[PATCH 00/29] staging: bcm2835-audio: Cleanups and fixes

[Takashi Iwai]

Hi,

since I had an opportunity to play with RPi3B+ recently, I took a look
at the existing bcm2835-audio driver code and was amused very much :)

So here is the result, a cleanup and fix patch series.

Most of the patches are trivial cleanups, just brushing up, removing
many redundant and buggy codes, as well as code simplifications.

A big functional change is that now it uses non-atomic PCM ops, so
that we can kill the ugly workqueue usages.  Also, the resource
management was simplified.

As a result, we can get rid of ca 1000 lines.  Not too bad.

[PATCH 01/29] staging: bcm2835-audio: Clean up mutex locks

[Takashi Iwai]

snd-bcm2835 driver takes the lock with mutex_lock_interruptible() in
all places, which don't make sense.  Replace them with the simple
mutex_lock().

Also taking a mutex lock right after creating it for each PCM object
is nonsense, too.  It cannot be racy at that point.  We can get rid of
it.

Last but not least, initializing chip->audio_mutex at each place is
error-prone.  Initialize properly at creating the chip object in
snd_bcm2835_create() instead.

[PATCH 02/29] staging: bcm2835-audio: Remove redundant spdif stream ctls

[Takashi Iwai]

The "IEC958 Playback Stream" control does basically the very same
thing as "IEC958 Playback Default" redundantly.  The former should
have been stream-specific and restored after closing the stream, but
we don't do in that way.

Since it's nothing but confusion, remove this fake.

I think this patch and patch #23 could be merge in case a new series is required.

The avail_substreams bit mask is checked for the possible racy
accesses, but this cannot happen in practice; i.e. the assignment and
the check are superfluous.

Let's rip them off.

[PATCH 05/29] staging: bcm2835-audio: Fix mute controls, volume handling cleanup

[Takashi Iwai]

In the current code, the mute control is dealt in a special manner,
modifying the current volume and saving the old volume, etc.  This is
inconsistent (e.g. change the volume while muted, then unmute), and
way too complex.

Also, the whole volume handling code has conversion between ALSA
volume and raw volume values, which can lead to another
inconsistency and complexity.

This patch simplifies these points:
- The ALSA volume value is saved in chip->volume
- volume->mute saves the mute state
- The mute state is evaluated only when the actual volume is passed to
  the hardware, bcm2835_audio_set_ctls()

[PATCH 06/29] staging: bcm2835-audio: Remove redundant function calls

[Takashi Iwai]

bcm2835_audio_setup(), bcm2835_audio_flush_buffers() and
bcm2835_audio_flush_playback_buffers() functions do implement
nothing.

Also, bcm2835_audio_set_ctls() is already called inside
bcm2835_audio_set_params(), so the later call is superfluous.

This patch removes these superfluous implementations.

[PATCH 07/29] staging: bcm2835-audio: Remove superfluous open flag

[Takashi Iwai]

All the alsa_stream->open flag checks in the current code are
redundant, and they cannot be racy.  For the code simplification,
let's remove the flag and its check.

[PATCH 08/29] staging: bcm2835-audio: Drop useless running flag and check

[Takashi Iwai]

The running flag of alsa_stream is basically useless.  The running
state is strictly controlled in ALSA PCM core side, hence the check in
PCM trigger and close callbacks are superfluous.

Also, the prefill ack at trigger start became superfluous nowadays
with the ALSA PCM core update.

Let's rip them off.

[PATCH 09/29] staging: bcm2835-audio: Fix incorrect draining handling

[Takashi Iwai]

The handling of SNDRV_PCM_TRIGGER_STOP at the trigger callback is
incorrect: when the STOP is issued, the driver is supposed to drop the
stream immediately.  Meanwhile bcm2835 driver checks the DRAINING
state and tries to issue some different command.

