I'm new to ALSA driver development, and I'm writing an SOC driver for new hardware. Can someone explain to me what the snd_pcm_ops structure is for? And it sounds like a stupid question, but after studying documentation and sample code, I'm still confused. First off, I thought PCM stood for Pulse Code Modulation, but that just describes the format of the digital data. I don't understand what a PCM operation could be. I've seen documentation where PCM is considered an alternative to I2S or AC97. But if you look at eti_b1_wm8731.c, you'll see this: #include "at91-pcm.h" #include "at91-i2s.h" So is the AT91 a PCM device or an I2S device??? Some background: I'm writing driver for a new SOC that has an I2S interface, and it's talking to a CS4270 codec, but the CS4270 codec is wired up in "stand-alone" mode, so there's no software configuration. -- Timur Tabi Linux Kernel Developer @ Freescale _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
