[RFC][PATCH] ALSA: firewire-lib: support Linux tracing to dump a part of packet data

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

 



When audio and music units have some quirks in their sequence of packet,
it's really hard for non-owners to identify the quirks. To handle the
quirks, developers need a dump for sequence of packets at least, however
it's difficult to users who have no knowledge and equipment for this
purpose.

This commit adds tracepoints for this situation. When users encounter
the issue, they can dump a part of packet data via Linux tracing framework
as long as using drivers in ALSA firewire stack.

This commit adds 'snd-firewire-lib' subsystem with 'in_packet' and
'out_packet' events. In the events, the content of CIP headers, the number
of included quadlets and the index of packet managed by this module are
recorded per packet.

This is a sample:

$ trace-cmd record -e snd_firewire_lib:out_packet -e snd_firewire_lib:in_packet
/sys/kernel/tracing/events/snd_firewire_lib/out_packet/filter
/sys/kernel/tracing/events/snd_firewire_lib/in_packet/filter
Hit Ctrl^C to stop recording
^C
$ trace-cmd report trace.dat
...
<idle>-0  [002] 40398.221702: out_packet: 00070008 9001427a: 058: 31
<idle>-0  [002] 40398.221703: in_packet:  01020010 9001ffff: 002: 15
<idle>-0  [002] 40398.221703: out_packet: 00070010 9001ffff: 002: 32
<idle>-0  [002] 40398.223679: in_packet:  010b0010 900157e4: 090: 16
<idle>-0  [002] 40398.223681: out_packet: 00070010 900157e4: 058: 33
<idle>-0  [002] 40398.223681: in_packet:  010b0018 9001714f: 090: 17
...

One line represent one packet. The legend for the last four fields is:
 - The first quadlet of CIP header
 - The second quadlet of CIP header
 - The number of included quadlets
 - The index of packet inner buffer maintained by this module

Currently, when detecting packet discontinuity, this module stops packet
streaming. This is reasonable to packet streaming implementation. However,
to identify the quirks, packet streaming should continue to dump enough
sequence of packet. This commit adds a condition statement and a marker
for this purpose.
