2022-09-27ALSA: pcm: Avoid reference to status->stateTakashi Iwai1-8/+8
In the PCM core and driver code, there are lots place referring to the current PCM state via runtime->status->state. This patch introduced a local PCM state in runtime itself and replaces those references with runtime->state. It has improvements in two aspects: - The reduction of a indirect access leads to more code optimization - It avoids a possible (unexpected) modification of the state via mmap of the status record The status->state is updated together with runtime->state, so that user-space can still read the current state via mmap like before, too. This patch touches only the ALSA core code. The changes in each driver will follow in later patches.

2022-03-30ALSA: pcm: Fix potential AB/BA lock with buffer_mutex and mmap_lockTakashi Iwai1-4/+5
syzbot caught a potential deadlock between the PCM runtime->buffer_mutex and the mm->mmap_lock. It was brought by the recent fix to cover the racy read/write and other ioctls, and in that commit, I overlooked a (hopefully only) corner case that may take the revert lock, namely, the OSS mmap. The OSS mmap operation exceptionally allows to re-configure the parameters inside the OSS mmap syscall, where mm->mmap_mutex is already held. Meanwhile, the copy_from/to_user calls at read/write operations also take the mm->mmap_lock internally, hence it may lead to a AB/BA deadlock. A similar problem was already seen in the past and we fixed it with a refcount (in commit b248371628aa). The former fix covered only the call paths with OSS read/write and OSS ioctls, while we need to cover the concurrent access via both ALSA and OSS APIs now. This patch addresses the problem above by replacing the buffer_mutex lock in the read/write operations with a refcount similar as we've used for OSS. The new field, runtime->buffer_accessing, keeps the number of concurrent read/write operations. Unlike the former buffer_mutex protection, this protects only around the copy_from/to_user() calls; the other codes are basically protected by the PCM stream lock. The refcount can be a negative, meaning blocked by the ioctls. If a negative value is seen, the read/write aborts with -EBUSY. In the ioctl side, OTOH, they check this refcount, too, and set to a negative value for blocking unless it's already being accessed.

2022-03-22ALSA: pcm: Fix races among concurrent read/write and buffer changesTakashi Iwai1-0/+4
In the current PCM design, the read/write syscalls (as well as the equivalent ioctls) are allowed before the PCM stream is running, that is, at PCM PREPARED state. Meanwhile, we also allow to re-issue hw_params and hw_free ioctl calls at the PREPARED state that may change or free the buffers, too. The problem is that there is no protection against those mix-ups. This patch applies the previously introduced runtime->buffer_mutex to the read/write operations so that the concurrent hw_params or hw_free call can no longer interfere during the operation. The mutex is unlocked before scheduling, so we don't take it too long.

2021-10-18ALSA: memalloc: Support for non-contiguous page allocationTakashi Iwai1-0/+5
This patch adds the support for allocation of non-contiguous DMA pages in the common memalloc helper. It's another SG-buffer type, but unlike the existing one, this is directional and requires the explicit sync / invalidation of dirty pages on non-coherent architectures. For this enhancement, the following points are changed: - snd_dma_device stores the DMA direction. - snd_dma_device stores need_sync flag indicating whether the explicit sync is required or not. - A new variant of helper functions, snd_dma_alloc_dir_pages() and *_all() are introduced; the old snd_dma_alloc_pages() and *_all() kept as just wrappers with DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL. - A new helper snd_dma_buffer_sync() is introduced; this gets called in the appropriate places. - A new allocation type, SNDRV_DMA_TYPE_NONCONTIG, is introduced. When the driver allocates pages with this new type, and it may require the SNDRV_PCM_INFO_EXPLICIT_SYNC flag set to the PCM hardware.info for taking the full control of PCM applptr and hwptr changes (that implies disabling the mmap of control/status data). When the buffer allocation is managed by snd_pcm_set_managed_buffer(), this flag is automatically set depending on the result of dma_need_sync() internally. Otherwise, if the buffer is managed manually, the driver has to set the flag explicitly, too. The explicit sync between CPU and device for non-coherent memory is performed at the points before and after read/write transfer as well as the applptr/hwptr syncptr ioctl. In the case of mmap mode, user-space is supposed to call the syncptr ioctl with the hwptr flag to update and fetch the status at first; this corresponds to CPU-sync. Then user-space advances the applptr via syncptr ioctl again with applptr flag, and this corresponds to the device sync with flushing. Other than the DMA direction and the explicit sync, the usage of this new buffer type is almost equivalent with the existing SNDRV_DMA_TYPE_DEV_SG; you can get the page and the address via snd_sgbuf_get_page() and snd_sgbuf_get_addr(), also calculate the continuous pages via snd_sgbuf_get_chunk_size(). For those SG-page handling, the non-contig type shares the same ops with the vmalloc handler. As we do always vmap the SG pages at first, the actual address can be deduced from the vmapped address easily without iterating the SG-list.