This patch straightens things a bit, dropping the incorrect state
checks.  The draining behavior would be still not perfect at this
point, but will be improved in a later patch.

[PATCH 16/29] staging: bcm2835-audio: Drop superfluous mutex lock during prepare

[Takashi Iwai]

The chip->audio_mutex is used basically for protecting the opened

No, the patch #14 corrects the missing error path.  Without patch 14,
the error from prepare is ignored.  And this patch gets rid of the
superfluous mutex lock.

[PATCH 17/29] staging: bcm2835-audio: Add 10ms period constraint

[Takashi Iwai]

It seems that the resolution of vc04 callback is in 10 msec; i.e. the
minimal period size is also 10 msec.

This patch adds the corresponding hw constraint.

in the Foundation Kernel (Downstream) there is a patch to interpolate
the audio delay. So my questions is, does your patch above makes the
following patch obsolete?

[PATCH] bcm2835: interpolate audio delay

It appears the GPU only sends us a message all 10ms to update
the playback progress. 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.

Through a quick glance, no, my patch is orthogonal to this.

My patch adds a PCM hw constraint so that the period size won't go
below 10ms, while the downstream patch provides the additional delay
value that is calculated from the system clock.

That's OK, as long as the computation is accurate enough (at least not
exceed the actual position) and is light-weight.

Actually, this SNDRV_PCM_INFO_BATCH addition should be a separate
patch.  It has nothing to do with the runtime->delay calculation.
(And, this "one situation" is likely called PulseAudio :)

This can be now easy with my patch series.  By switching to non-atomic
operation, we can issue the vc04 command inside the pointer callback,
too.

thanks for your explanation. So your patch must be reverted with

I think we should try to implement this later.

@Mike: Do you want to write a patch series which upstream "interpolate
audio delay" and addresses Takashi's comments?

I would help you, in case you have questions about setup a Raspberry Pi
with Mainline kernel or patch submission.

No, no.
Both can be applied as is.  They have *nothing to do* with each
other.

Well, the question is who really wants this.  The value given by that
patch is nothing but some estimation and might be even incorrect.

PulseAudio won't need it any longer when you set the BATCH flag.
Then it'll switch from tsched mode to the old mode, and the delay
value would be almost irrelevant.

Re: [PATCH 17/29] staging: bcm2835-audio: Add 10ms period constraint [Resend in plain text...]

[Mike Brady]

Hi there. Apologies for the delay. The issue here is not the 10ms period constrain -- it’s the possible addition of code to interpolate the playback position between GPU-driven updates. The intention is to give userland a jitter-free view of the playback position.

Well, two answers. First, Shairport Sync (https://github.com/mikebrady/shairport-sync) needs it — whenever a packet of audio frames is about to be added to the output queue (at approximately 7.9 millisecond intervals), the delay is checked to try to maintain sync to within a few milliseconds. The BCM2835 audio device is the only one I have yet come across with so much jitter. Whatever other drivers do, the delay they report doesn’t suffer from anything like this level of jitter.

The second answer is that the veracity of the ALSA documentation depends on it — any application using the ALSA system for synchronisation will rely on this being an accurate reflection of the situation. AFAIK there is really no workaround it if the application is confined to “safe” ALSA (http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/guide-to-sound-apis).

The overhead is small -- an extra ktime_get() every time a GPU message
is sent -- and another call and a few calculations whenever the delay
is sought from userland.

At 48,000 frames per second, i.e. approximately 20 microseconds per frame, it would take a clock inaccuracy of roughly
20 microseconds in 10 milliseconds -- 2,000 parts per million — to result in an inaccurate estimate.
Crystal or resonator-based clocks typically have an inaccuracy of 10s to 100s of parts per million.

Finally, to see the effect of the absence and presence of this interpolation, please have a look at this: https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/issues/1026#issuecomment-415746016, where a downstream version of this fix was being discussed.

OK, if there is another application using that delay value, it's worth
to consider providing a fine-grained value.

