This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled ALSA: emu10k1: make E-MU FPGA writes potentially more reliable to the 6.6-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: alsa-emu10k1-make-e-mu-fpga-writes-potentially-more-.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.6 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 4bf983d5ac7c3fd8ac18932290f120e2f0012cd8 Author: Oswald Buddenhagen <oswald.buddenhagen@xxxxxx> Date: Sun Apr 28 11:37:16 2024 +0200 ALSA: emu10k1: make E-MU FPGA writes potentially more reliable [ Upstream commit 15c7e87aa88f0ab2d51c2e2123b127a6d693ca21 ] We did not delay after the second strobe signal, so another immediately following access could potentially corrupt the written value. This is a purely speculative fix with no supporting evidence, but after taking out the spinlocks around the writes, it seems plausible that a modern processor could be actually too fast. Also, it's just cleaner to be consistent.