PCM substream Current implementation of ALSA PCM core has a kernel API, snd_pcm_period_elapsed(), for drivers to queue event to awaken processes from waiting for available frames. The function voluntarily acquires lock of PCM substream, therefore it is not called in process context for any PCM operation since the lock is already acquired. It is convenient for packet-oriented driver, at least for drivers to audio and music unit in IEEE 1394 bus. The drivers are allowed by Linux FireWire subsystem to process isochronous packets queued till recent isochronous cycle in process context in any time.

2020-05-18ALSA: pcm: fix incorrect hw_base increaseBrent Lu1-0/+1
There is a corner case that ALSA keeps increasing the hw_ptr but DMA already stop working/updating the position for a long time. In following log we can see the position returned from DMA driver does not move at all but the hw_ptr got increased at some point of time so snd_pcm_avail() will return a large number which seems to be a buffer underrun event from user space program point of view. The program thinks there is space in the buffer and fill more data.

As the hw_base increases, so does the hw_ptr increased by the same number. The avail value returned from snd_pcm_avail() could exceed the limit (buffer_size) easily becase the hw_ptr itself got increased by same buffer_size samples when the corner case happens. In following log, the buffer_size is 16368 samples but the avail is 21810 samples so CRAS server complains about it.

2020-01-04ALSA: control: Add verification for kctl accessesTakashi Iwai1-1/+1
The current implementation of ALSA control API fully relies on the callbacks of each driver, and there is no verification of the values passed via API. This patch is an attempt to improve the situation slightly by adding the validation code for the values stored via info and get callbacks. The patch adds a new kconfig, CONFIG_SND_CTL_VALIDATION. It depends on CONFIG_SND_DEBUG and off as default since the validation would require a slight overhead including the additional call of info callback at each get callback invocation. When this config is enabled, the values stored by each info callback invocation are verified, namely: - Whether the info type is valid - Whether the number of enum items is non-zero - Whether the given info count is within the allowed boundary Similarly, the values stored at each get callback are verified as well: - Whether the values are within the given range - Whether the values are aligned with the given step - Whether any further changes are seen in the data array over the given info count The last point helps identifying a possibly invalid data type access, typically a case where the info callback declares the type being SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_TYPE_ENUMERATED while the get/put callbacks store the values in value.integer.value[] array. When a validation fails, the ALSA core logs an error message including the device and the control ID, and the API call also returns an error. So, with the new validation turned on, the driver behavior difference may be visible on user-space, too -- it's intentional, though, so that we can catch an error more clearly. The patch also introduces a new ctl access type, SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_ACCESS_SKIP_CHECK. A driver may pass this flag with other access bits to indicate that the ctl element won't be verified. It's useful when a driver code is specially written to access the data greater than info->count size by some reason. For example, this flag is actually set now in HD-audio HDMI codec driver which needs to clear the data array in the case of the disconnected monitor. Also, the PCM channel-map helper code is slightly modified to avoid the false-positive hit by this validation code, too.

