Hi, In ALSA timer interface, I found another compatibility bug to different ABIs. This patch is to fix it. I note that the bug is in really, really-minor functionality and no drivers use it, therefore it has little impact to this subsystem. This patch is just for manners between kernel/userspace interfaces. To check the compatibility, I wrote a series of easy and small programs for each ALSA interface. It's available in my repository on github. https://github.com/takaswie/alsa-ioctl-test As long as I tested with these programs, this patch is the last fix for the compatibility issues which comes from differences of data model. On the other hand, I confirmed that each compatibility layer is not fully compatible to core implementation. For example, ioctl() with SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_WRITEI_FRAMES and argument filled by zero for PCM capture character device (not for playback device) returns different error codes for each of x86/x86_64 binary. I think this should be fixed, but don't start to work for it yet.
