You cast the const void into const int16_t buffer. Is this really needed? Where is our input and output buffer coming from? Aren’t these aligned anyway? Meaning aren’t they allocated? > > We have this buffer from AudioFlinger so we don't actually know > alignment or if this is pointer to beginning of some internal buffer > (it's most probably both, but I don't think we should assume this). and audio system that does not give you a guarantee here on the alignment is utterly screwed up. Seriously, that is just bad for performance. Especially bad on ARM CPUs, so I doubt that they have not thought about this.
