Hi, ALSA sequencer core has two types of clients; application and kernel. For kernel clients, the core should handle data in kernel space, meanwhile this is achieved with a hack of change of address limit. This should be purged. This patchset is a revised version of my previous one: obsolete change of address limit http://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2016-August/110937.html Changes in v2: - Use '_IOC_SIZE' macro to calculate the size of argument of ioctl command. - Keep redundant longer name. - Improve comments. - Merge some patches relevant to the same features. Changes in v3: - Improve series of patch - Use 'dir' field of ioctl command to detect the length of argument Regards Takashi Sakamoto (4): ALSA: seq: add documentation for snd_seq_kernel_client_ctl ALSA: seq: add an alternative way to handle ioctl requests ALSA: seq: change ioctl command operation to get data in kernel space ALSA: seq: obsolete change of address limit sound/core/seq/seq_clientmgr.c | 721 ++++++++++++++++++----------------------- sound/core/seq/seq_compat.c | 7 +- 2 files changed, 317 insertions(+), 411 deletions(-) -- 2.7.4 _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
