ALSA: synth: Use guard() for preset locks

2025-09-01T11:54:27+00:00

Define a macro for the preset locking/unlocking pairs for soundfont using guard() macro as a further code cleanup. The new macro is put in soundfont.h (and some function renames) along with it for avoiding unnecessary troubles with clang.

ALSA: synth: Use guard() for spin locks

2025-09-01T11:54:26+00:00

Clean up the code using guard() for spin locks. Merely code refactoring, and no behavior change. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250829151335.7342-5-tiwai@suse.de

ALSA: synth: Use guard() for mutex locks

2025-09-01T11:54:26+00:00

Replace the manual mutex lock/unlock pairs with guard() for code simplification. Only code refactoring, and no behavior change. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250829151335.7342-4-tiwai@suse.de

ALSA: synth: Use safer strscpy() instead of strcpy()

2025-07-11T07:53:35+00:00

Use a safer function strscpy() instead of strcpy() for copying to arrays. Only idiomatic code replacement, and no functional changes. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250710100727.22653-95-tiwai@suse.de

treewide, timers: Rename from_timer() to timer_container_of()

ALSA: emux: Use standard print API

2024-08-08T05:49:46+00:00

Use the standard print API with dev_*() instead of the old house-baked one. It gives better information and allows dynamically control of debug prints. Some functions are changed to receive snd_card object for calling dev_*() functions, too.

ALSA: misc: Use -y instead of -objs in Makefile

2024-05-08T16:18:13+00:00

*-objs suffix is reserved rather for (user-space) host programs while usually *-y suffix is used for kernel drivers (although *-objs works for that purpose for now). Let's correct the old usages of *-objs in Makefiles.

ALSA: emux: simplify snd_sf_list.callback handling

2024-04-07T06:35:53+00:00

Both drivers provide both sample_new and sample_free, and it makes no sense to pretend that they could not. In fact, load_data() would already crash if sample_new was null. So remove the remaining null checks. Contrary to that, the emu10k1 driver actually has a null sample_reset, though I'm not convinced that this inconsistency is justified.

ALSA: emux: improve patch ioctl data validation

2024-04-07T06:35:48+00:00

In load_data(), make the validation of and skipping over the main info block match that in load_guspatch(). In load_guspatch(), add checking that the specified patch length matches the actually supplied data, like load_data() already did.

ALSA: emux: centralize & improve patch info validation

2024-04-07T06:35:47+00:00

This does several closely related things: - Move the code from the drivers into the SoundFont loader, which de-duplicates it. - Sort of explain the weird "recalculate address offset" feature. Note that I don't think it actually makes any sense - the calling user space code should do that. The background is certainly that the source data (the SoundFont format) uses pointers into a single wave block (and the API allows doing the same for on-board ROM), but the API expects the wave data from user space to be pre-chopped into individual patches anyway. - Make sure that the specified offsets actually lie within the supplied wave data. Note that we don't validate ROM offsets, so one can play back anything within the sound card's address space. - In load_guspatch(), don't call the sample_new callback anymore when the patch size is zero, as was already the case in load_data(). The callbacks would instantly return in that case anyway; these checks are now removed.
