[PATCH v2 1/2] ALSA: au88x0: added reference of vortex_t

[PATCH v2 1/2] ALSA: au88x0: added reference of vortex_t

[Sudip Mukherjee]

added a pointer of the vortex in the following functions :

vortex_alsafmt_aspfmt
vortex_Vort3D_InitializeSource
a3dsrc_ZeroStateA3D

so that we can have a reference of the vortex in the function.
this reference of the vortex will actually be used in a later patch
to convert the pr_* macro to dev_*.

[PATCH v2 2/2] ALSA: au88x0: pr_* replaced with dev_*

[Sudip Mukherjee]

pr_* macros replaced with dev_* as they are more preffered over pr_*.
each file which had pr_* was reviewed manually and replaced with dev_*.
here we have actually used the reference of the vortex which was added
to some functions in the previous patch of this series.

The prefix of the CARD_NAME and prefix of "vortex:" was also
removed as the dev_* will print the device name.

change from v1: removed CARD_NAME and "vortex:"

in the probe function there is a email address : openvortex-dev@nongnu.org
is it still working ? the archieve shows the last message was in 2006.

Is it possible to add linefeed  since "done/n" won't appear in the same
line with init nor shutdown?

should we add linefeed ?
as of now it will print init.... then it will print done as the init is complete.
so dmesg will show us:

init....done.

same for shutdown.
but if we give linefeed , then it will become : 

init....
done.

the meaning will be lost. and many user might just wonder what is done ?

It's actually on 2 lines before your patch.

	pr_info("a");
	pr_info("b\n");

already emits 2 separate lines.

	pr_info("a");
	pr_cont("b\n");

emits a single line "ab"
(unless some other thread emits something in-between)

pr_cont or a bare printk can be used after a dev_info
without a newline to avoid unwanted newlines.

It's actually on 2 lines before your patch.

	pr_info("a");
	pr_info("b\n");

already emits 2 separate lines.

	pr_info("a");
	pr_cont("b\n");

emits a single line "ab"
(unless some other thread emits something in-between)

pr_cont or a bare printk can be used after a dev_info
without a newline to avoid unwanted newlines.

i think i was not thinking while writing the previous mail.
pr_info("a");
pr_info("b\n");
should print as "ab" , considering no other threads prints in between.
but after converting it to dev_info it will become :
"dev: adev: b".
and for our "init.... done" , it will become 
"au88x0: init.... au88x0: done."  ( i have ommited the driver name)

can't we do some thing like :
dev_info(vortex->card->dev, "init.... started\n");
dev_info(vortex->card->dev, "init....done\n");
then even if some other thread prints , then we will not loose the reference.

It seems you were thinking then and now,
but unfortunately, you are assuming a bit
more than you have actual experience or
knowledge of printk inner workings.
 
> pr_info("a");
> pr_info("b\n");
> should print as "ab" ,
 
This is not true.

All pr_<level> uses but pr_cont always
start on a new line by emitting a newline
if the last line did not have one.

The difference between using:

pr_info("a")
pr_info("b\n")

and

pr_info("a\n")
pr_info("b\n")

is not emitted line count.

The first may unintentionally be continued
by another thread using a printk that does
not start with a KERN_<LEVEL>.

printk has had this behavior for ~5 years
since these 2 commits:

commit e28d713704117bca0820c732210df6075b09f13b
Author: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
Date:   Tue Jun 16 11:02:28 2009 -0700

    printk: Add KERN_DEFAULT printk log-level
    
    This adds a KERN_DEFAULT loglevel marker, for when you cannot decide
    which loglevel you want, and just want to keep an existing printk
    with the default loglevel.
    
    The difference between having KERN_DEFAULT and having no log-level
    marker at all is two-fold:
    
     - having the log-level marker will now force a new-line if the
       previous printout had not added one (perhaps because it forgot,
       but perhaps because it expected a continuation)
    
     - having a log-level marker is required if you are printing out a
       message that otherwise itself could perhaps otherwise be mistaken
       for a log-level.
    
and

commit 5fd29d6ccbc98884569d6f3105aeca70858b3e0f
Author: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
Date:   Tue Jun 16 10:57:02 2009 -0700

    printk: clean up handling of log-levels and newlines
    
    It used to be that we would only look at the log-level in a printk()
    after explicit newlines, which can cause annoying problems when the
    previous printk() did not end with a '\n'. In that case, the log-level
    marker would be just printed out in the middle of the line, and be
    seen as just noise rather than change the logging level.
    
    This changes things to always look at the log-level in the first
    bytes of the printout. If a log level marker is found, it is always
    used as the log-level. Additionally, if no newline existed, one is
    added (unless the log-level is the explicit KERN_CONT marker, to
    explicitly show that it's a continuation of a previous line).

oops... i have never tried with pr_* without a \n. I was thinking it will
work like printf. sorry for the noise i created.
and thanks for the information about those 2 commits.
so, now in this case what will you suggest - shutdown and done both
terminated by \n or some thing like : "shutdown process started" and then
"shutdown done"....

thanks

I think it doesn't matter one way or another as
it's only useful when there's a hang in the init
or shutdown.

It is better though to have complete messages
terminated with newlines so that it is not possible
for other threads to confusingly interleave output.

oops... i have never tried with pr_* without a \n. I was thinking it will
work like printf. sorry for the noise i created.
and thanks for the information about those 2 commits.
so, now in this case what will you suggest - shutdown and done both
terminated by \n or some thing like : "shutdown process started" and then
"shutdown done"....

thanks

Do the driver still need two dev_info at startup and shutdown since most
pci drivers won't print anything to system log when the driver is loaded or
unloaded ?

The only case when the driver is not loaded without any error message when
user specify snd-au8830 index=0 but the other sound card (e.g.
snd-usb-audio already loaded as card 0)

Definitely not needed, but the intention of this patch is to convert
to dev_*().  There are some cleanups, but it's for removing redundant
strings, so it's a bit different from changing the log level of the
original code.  You can submit an additional patch to adjust the log
levels more appropriately.

sure , I will submit a separate patch for cleaning up these extra dev_info.
