* ALSA: support module on-demand loading for seq and timerKay Sievers2010-11-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* ALSA: Fix limit of 8 PCM devices in SNDRV_CTL_IOCTL_PCM_NEXT_DEVICEPawel MOLL2008-08-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. (-1 is 0xffffffff or even more then ;-) Signed-off-by: Pawel Moll <pawel.moll@st.com> Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Jaroslav Kysela <perex@perex.cz>

* ALSA: Fix limit of 8 PCM devices in SNDRV_CTL_IOCTL_PCM_NEXT_DEVICEPawel MOLL2008-07-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. 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.

* [ALSA] clean up device types symbolsClemens Ladisch2005-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | Modules: ALSA Core,ALSA Minor Numbers Remove the unused and undefined symbols SNDRV_DEVICE_TYPE_{MIXER, PCM_PLOOP,PCM_CLOOP}, and introduce a new symbol SNDRV_MINOR_GLOBAL for non-card-specific devices like the sequencer or the timer.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
