Thank you all for sorting this out. It seems like we are moving in a really
good direction.

The full one is would also be used by the HAL for querying the DSP position.

anon_inode:snd-pcm-buffer)

That would be helpful.

I have attached a revised requirements doc. The original doc was more of a
HowTo for OEMs to create the "anon_inode:dmabuf" FD.. This clarifies the
requirements and allows for the use of "anon_inode:snd-pcm*". It should
match what we have arrived at by discussion. Let me know if it makes sense.

Thanks,
Phil Burk