git://git.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/playground into for-next ALSA: Fix year 2038 issue for sound subsystem This is a series I worked on with Baolin in 2017 and 2018, but we never quite managed to finish up the last pieces. During the ALSA developer meetup at ELC-E 2018 in Edinburgh, a decision was made to go with this approach for keeping best compatibility with existing source code, and then I failed to follow up by resending the patches. Now I have patches for all remaining time_t uses in the kernel, so it's absolutely time to revisit them. I have done more review of the patches myself and found a couple of minor issues that I have fixed up, otherwise the series is still the same as before. Conceptually, the idea of these patches is: - 64-bit applications should see no changes at all, neither compile-time nor run-time. - 32-bit code compiled with a 64-bit time_t currently does not work with ALSA, and requires kernel changes and/or sound/asound.h changes - Most 32-bit code using these interfaces will work correctly on a modified kernel, with or without the uapi header changes. - 32-bit code using SNDRV_TIMER_IOCTL_TREAD requires the updated header file for 64-bit time_t support - 32-bit i386 user space with 64-bit time_t is broken for SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_STATUS, SNDRV_RAWMIDI_IOCTL_STATUS and SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_SYNC_PTR because of i386 alignment. This is also addressed by the updated uapi header. - PCM mmap is currently supported on native x86 kernels (both 32-bit and 64-bit) but not for compat mode. This series breaks the 32-bit native mmap support for 32-bit time_t, but instead allows it for 64-bit time_t on both native and compat kernels. This seems to be the best trade-off, as mmap support is optional already, and most 32-bit code runs in compat mode anyway. - I've tried to avoid breaking compilation of 32-bit code as much as possible. Anything that does break however is likely code that is already broken on 64-bit time_t and needs source changes to fix them.

2019-12-13ALSA: add new 32-bit layout for snd_pcm_mmap_status/controlArnd Bergmann1-4/+6
The snd_pcm_mmap_status and snd_pcm_mmap_control interfaces are one of the trickiest areas to get right when moving to 64-bit time_t in user space. The snd_pcm_mmap_status structure layout is incompatible with user space that uses a 64-bit time_t, so we need a new layout for it. Since the SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_SYNC_PTR ioctl combines it with snd_pcm_mmap_control into snd_pcm_sync_ptr, we need to change those two as well. Both structures are also exported via an mmap() operation on certain architectures, and this suffers from incompatibility between 32-bit and 64-bit user space. As we have to change both structures anyway, this is a good opportunity to fix the mmap() problem as well, so let's standardize on the existing 64-bit layout of the structure where possible. The downside is that we lose mmap() support for existing 32-bit x86 and powerpc applications, adding that would introduce very noticeable runtime overhead and complexity. My assumption here is that not too many people will miss the removed feature, given that: - Almost all x86 and powerpc users these days are on 64-bit kernels, the majority of today's 32-bit users are on architectures that never supported mmap (ARM, MIPS, ...). - It never worked in compat mode (it was intentionally disabled there) - The application already needs to work with a fallback to SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_SYNC_PTR, which will keep working with both the old and new structure layout. Both the ioctl() and mmap() based interfaces are changed at the same time, as they are based on the same structures. Unlike other interfaces, we change the uapi header to export both the traditional structure and a version that is portable between 32-bit and 64-bit user space code and that corresponds to the existing 64-bit layout. We further check the __USE_TIME_BITS64 macro that will be defined by future C library versions whenever we use the new time_t definition, so any existing user space source code will not see any changes until it gets rebuilt against a new C library. However, the new structures are all visible in addition to the old ones, allowing applications to explicitly request the new structures. In order to detect the difference between the old snd_pcm_mmap_status and the new __snd_pcm_mmap_status64 structure from the ioctl command number, we rely on one quirk in the structure definition: snd_pcm_mmap_status must be aligned to alignof(time_t), which leads the compiler to insert four bytes of padding in struct snd_pcm_sync_ptr after 'flags' and a corresponding change in the size of snd_pcm_sync_ptr itself. On x86-32 (and only there), the compiler doesn't use 64-bit alignment in structure, so I'm adding an explicit pad in the structure that has no effect on the existing 64-bit architectures but ensures that the layout matches for x86. The snd_pcm_uframes_t type compatibility requires another hack: we can't easily make that 64 bit wide, so I leave the type as 'unsigned long', but add padding before and after it, to ensure that the data is properly aligned to the respective 64-bit field in the in-kernel structure. For the SNDRV_PCM_MMAP_OFFSET_STATUS/CONTROL constants that are used as the virtual file offset in the mmap() function, we also have to introduce new constants that depend on hte __USE_TIME_BITS64 macro: The existing macros are renamed to SNDRV_PCM_MMAP_OFFSET_STATUS_OLD and SNDRV_PCM_MMAP_OFFSET_CONTROL_OLD, they continue to work fine on 64-bit architectures, but stop working on native 32-bit user space. The replacement _NEW constants are now used by default for user space built with __USE_TIME_BITS64, those now work on all new kernels for x86, ppc and alpha (32 and 64 bit, native and compat). It might be a good idea for a future alsa-lib to support both the _OLD and _NEW macros and use the corresponding structures directly. Unmodified alsa-lib source code will retain the current behavior, so it will no longer be able to use mmap() for the status/control structures on 32-bit systems, until either the C library gets updated to 64-bit time_t or alsa-lib gets updated to support both mmap() layouts.

