Summary:                    surround40 memory leak
Description: 
It seems that surround40 has a memory leak or somthing similar, playing a
game in surround40 mode the game result unplayable after some minutes. 
And there is a problem in CS46xx.conf file, i need to remove the hook on
the rear pcm to permit multiple surround40 subdevices to be opened.

I am just a reporter and do not have any cs46xx card too.

Whether cs46xx support multiple instances of multi-channels seem depend on
DSP firmware 

Can you run multiple instances of surround40 and surround51 concurrently
(speaker-test or 5.1 movie) by removing the lock in CS46xx.conf


I want to find out a feasible solution (period_size, period and
buffer_size calculation by snd_pcm_set_params() ) for my au8830 sound card
in https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=1724 by comparing
au8830 (device 0 support 1, 2, 4 channels) with
cs46xx (multi pluginn of device front, rear and center_lfe).

Can you try alsa-lib example (i.e. alsa-lib/test/pcm_min.c) ? 

I upload set_params_test.c in
https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=1724 which test different
devices (hw:0,
front, surround40, surround51) with  1, 2, 4, 6 channels, rates(8000,
44100, 48000) , formats U8/S16_LE in snd_pcm_set_params() and print out
the values of period_size and buffer_size returned by
snd_pcm_get_params()

BTW, you forget to call snd_pcm_info(pcm, obj) in your program

Well the problem is difficult to resolve. For hooks read better the
description of the bug.
Anyway i talked to Benny Sjostrand about these problems and he explained
me a bit the logic of this dsp, and how this driver was made: throght
reverse engineering! 
The only thing i've found is this: in file dsp_spos.c replace
"REAR_CODECOUT_SCB_ADDR,codec_in_scb" with
"REAR_CODECOUT_SCB_ADDR,codec_out_scb" at about line 1364. With this
"patch" you should be able to use the quad pcm (route device) without the
out of sync problem. Anyway the problem isn't solved! It maybe a delay in
some SCB or it may be an application problem caused by the cut of
available devices that is halved. Btw without documentation is not
possible to work on it.
