From 945e5038455fef18e73914c149717878d78cb4c0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Liam Girdwood Date: Wed, 8 Feb 2012 20:33:31 +0000 Subject: ALSA: PCM - Add PCM creation API for internal PCMs. The new ASoC dynamic PCM core needs to create PCMs and substreams that are for use by internal ASoC drivers only and not visible to userspace for direct IO. These new PCMs are similar to regular PCMs expect they have no device nodes or procfs entries. The ASoC component drivers use them in exactly the same way as regular PCMs for PCM and DAI operations. The intention is that a dynamic PCM based driver will register both regular PCMs and internal PCMs. The regular PCMs will be used for all IO with userspace however the internal PCMs will be used by the driver to route digital audio through numerous back end DAI links (with potentially a DSP providing different hw_params, DAI formats based on the regular front end PCM params) to devices like CODECs, MODEMs, Bluetooth, FM, DMICs, etc This patch adds a new snd_pcm_new_internal() API call to create the internal PCM without device nodes or procfs. It also adds adds a new internal flag to snd_pcm.
