16ALSA: core: Follow standard EXPORT_SYMBOL() declarationsTakashi Iwai
Just a tidy up to follow the standard EXPORT_SYMBOL*() declarations in order to improve grep-ability. - Move EXPORT_SYMBOL*() to the position right after its definition - Remove superfluous blank line before EXPORT_SYMBOL*() lines Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
2015-05-27ALSA: replace CONFIG_PROC_FS with CONFIG_SND_PROC_FSJie Yang
We may disable proc fs only for sound part, to reduce ALSA memory footprint. So add CONFIG_SND_PROC_FS and replace the old CONFIG_PROC_FSs in alsa code. With sound proc fs disabled, we can save about 9KB memory size on X86_64 platform.

2015-04-24ALSA: core: Clean up OSS proc file managementTakashi Iwai
A few minor cleanups: - Move the call of snd_info_minor_register() into snd_info_init() so that we can call all proc-related stuff in a shot - Add missing __init prefix to snd_info_minor_register() - Return an error properly from snd_oss_info_register() - Drop snd_info_minor_unregister() that is superfluous now Acked-by: Jaroslav Kysela <perex@perex.cz> Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
2015-04-24ALSA: core: Don't ignore errors at creating proc filesTakashi Iwai
So far we've ignored the errors at creating proc files in many places. But they should be rather treated seriously. Also, by assuring the error handling, we can get rid of superfluous snd_info_free_entry() calls as they will be removed by the parent in the caller side. This patch fixes the missing error checks and reduces the superfluous free calls. Acked-by: Jaroslav Kysela <perex@perex.cz> Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
2015-04-24ALSA: core: Remove superfluous exit calls for proc entriesTakashi Iwai

2015-02-02ALSA: Simplify snd_device_register() variantsTakashi Iwai
Now that all callers have been replaced with snd_device_register_for_dev(), let's drop the obsolete device registration code and concentrate only on the code handling struct device directly. That said, - remove the old snd_device_register(), - rename snd_device_register_for_dev() with snd_device_register(), - drop superfluous arguments from snd_device_register(), - change snd_unregister_device() to pass the device pointer directly Reviewed-by: Jaroslav Kysela <perex@perex.cz> Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>

2014-02-25ALSA: Create sysfs attribute files via groupsTakashi Iwai
Instead of calling each time device_create_file(), create the groups of sysfs attribute files at once in a normal way. Add a new helper function, snd_get_device(), to return the associated device object, so that we can handle the sysfs addition locally. Since the sysfs file addition is done differently now, snd_add_device_sysfs_file() helper function is removed. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>

2010-11-24ALSA: support module on-demand loading for seq and timerKay Sievers
If CONFIG_SND_DYNAMIC_MINORS is used, assign /dev/snd/seq and /dev/snd/timer the usual static minors, and export specific module aliases to generate udev module on-demand loading instructions: $ cat /lib/modules/2.6.33.4-smp/modules.devname # Device nodes to trigger on-demand module loading. microcode cpu/microcode c10:184 fuse fuse c10:229 ppp_generic ppp c108:0 tun net/tun c10:200 uinput uinput c10:223 dm_mod mapper/control c10:236 snd_timer snd/timer c116:33 snd_seq snd/seq c116:1 The last two lines instruct udev to create device nodes, even when the modules are not loaded at that time. As soon as userspace accesses any of these nodes, the in-kernel module-loader will load the module, and the device can be used. The header file minor calculation needed to be simplified to make __stringify() (supports only two indirections) in the MODULE_ALIAS macro work. This is part of systemd's effort to get rid of unconditional module load instructions and needless init scripts.

2010-10-15llseek: automatically add .llseek fopArnd Bergmann
All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a .llseek pointer. The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek. New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code relies on calling seek on the device file. The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle. Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window. Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic patch that does all this. ===== begin semantic patch ===== // This adds an llseek= method to all file operations, // as a preparation for making no_llseek the default. // // The rules are // - use no_llseek explicitly if we do nonseekable_open // - use seq_lseek for sequential files // - use default_llseek if we know we access f_pos // - use noop_llseek if we know we don't access f_pos, // but we still want to allow users to call lseek // @ open1 exists @ identifier nested_open; @@ nested_open(...) { <+... nonseekable_open(...) ...+> } @ open exists@ identifier open_f; identifier i, f; identifier open1.nested_open; @@ int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f) { <+...

2009-01-06Check fops_get() return valueLaurent Pinchart
Several subsystem open handlers dereference the fops_get() return value without checking it for nullness. This opens a race condition between the open handler and module unloading. A module can be marked as being unloaded (MODULE_STATE_GOING) before its exit function is called and gets the chance to unregister the driver. During that window open handlers can still be called, and fops_get() will fail in try_module_get() and return a NULL pointer. This change checks the fops_get() return value and returns -ENODEV if NULL.

2008-08-01ALSA: Fix limit of 8 PCM devices in SNDRV_CTL_IOCTL_PCM_NEXT_DEVICEPawel MOLL
When compiled with CONFIG_SND_DYNAMIC_MINORS the ALSA core is fine to have more than 8 PCM devices per card, except one place - the SNDRV_CTL_IOCTL_PCM_NEXT_DEVICE ioctl, which will not enumerate devices > 7. This patch fixes the issue, changing the devices list organisation. Instead of adding new device to the tail, the list is now kept always ordered (by card number, then device number). Thus, during enumeration, it is easy to discover the fact that there is no more given card's devices. Additionally the device field of struct snd_pcm had to be changed to int, as its "unsignednity" caused a lot of problems when comparing it to potentially negative signed values.

Thus, during enumeration, it is easy to discover the fact that there is no more given card's devices. The same limit was present in OSS emulation code. It has been fixed as well. Additionally the device field of struct snd_pcm is now int, instead of unsigned int, as there is no obvious reason for keeping it unsigned. This caused a lot of problems with comparing this value with other (almost always signed) variables. There is just one more place where device number is unsigned - in struct snd_pcm_info, which should be also sorted out in future.

The device in each entry doesn't point the correct device object: /sys/class/sound ... |-- pcmC0D0c | |-- dev | |-- device -> ../../../class/sound/card0 | |-- pcm_class | |-- power | | `-- wakeup | |-- subsystem -> ../../../class/sound | `-- uevent Also, this change breaks some drivers (like sound/arm/*) referring card->dev directly to obtain the device object for memory handling. This patch reverts the semantics of card->dev to the former version, which points to a real device object. The card* object is stored in a new card->card_dev field, instead. The device parent is chosen either card->dev or card->card_dev according to CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED to keep the tree compatibility. Also, card* isn't created if CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED is enabled. The reason of card* object is a root of all beloing devices, and it makes little sense if each sound device points to the real device object directly.

2006-12-01Driver core: convert sound core to use struct deviceGreg Kroah-Hartman
Converts from using struct "class_device" to "struct device" making everything show up properly in /sys/devices/ with symlinks from the /sys/class directory. It also makes the struct sound_card to show up as a "real" device where all the different sound class devices are placed as childs and different card attribute files can hang off of. /sys/class/sound is still a flat directory, but the symlink targets of all devices belonging to the same card, point the the /sys/devices tree below the new card device object.

2006-09-23[ALSA] Add pcm_class attribute to PCM sysfs entryTakashi Iwai
This patch adds a new attribute, pcm_class, to each PCM sysfs entry. It's useful to detect what kind of PCM stream is, for example, HAL can check whether it's a modem or not. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Jaroslav Kysela <perex@suse.cz>