In the commit 62ba568f7aef ("ALSA: pcm: Return 0 when size < start_threshold in capture"), we changed the behavior of __snd_pcm_lib_xfer() to return immediately with 0 when a capture stream has a high start_threshold. This was intended to be a correction of the behavior consistency and looked harmless, but this was the culprit of the recent breakage reported by syzkaller, which was fixed by the commit e190161f96b8 ("ALSA: pcm: Fix tight loop of OSS capture stream"). At the time for the OSS fix, I didn't touch the behavior for ALSA native API, as assuming that this behavior actually is good. But this turned out to be also broken actually for a similar deployment, e.g. one thread goes to a write loop in blocking mode while another thread controls the start/stop of the stream manually. Overall, the original commit is harmful, and it brings less merit to keep that behavior. Let's revert it.

2019-01-25ALSA: pcm: Fix tight loop of OSS capture streamTakashi Iwai1-1/+8
When the trigger=off is passed for a PCM OSS stream, it sets the start_threshold of the given substream to the boundary size, so that it won't be automatically started. This can be problematic for a capture stream, unfortunately, as detected by syzkaller. The scenario is like the following: - In __snd_pcm_lib_xfer() that is invoked from snd_pcm_oss_read() loop, we have a check whether the stream was already started or the stream can be auto-started. - The function at this check returns 0 with trigger=off since we explicitly disable the auto-start. - The loop continues and repeats calling __snd_pcm_lib_xfer() tightly, which may lead to an RCU stall. This patch fixes the bug by simply allowing the wait for non-started stream in the case of OSS capture. For native usages, it's supposed to be done by the caller side (which is user-space), hence it returns zero like before. (In theory, __snd_pcm_lib_xfer() could wait even for the native API usage cases, too; but I'd like to stay in a safer side for not breaking the existing stuff for now.)

This happens while it tries to open and set up the aloop device concurrently. The warning above (invoked from snd_BUG_ON() macro) is to detect the unexpected logical error where snd_pcm_hw_refine() call shouldn't fail. The theory is true for the case where the hw_params config rules are static. But for an aloop device, the hw_params rule condition does vary dynamically depending on the connected target; when another device is opened and changes the parameters, the device connected in another side is also affected, and it caused the error from snd_pcm_hw_refine(). That is, the simplest "solution" for this is to remove the incorrect assumption of static rules, and treat such an error as a normal error path. As there are a couple of other places using snd_BUG_ON() incorrectly, this patch removes these spurious snd_BUG_ON() calls.

2017-11-21ALSA: pcm: update tstamp only if audio_tstamp changedHenrik Eriksson1-2/+4
commit 3179f6200188 ("ALSA: core: add .get_time_info") had a side effect of changing the behaviour of the PCM runtime tstamp. Prior to this change tstamp was not updated by snd_pcm_update_hw_ptr0() unless the hw_ptr had moved, after this change tstamp was always updated. For an application using alsa-lib, doing snd_pcm_readi() followed by snd_pcm_status() to estimate the age of the read samples by subtracting status->avail * [sample rate] from status->tstamp this change degraded the accuracy of the estimate on devices where the pcm hw does not provide a granular hw_ptr, e.g., devices using soc-generic-dmaengine-pcm.c and a dma-engine with residue_granularity DMA_RESIDUE_GRANULARITY_DESCRIPTOR. The accuracy of the estimate depended on the latency between the PCM hw completing a period and the driver called snd_pcm_period_elapsed() to notify ALSA core, typically determined by interrupt handling latency. After the change the accuracy of the estimate depended on the latency between the PCM hw completing a period and the application calling snd_pcm_status(), determined by the scheduling of the application process. The maximum error of the estimate is one period length in both cases, but the error average and variance is smaller when it depends on interrupt latency. Instead of always updating tstamp, update it only if audio_tstamp changed.

