Other than this, the playback position +(what SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_DELAY will return) is not updated at all. +Userspace will see jitter up to 10ms in the audio position. + +Make this a bit nicer for userspace by interpolating the +position using the CPU clock. + +I'm not sure if setting snd_pcm_runtime.delay is the right +approach for this. Or if there is maybe an already existing +mechanism for position interpolation in the ALSA core. + +I only set SNDRV_PCM_INFO_BATCH because this appears to remove +at least one situation snd_pcm_runtime.delay is used, so I have +to worry less in which place I have to update this field, or +how it interacts with the rest of ALSA. + +In the future, it might be nice to use VC_AUDIO_MSG_TYPE_LATENCY. +One problem is that it requires sending a videocore message, and +waiting for a reply, which could make the implementation much +harder due to locking and synchronization requirements. +--- + sound/arm/bcm2835-pcm.c | 12 +++++++++++- + sound/arm/bcm2835.h | 1 + + 2 files changed, 12 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) + +--- a/sound/arm/bcm2835-pcm.c ++++ b/sound/arm/bcm2835-pcm.c +@@ -25,7 +25,7 @@ + /* hardware definition */ + static struct snd_pcm_hardware snd_bcm2835_playback_hw = { + .info = (SNDRV_PCM_INFO_INTERLEAVED | SNDRV_PCM_INFO_BLOCK_TRANSFER | +- SNDRV_PCM_INFO_MMAP | SNDRV_PCM_INFO_MMAP_VALID), ++ SNDRV_PCM_INFO_MMAP | SNDRV_PCM_INFO_MMAP_VALID | SNDRV_PCM_INFO_BATCH), + .formats = SNDRV_PCM_FMTBIT_U8 | SNDRV_PCM_FMTBIT_S16_LE, + .rates = SNDRV_PCM_RATE_CONTINUOUS | SNDRV_PCM_RATE_8000_48000, + .rate_min = 8000, +@@ -99,6 +99,8 @@ static irqreturn_t bcm2835_playback_fifo + alsa_stream->pos %= alsa_stream->buffer_size; + } + ++ alsa_stream->interpolate_start = ktime_get_ns(); ++ + if (alsa_stream->substream) { + if (new_period) + snd_pcm_period_elapsed(alsa_stream->substream); +@@ -399,6 +401,7 @@ static int snd_bcm2835_pcm_prepare(struc + alsa_stream->buffer_size = snd_pcm_lib_buffer_bytes(substream); + alsa_stream->period_size = snd_pcm_lib_period_bytes(substream); + alsa_stream->pos = 0; ++ alsa_stream->interpolate_start = ktime_get_ns(); + + audio_debug("buffer_size=%d, period_size=%d pos=%d frame_bits=%d\n", + alsa_stream->buffer_size, alsa_stream->period_size, +@@ -495,6 +498,7 @@ snd_bcm2835_pcm_pointer(struct snd_pcm_s + { + struct snd_pcm_runtime *runtime = substream->runtime; + bcm2835_alsa_stream_t *alsa_stream = runtime->private_data; ++ u64 now = ktime_get_ns(); + + audio_info(" ..
