From: Pierre-Louis Bossart <pierre-louis.bossart@linux.intel.com>

Add new hw_params flag to explicitly tell driver that rewinds will never
be used. This can be used by low-level driver to optimize DMA operations
and reduce power consumption. Use this flag only when data written in
ring buffer will never be invalidated, e.g. any update of appl_ptr is
final.

Note that the update of appl_ptr include both a read/write data
operation as well as snd_pcm_forward() whose behavior is not modified.

Now I'm thinking whether this change is really needed or in the right
direction.  I suppose that the driver would change the behavior
depending on the flag of this flag.  But then how can application know
that it should not rewind on a certain device and set the flag?

We may, instead, let the driver behaving in the deep buffer mode as
default (or turned on/off via the kcontrol).  Then you can simply
return an error for the negative appl_ptr change in ack callback --
which effectively disables the rewind.


thanks,

Takashi

The application (which is in most cases an audio server) *knows* if it 
requires rewinds or not. It's part of its design, with rewinds typically 
disabled if period interrupts are required. It's been that way for a 
number of years now. The use of rewinds is typically associated with the 
combination of a large buffer and no interrupts (having either of the 
two would not require rewinds).

So the idea is that the application makes a statement that rewinds will 
not be used, and the low-level driver makes use of the information to 
enable whatever optimizations are available at the hardware level.

Exposing more information to userspace would quickly lead to a confusing 
decision-making and would require more than just a flag.

I could imagine that, but the usefulness of such a flag is shown only
with the actual usage.  So I'd say, let's include this together with
the actual user of this flag in the driver side.

The only question at this point is whether this addition of the flag
is appropriate.  Someone may think whether it's only about rewind?
What about forward?  Is hw_params flags the best?

I find it "OK, not very sexy but acceptable" for now.  But I'd like to
hear from other opinions.

Yes, that's another side of the coin, too.

Rewinds is already a problematic feature, e.g. in PulseAudio we had to 
introduce a notion of 'guard band' to avoid rewinding too close to the 
actual hardware pointer and update parts of the ring buffer that have 
already been fetched by a DMA transaction.
Disabling rewinds brings two main benefits
- if you work with small buffers, the DMA/DSP has information on how 
much information it can fetch in each transaction. This was always a 
nightmare for DSP firmware.
- if you work with large buffers, the DMA/DSP can fetch data whenever 
the path to memory is enabled at the system level due to other non-audio 
transfers, thus reducing unnecessary partial wakes in an SoC.
HW flags were chosen mainly because you would not want to change this 
dynamically (which excludes sw_params) and it follows the same logic as 
the no-interrupt flag.


Forward is just fine, it moves the application pointer away from the 
hardware one. What to do with the data in the ring buffer is a different 
story though.