2017-06-20ALSA: pcm: Fix possible inconsistent appl_ptr update via mmapTakashi Iwai1-6/+7
The ALSA PCM core refers to the appl_ptr value stored on the mmapped page that is shared between kernel and user-space. Although the reference is performed in the PCM stream lock, it doesn't guarantee the atomic access when the value gets updated concurrently from the user-space on another CPU. In most of codes, this is no big problem, but still there are a few places that may result in slight inconsistencies because they access runtime->control->appl_ptr multiple times; that is, the second read might be a different value from the first value. It can be even backward or jumping, as we have no control for it. Hence, the calculation may give an unexpected value. Luckily, there is no security vulnerability by that, as far as I've checked. But still we should address it. This patch tries to reduce such possible cases. The fix is simple -- we just read once, store it to a local variable and use it for the rest calculations. The READ_ONCE() macro is used for it in order to avoid the ill-effect by possible compiler optimizations.

OTOH, another part of code paths are from the explicit user call, e.g. via SYNC_PTR ioctl. There, we may receive the same appl_ptr value, and in such a case, calling ack is obviously superfluous. This patch adds the check of the given appl_ptr value, and returns immediately if it's no real update.

2017-06-12ALSA: pcm: add 'applptr' event of tracepointTakashi Sakamoto1-0/+4
In design of ALSA PCM core, status and control data for runtime of ALSA PCM substream are shared between kernel/user spaces by page frame mapping with read-only attribute. Both of hardware-side and application-side position on PCM buffer are maintained as a part of the status data. In a view of ALSA PCM application, these two positions can be updated by executing ioctl(2) with some commands. There's an event of tracepoint for hardware-side position; 'hwptr'. On the other hand, no events for application-side position. This commit adds a new event for this purpose; 'applptr'. When the application-side position is changed in kernel space, this event is probed with useful information for developers. I note that the event is not probed for all of ALSA PCM applications, When applications are written by read/write programming scenario, the event is surely probed. The applications execute ioctl(2) with SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_[READ|WRITE][N/I]_FRAMES to read/write any PCM frame, then ALSA PCM core updates the application-side position in kernel land. However, when applications are written by mmap programming scenario, if maintaining the application side position in kernel space accurately, applications should voluntarily execute ioctl(2) with SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_SYNC_PTR to commit the number of handled PCM frames. If not voluntarily, the application-side position is not changed, thus the added event is not probed. There's a loophole, using architectures to which ALSA PCM core judges non cache coherent. In this case, the status and control data is not mapped into processe's VMA for any applications. Userland library, alsa-lib, is programmed for this case. It executes ioctl(2) with SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_SYNC_PTR command every time to requiring the status and control data. ARM is such an architecture. Below is an example with serial sound interface (ssi) on i.mx6 quad core SoC. I use v4.1 kernel released by fsl-community with patches from VIA Tech. Inc. for VAB820, and my backport patches for relevant features for this patchset. I use Ubuntu 17.04 from ports.ubuntu.com as user land for armhf architecture. $ aplay -v -M -D hw:imx6vab820sgtl5,0 /dev/urandom -f S16_LE -r 48000 --period-size=128 --buffer-size=256 Playing raw data '/dev/urandom' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 48000 Hz, Mono Hardware PCM card 0 'imx6-vab820-sgtl5000' device 0 subdevice 0 Its setup is: stream : PLAYBACK access : MMAP_INTERLEAVED format : S16_LE subformat : STD channels : 1 rate : 48000 exact rate : 48000 (48000/1) msbits : 16 buffer_size : 256 period_size : 128 period_time : 2666 tstamp_mode : NONE tstamp_type : MONOTONIC period_step : 1 avail_min : 128 period_event : 0 start_threshold : 256 stop_threshold : 256 silence_threshold: 0 silence_size : 0 boundary : 1073741824 appl_ptr : 0 hw_ptr : 0 mmap_area[0] = 0x76f98000,0,16 (16) $ trace-cmd record -e snd_pcm:hwptr -e snd_pcm:applptr $ trace-cmd report ... 