  Rationalize fasync return values

60aa49243d Rationalize fasync return values
Most fasync implementations do something like:

     return fasync_helper(...);

But fasync_helper() will return a positive value at times - a feature used
in at least one place.  Thus, a number of other drivers do:

     err = fasync_helper(...);
     if (err < 0)
             return err;
     return 0;

In the interests of consistency and more concise code, it makes sense to
map positive return values onto zero where ->fasync() is called.

233e70f422 saner FASYNC handling on file close
As it is, all instances of ->release() for files that have ->fasync()
need to remember to evict file from fasync lists; forgetting that
creates a hole and we actually have a bunch that *does* forget.

So let's keep our lives simple - let __fput() check FASYNC in
file->f_flags and call ->fasync() there if it's been set.  And lose that
crap in ->release() instances - leaving it there is still valid, but we
don't have to bother anymore.

685d87f7cc Revert "pcm_native.c: remove unused label"
This reverts commit 680db0136e.  The label
is actually used, but hidden behind CONFIG_SND_DEBUG and the horrible
snd_assert() macro.

That macro could probably be improved to be along the lines of

	#define snd_assert(expr, args...) do { if ((void)(expr),0) { args; } } while (0)

or similar to make sure that we always both evaluate 'expr' and parse
'args', but while gcc should optimize it all away, I'm too lazy to
really verify that.  So I'll just admit defeat and will continue to live
with the annoying warning.

8c12158687 [ALSA] PCM interface - rename SNDRV_PCM_TSTAMP_MMAP to SNDRV_PCM_TSTAMP_ENABLE
Change semantics for SNDRV_PCM_TSTAMP_MMAP. Doing timestamping only in
the interrupt handler might cause that hw_ptr is not related to actual
timestamp. With this change, grab timestamp at every hw_ptr update to
have always valid timestamp + ring buffer position pair.
With this change, SNDRV_PCM_TSTAMP_MMAP was renamed to
SNDRV_PCM_TSTAMP_ENABLE. It's no regression (I think).

31e8960b35 [ALSA] Remove PCM sleep_min and tick
The 'tick' in PCM is set (again) via sw_params.  And, nobody uses
this feature at all except for a command line option of aplay.
(This is literally 'nobody', as I checked alsa-lib API calls in all
 programs in major distros.)
Above all, if we need finer wake-ups for the position update, it's
basically an issue that the driver should solve, not tuned by each
application.

d948035a92 [ALSA] Remove PCM xfer_align sw params
The xfer_align sw_params parameter has never been used in a sane manner,
and no one understands what this does exactly.  The current
implementation looks also buggy because it allows write of shorter size
than xfer_align.  So, if you do partial writes, the write isn't actually
aligned at all.
Removing this parameter will make some pcm_lib_* code more readable
(and less buggy).

9442e691e4 [PATCH] maximum latency tracking: ALSA support
Add maximum latency tracking to the ALSA subsystem for PCM playback.  In
ALSA, the playback application controls the buffer size and thus indirectly
the period of latency that it can deal with.  This patch uses 75% of the
total available latency as threshold to announce to the latency subsystem;
While 75% is a crude heuristic it's a quite reasonable one; the remaining
25% can be used for all driver processing for the next samples which is
also proportional to the size of the buffer.

With ogg123 a latency setting of about 4msec was seen (at 44Khz), while
with the "play" command a much longer maximum tolerable latency was seen.
Other, more multimedia oriented players as well as games, will have a lot
smaller buffers to allow better synchronization and those will actually get
into the latency domains where there is impact on the power management
rules.

f87135f56c [ALSA] dynamic minors (3/6): store device-specific object pointers dynamically
Instead of storing the pointers to the device-specific structures in an
array, put them into the struct snd_minor, and look them up dynamically.

This makes the device type modules independent of the minor number
encoding.

2af677fc88 [ALSA] dynamic minors (1/6): store device type in struct snd_minor
Instead of a comment string, store the device type in the snd_minor
structure.  This makes snd_minor more flexible, and has the nice side
effect that we don't need anymore to create a separate snd_minor
template for registering a device but can pass the file_operations
directly to snd_register_device().
