[PATCH RESEND] ALSA: doc: Fix PCM interface section typos

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Fix two mistakes in the PCM interface section:
1/ Members of the snd_pcm_hardware structure are channels_{min,max}
   and not channel_{min,max} (mind the 's').
2/ Another sentence is incomplete as the reference to one structure
   member (period_bytes_max) is missing.

There is no relevant 'Fixes:' tag to apply as both typos predate the
Git era.

Hello, I wrote and sent this patch in 2019 but I likely only Cc'd Jon
and the doc ML, which might have not been enough, so just in case, here
is a resend.
