[PATCH v4 0/3] ALSA: compress_offload: Add 64-bit safe timestamp API
Posted by Joris Verhaegen 2 months ago
The current compress offload timestamping API relies on struct
snd_compr_tstamp, whose cumulative counters like copied_total are
defined as __u32. On long-running high-resolution audio streams, these
32-bit counters can overflow, causing incorrect availability
calculations.

This patch series transitions to a 64-bit safe API to solve the problem
while maintaining perfect backward compatibility with the existing UAPI.
The pointer operation is reworked to use a new timestamp struct with
64-bit fields for the cumulative counters, named snd_compr_tstamp64.
ASoC drivers are updated to use the 64-bit structures. Corresponding
ioctls are added to expose them to user-space.

The series is structured as follows:

Patch 1: Updates the pointer op, refactors the core logic and ASoC
drivers to use it, and defines the new UAPI structs.

Patch 2: Exposes the SNDRV_COMPRESS_TSTAMP64 ioctl.

Patch 3: Exposes the corresponding SNDRV_COMPRESS_AVAIL64 ioctl.

This series has been tested on a Pixel 9 device. All compress offload
use cases, including long-running playback, were verified to work
correctly with the new 64-bit API.

Thanks,
Joris (George) Verhaegen

Changes in v2:
  - Corrected author and Signed-off-by to be consistent (Mark Brown).
Changes in v3:
  - Rework pointer op to return 64-bit timestamp, rather than adding a
    parallel pointer64 op (Charles Keepax, Takashi Iwai, Vinod Koul)
  - Bump the protocol version for ABI change (Takashi Iwai)
  -Fix linker error on Intel Atom (lkp@intel.com)
  -Rebase on latest for-next sound tree (Takashi Iwai)
  -Avoid changing return error code for ioctl (internal)
  -ASoC: Replace u64 % u32 by do_div(u64, u32) (internal)
  -ASoC: sprd: change current_data_offset to u64 (internal)
Changes in v4:
  -Fix compiler error on Intel AVS (lkp@intel.com)

Joris Verhaegen (3):
  ALSA: compress_offload: Add 64-bit safe timestamp infrastructure
  ALSA: compress_offload: Add SNDRV_COMPRESS_TSTAMP64 ioctl
  ALSA: compress_offload: Add SNDRV_COMPRESS_AVAIL64 ioctl
