ALSA release 1.0.1

ALSA release 1.0.1

[Jaroslav Kysela]

Hello all,

	this is our first final ALSA release with number 1.0.1. As you all 
expected, there are only minor fixes against 1.0.0rc2.

	The 1.0 code is a direct successor of the 0.9 code which firstly
introduced the completely reworked APIs since 0.5 version. Our focus is
to offer a hardware abstraction layer for all kinds of hardware including
proffesional equipment.

	I would like to say a strong THANK YOU to all people who
contributed to this project. Namely: Abramo Bagnara, Takashi Iwai, Paul 
Davis, Clemens Ladisch, Massimo Piccioni and all others.

Changes since 1.0.0rc2:

* alsa-driver
  - added --with-redhat switch to force RedHat kernel detection
  - fixed system timer behaviour
  - OSS PCM emulation
    - added OSS_ALSAEMULVER ioctl to identify ALSA driver
    - changed whole-frag (default again) => partial-frag
    - small corrections in snd_pcm_oss_get_ptr()
  - USB audio fix
  - RME9652 - fixed driver load
  - GUS - fixed race - scheduling in interrupt
* alsa-lib
  - added ipc_perm option for direct plugins (dsnoop, dmix, dshare)
  - fixed range settings for simple mixer
  - added asym plugin
  - alisp work (not too much important at the moment)

No, sorry. This is beyond of my hands. I will send update patches to 
Andrew Morton and Linus ASAP, but the inclusion is in their hands.

Is there a BK tree anywhere for ALSA?  It would simplify manual
upgrades a bit.

Yes: http://linux-sound.bkbits.net/linux-sound
The 1.0.1 code is in.

Perfect.  It's working with Linux 2.6.1-rc3 and a sis7012.

linux-2.6.0/sound/usb/usbaudio.h defines these, but
alsa-driver-1.0.1/alsa-kernel/usb/usbaudio.h does not.  Copying in the
kernel header fixed it.

I'm still getting "snd_pcm_plug_hw_params: Assertion `err >= 0' failed."
from a couple weeks ago.  I can work around it, but I'm also working
around other things (such as that CS46xx chip that doesn't work with
4k or 8k buffers), and the result starts to be brittle ...

Use 2.6.0-rc or 2.6.1 kernels.
