At Linux v3.5, packet processing can be done in process context of ALSA PCM application as well as software IRQ context for OHCI 1394. Below is an example of the callgraph (some calls are omitted). ioctl(2) with e.g. HWSYNC (sound/core/pcm_native.c) ->snd_pcm_common_ioctl1() ->snd_pcm_hwsync() ->snd_pcm_stream_lock_irq (sound/core/pcm_lib.c) ->snd_pcm_update_hw_ptr() ->snd_pcm_udpate_hw_ptr0() ->struct snd_pcm_ops.pointer() (sound/firewire/*) = Each handler on drivers in ALSA firewire stack (sound/firewire/amdtp-stream.c) ->amdtp_stream_pcm_pointer() (drivers/firewire/core-iso.c) ->fw_iso_context_flush_completions() ->struct fw_card_driver.flush_iso_completion() (drivers/firewire/ohci.c) = flush_iso_completions() ->struct fw_iso_context.callback.sc (sound/firewire/amdtp-stream.c) = in_stream_callback() or out_stream_callback() ->... ->snd_pcm_stream_unlock_irq When packet queueing error occurs or detecting invalid packets in 'in_stream_callback()' or 'out_stream_callback()', 'snd_pcm_stop_xrun()' is called on local CPU with disabled IRQ. (sound/firewire/amdtp-stream.c) in_stream_callback() or out_stream_callback() ->amdtp_stream_pcm_abort() ->snd_pcm_stop_xrun() ->snd_pcm_stream_lock_irqsave() ->snd_pcm_stop() ->snd_pcm_stream_unlock_irqrestore() The process is stalled on the CPU due to attempt to acquire recursive lock.

In this case, PCM substream should be aborted in packet handler. On the other hand, it should not be done in any process context. TO distinguish these two context, use 'in_interrupt()' macro. 2. Any error is detect in process context of ALSA PCM application. In this case, PCM substream should not be aborted in packet handler because PCM substream lock is acquired. The task to abort PCM substream should be done in ALSA PCM core. For this purpose, SNDRV_PCM_POS_XRUN is returned at 'struct snd_pcm_ops.pointer()'.
