Hi, This patchset adds support for whole available isochronous streams to ALSA dice driver. As a result, for some models, additional PCM substreams are available via subdevice of ALSA PCM character device. In configuration space of alsa-lib, it's represented like 'hw:0,0,1'(card/device/subdevice). It's soon in the last week of this developing cycle, while I hope to finish my work for ALSA dice driver by this patchset. Unfortunately, this patchset adds huge changes and includes possibilities of regression. I'm happy to receive your reports to test with any of your Dice units. For testers, I push whole patches to 'dice-several-streams' branch in my private repository. The changed driver is available from this branch. I recommend to use DKMS to maintain the driver, instead of installing by your own. https://github.com/takaswie/snd-firewire-improve/tree/dice-several-streams To check whether your units support several isochronous streams, please read output from /proc/asound/cardX/dice. When seeing 'tx1' (input) or 'rx1' (output), the additional subdevices are available. For example, $ arecord -l ... card 1: Pro26000f5a [Pro26-000f5a], device 0: DICE [Pro26-000f5a] Subdevices: 2/2 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 Subdevice #1: subdevice #1 In above case, you can use two subdevices for PCM capture, thus: * arecord -D plughw:1,0,0 file1.wav * arecord -D plughw:1,0,1 file2.wav In the middle of next week, I plan to post this patchset again for merging. So it's nice to test till then.
