We have currently two global locks, a rwlock and a rwsem, that are
used for managing linking the PCM streams. Due to these global locks,
once when a linked stream is used, the lock granularity suffers a
lot.
This patch attempts to eliminate the former global lock for atomic
ops. The latter rwsem needs remaining because of the loosy way of the
loop calls in snd_pcm_action_nonatomic(), as well as for avoiding the
deadlock at linking. However, these are used far rarely, actually
only by two actions (prepare and reset), where both are no timing
critical ones. So this can be still seen as a good improvement.
The basic strategy to eliminate the rwlock is to assure group->lock at
adding or removing a stream to / from the group. Since we already
takes the group lock whenever taking the all substream locks under the
group, this shouldn't be a big problem. The reference to group
pointer in snd_pcm_substream object is protected by the stream lock
itself.
However, there are still pitfalls: a race window at re-locking and the
lifecycle of group object. The former is a small race window for
dereferencing the substream group object opened while snd_pcm_action()
performs re-locking to avoid ABBA deadlocks. This includes the unlink
of group during that window, too. And the latter is the kfree
performed after all streams are removed from the group while it's
still dereferenced.
For addressing these corner cases, two new tricks are introduced:
- After re-locking, the group assigned to the stream is checked again;
if the group is changed, we retry the whole procedure.
- Introduce a refcount to snd_pcm_group object, so that it's freed
only when it's empty and really no one refers to it.
(Some readers might wonder why not RCU for the latter. RCU in this
case would cost more than refcounting, unfortunately. We take the
group lock sooner or later, hence the performance improvement by RCU
would be negligible. Meanwhile, because we need to deal with
schedulable context depending on the pcm->nonatomic flag, it'll become
dynamic RCU/SRCU switch, and the grace period may become too long.)
Along with these changes, there are a significant amount of code
refactoring. The complex group re-lock & ref code is factored out to
snd_pcm_stream_group_ref() function, for example.

Until now we rely on each driver calling snd_pcm_suspend*() explicitly
at its own PM handling. However, this can be done far more easily by
setting the PM ops to each actual snd_pcm device object.
This patch adds the device_type object for PCM stream and assigns to
each PCM stream object. The type contains only the PM ops for system
suspend; we don't need to deal with the resume in general.
The suspend hook simply calls snd_pcm_suspend_all() for the given PCM
streams. This implies that the PM order is correctly put, i.e. PCM is
suspended before the main (or codec) driver, which should be true in
general. If a special ordering is needed, you'd need to adjust the
device PM order manually later.
This patch introduces a new flag, snd_pcm.no_device_suspend, too.
With this flag set, the PCM device object won't invoke
snd_pcm_suspend_all() by itself. This is needed for ASoC who wants to
manage the PM call orders in its serialized way, and the flag is set
in soc_new_pcm() as default.
For the non-ASoC world, we can get rid of the manual snd_pcm_suspend
calls. This will be done in the later patches.

We have an ioctl to inform the PCM protocol version the running kernel
supports, but there is no way to know which protocol version the
user-space can understand. This lack of information caused headaches
in the past when we tried to extend the ABI. For example, because we
couldn't guarantee the validity of the reserved bytes, we had to
introduce a new ioctl SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_STATUS_EXT for assigning a few
new fields in the formerly reserved bits. If we could know that it's
a new alsa-lib, we could assume the availability of the new fields,
thus we could have reused the existing SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_STATUS.
In order to improve the ABI extensibility, this patch adds a new ioctl
for user-space to inform its supporting protocol version to the
kernel. By reporting the supported protocol from user-space, the
kernel can judge which feature should be provided and which not.
With the addition of the new ioctl, the PCM protocol version is bumped
to 2.0.14, too. User-space checks the kernel protocol version via
SNDRV_PCM_INFO_PVERSION, then it sets the supported version back via
SNDRV_PCM_INFO_USER_PVERSION.

For supporting the explicit in-kernel copy of PCM buffer data, and
also for further code refactoring, three new PCM ops, copy_user,
copy_kernel and fill_silence, are introduced. The old copy and
silence ops will be deprecated and removed later once when all callers
are converted.
The copy_kernel ops is the new one, and it's supposed to transfer the
PCM data from the given kernel buffer to the hardware ring-buffer (or
vice-versa depending on the stream direction), while the copy_user ops
is equivalent with the former copy ops, to transfer the data from the
user-space buffer.
The major difference of the new copy_* and fill_silence ops from the
previous ops is that the new ops take bytes instead of frames for size
and position arguments. It has two merits: first, it allows the
callback implementation often simpler (just call directly memcpy() &
co), and second, it may unify the implementations of both interleaved
and non-interleaved cases, as we'll see in the later patch.
As of this stage, copy_kernel ops isn't referred yet, but only
copy_user is used.

The recommended and most efficient way to constraint a configuration
parameter to a single value is to set the minimum and maximum allowed
values to the same value, i.e. calling snd_pcm_hw_constraint_minmax() with
the same value for min and max.
It is not necessarily obvious though that this is the approach that should
be taken and some drivers have come up with other ways of solving this
problem, e.g. installing a list constraint with a single item. List
constraints are dynamic constraints though and hence less efficient than
the static min-max constraint.
This patch introduces a new helper function called
snd_pcm_hw_constraint_single() which only takes a single value has the same
effect as calling snd_pcm_hw_constraint_minmax() with the same values for
min and max. But it is hopefully semantically more expressive, making it
clear that this is the preferred way of setting a single value constraint.

Like previous patches, at this time we embed the struct device into
PCM object. However, this needs a bit more caution: struct snd_pcm
doesn't own one device but two, for both playback and capture! Thus
not struct snd_pcm but struct snd_pcm_str object contains the device.
Along with this change, pcm->dev field is dropped for avoiding
confusion. It was meant to point to a non-standard parent. But,
since now we can touch each struct device directly, we can manipulate
the parent field easily there, too.
