For gapless playback its possible that each track can have different
codec profile with same decoder, for example we have WMA album,
we may have different tracks as WMA v9, WMA v10 and so on

Existing code does not allow to change this profile while doing gapless
playback.

This patch adds new SNDRV_COMPRESS_SET_CODEC_PARAMS IOCTL to allow
userspace to set this new parameters required for new codec profile.

Thanks, this looks good and in line with discussions done in Audio uConf

Can we split the ALSA changes and ASoC changes to different patches
please?

Also please post driver support for this API..

Lastly, documentation needs update about this call

This should be optional as gapless is optional

I think we should bump the compress version too for checking in userland
about this support

maybe use a compress_ops pointer to make this look and read better :)

Yes, q6dsp gapless patches are the users for this api, I will include
them in next version.

I will fix these in next version!

That does not seem fully correct to me. WMA profiles are actually 
different encoding schemes - specifically the WMA 10 LBR.

The premise for gapless playback was that the same codec and profile be 
used between tracks, so that the same internal delay was used. If you 
look at the output data, it's made of zeroes for N samples, and then you 
see decoded data. When you change tracks, the first N samples actually 
come from the previous track.

If you change coding schemes between tracks, you cannot call this 
gapless playback. You will both remove the last N samples of the 
previous track and insert M zeroes (for the new decoder).

If you wanted to support such a mode, you would need to provide an 
indication of the delay difference, e.g. by looking at the ID3 tags and 
let firmware realign. Unfortunately, you don't send this information 
with the new IOCTL? You would also need firmware tricks for the first 
decoder to flush out its output and the new decoder to realign.

I also don't see how one might end-up with different profiles for an 
album in the first place. The gapless use came mostly from ripping live 
music recorded on audio CDs in different tracks, and it would have taken 
a twisted mind to select different encodings between tracks.

If the 'album' is really a playlist, then the gapless playback as 
supported by the ASoC compressed layer is nearly useless. What you would 
really want is cross-fade but that's a different use case and 
implementation that would be needed.

Patrick seems to have discussed this topic in detail at one of the audio 
conf!

He might want to add more to this discussion.

One more counter-argument I thought of after sending my response. If the 
samples for the previous track and the next track are not generated by 
the *same* filterbank, then you would lose the implicit averaging 
between tracks performed by the filterbank (usually an inverse MDCT), 
which will likely result in sample discontinuities and pop noise on 
transitions. If we have different filterbanks we should really look into 
explicit cross-fading which is a much larger change than what this patch 
suggests.
