But in non-blocking mode, it is never possible to write more than the buffer size immediately. So if you try with more frames, the function will write as much as it can, and you have to retry with the remaining frames later anyway. > 2.) What are the actual functions to get the interrupt and send the > frames needed into the ringbuffer (standard I/O or select)? The snd_pcm_writei() call sends the frames to the buffer. The notification that the device is ready (i.e., that there is enough free space in the buffer to write more samples) comes through any of the file-handle-waiting functions (select, poll, epoll).
