Once allocated, isochronous resources are available for packet streaming, even if the streaming is cancelled. For this reason, current implementation handles allocation of the resources and starting packet streaming at the same time. However, this brings complicated procedure to start packet streaming. This commit separates the allocation and starting. The allocation is done in pcm.hw_params callback and available till pcm.hw_free callback. Even if any XRUN occurs, pcm.prepare callback is done to restart packet streaming without releasing/allocating the resources. There are two points to stop packet streaming; in pcm.hw_params and pcm.prepare callbacks. The former point is a case that packet streaming is already started for any MIDI substream then packet streaming is requested with different sampling transfer frequency for any PCM substream. The latter point is cases of any XRUN or packet queueing error. Signed-off-by: Takashi Sakamoto <o-takashi@sakamocchi.jp> 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.