60.208495: applptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: prev=1792, curr=1792, avail=0, period=128, buf=256 60.208633: applptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: prev=1792, curr=1792, avail=0, period=128, buf=256 60.210022: hwptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: IRQ: pos=128, old=1536, base=1536, period=128, buf=256 60.210202: applptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: prev=1792, curr=1792, avail=128, period=128, buf=256 60.210344: hwptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: POS: pos=128, old=1664, base=1536, period=128, buf=256 60.210348: applptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: prev=1792, curr=1792, avail=128, period=128, buf=256 60.210486: applptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: prev=1792, curr=1792, avail=128, period=128, buf=256 60.210626: applptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: prev=1792, curr=1920, avail=0, period=128, buf=256 60.211002: applptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: prev=1920, curr=1920, avail=0, period=128, buf=256 60.211142: hwptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: POS: pos=128, old=1664, base=1536, period=128, buf=256 60.211146: applptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: prev=1920, curr=1920, avail=0, period=128, buf=256 60.211287: applptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: prev=1920, curr=1920, avail=0, period=128, buf=256 60.212690: hwptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: IRQ: pos=0, old=1664, base=1536, period=128, buf=256 60.212866: applptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: prev=1920, curr=1920, avail=128, period=128, buf=256 60.212999: hwptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: POS: pos=0, old=1792, base=1792, period=128, buf=256 60.213003: applptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: prev=1920, curr=1920, avail=128, period=128, buf=256 60.213135: applptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: prev=1920, curr=1920, avail=128, period=128, buf=256 60.213276: applptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: prev=1920, curr=2048, avail=0, period=128, buf=256 60.213654: applptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: prev=2048, curr=2048, avail=0, period=128, buf=256 60.213796: hwptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: POS: pos=0, old=1792, base=1792, period=128, buf=256 60.213800: applptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: prev=2048, curr=2048, avail=0, period=128, buf=256 60.213937: applptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: prev=2048, curr=2048, avail=0, period=128, buf=256 60.215356: hwptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: IRQ: pos=128, old=1792, base=1792, period=128, buf=256 60.215542: applptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: prev=2048, curr=2048, avail=128, period=128, buf=256 60.215679: hwptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: POS: pos=128, old=1920, base=1792, period=128, buf=256 60.215683: applptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: prev=2048, curr=2048, avail=128, period=128, buf=256 60.215813: applptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: prev=2048, curr=2048, avail=128, period=128, buf=256 60.215947: applptr: pcmC0D0p/sub0: prev=2048, curr=2176, avail=0, period=128, buf=256 ...

This equals to the size of period of PCM buffer. Comparing to the probed data, one of the 7 calls of ioctl(2) is actually used to commit the number of copied PCM frames to kernel space. The other calls are just used to check runtime status of PCM substream; e.g. XRUN. The tracepoint event is useful to investigate this case. I note that below modules are related to the above sample. * snd-soc-dummy.ko * snd-soc-imx-sgtl5000.ko * snd-soc-fsl-ssi.ko * snd-soc-imx-pcm-dma.ko * snd-soc-sgtl5000.ko My additional note is lock acquisition. The event is probed under acquiring PCM stream lock. This means that calculation in the event is free from any hardware events.

2017-06-12ALSA: pcm: unify codes to operate application-side position on PCM bufferTakashi Sakamoto1-3/+24
In a series of recent work, ALSA PCM core got some arrangements to handle application-side position on PCM buffer. However, relevant codes still disperse to two translation units This commit unifies these codes into a helper function.