I'm not opposing to the usage of delay value.  The attribute is
provided exactly for such a purpose.  It's a good thing (tm).

The potential problem is, however, rather the implementation: it's
using a system timer for interpolation, which is known to drift from
the actual clocks.  Though, one may say that in such a use case, we
may ignore the drift since the interpolation is so narrow.

But another question is whether it should be implemented in each
driver level.  The time-stamping is basically a PCM core
functionality, and nothing specific to the hardware, especially when
it's referring to the system timer.

e.g. you can think in a different way, too: we may put a timestamp at
each hwptr update, and pass it as-is, instead of updating the
timestamp at each position query.  This will effectively gives the
accurate position-timestamp pair, and user-space may interpolate as it
likes, too.


In anyway, if *this* kind of feature needs to be merged, it's
definitely to be discussed with the upstream.  So, if you're going to
merge that sort of path, please keep Cc to alsa-devel ML.


thanks,

Takashi

Yes, that was my thought. I guess another thing in its favour is that this audio device will always
be in partnership with a processor as part of an SoC, so it will always be likely to have a reasonably
accurate clock.

That’s a fair point. I don’t know what is done in other drivers, but can only report that with one possible exception,
the DACs used with Shairport Sync by many end users report well-behaved delay figures, certainly to within two microseconds. I’m afraid I don’t know how they do it.

That’s not a bad idea, and I might take it up on the alsa-devel mailing list, as you suggest.

In the meantime, would you think that the balance of convenience lies with this interpolation scheme? (Finally, I have a patch ready….)

I find it's not too bad, at least as a starting point.
It doesn't break anything dramatically from the existing API POV.

We may brush up things (or extend the API) later, and may move it up
to the core code.  But, again, as a kick off, it's good to start with
a local minimal change.


thanks,

Takashi

[Mike Brady]

Hi Takashi. Just testing out the updated bcm2835 audio driver — it seems that it will underflow at somewhere above about 4410 and below 5120 frames, whereas the present driver is happy down to at least 2000 frames — I haven’t tried lower than about 1700.

Is this change meant to happen?

Hi Takashi. My apologies — t turns out I was wrong. My measurements were systematically wrong due to integer truncation going from 64 bit to 32 bit representation.

Apologies

That relieved me ;)  I thought of starting checking in the next week,
as nothing obvious came to my mind.

In anyways thank you for your testing!

[PATCH 18/29] staging: bcm2835-audio: Make single vchi handle

[Takashi Iwai]

The bcm2835_audio_instance object contains the array of
VCHI_SERVICE_HANDLE_T, while the code assumes and uses only the first
element explicitly.  Let's reduce to a single vchi handle for
simplifying the code.

[PATCH 19/29] staging: bcm2835-audio: Code refactoring of vchiq accessor codes

[Takashi Iwai]

This is a cleanup and code refactoring in bcm2835-vchiq.c.

The major code changes are to provide local helpers for easier use of
lock / unlock, and message passing with/without response wait.  This
allows us to reduce lots of open codes.

Also, the max packet is set at opening the stream, not at each time
when the write gets called.

[PATCH 20/29] staging: bcm2835-audio: Operate non-atomic PCM ops

[Takashi Iwai]

This is the most significant part in the patch series.

The bcm2835-audio driver used to queue the commands to vc04 core via
workqueue, but basically the whole accesses to vc04 core are done in
the sleepable context, including the callback calls.  In such a case,
rewriting the code using non-atomic PCM ops will simplify the logic a
lot.

This patch does it: all workqueue are gone and each former-work
implementation is now directly called from PCM ops like trigger and
write transfer.

Along with it, the DMA position updater, bcm2835_playback_fifo(), was
also rewritten to use a simpler logic.  Now it handles the XRUN and
draining properly by calling snd_pcm_stop() conditionally.

The current position is kept in atomic_t value so that it can be read
concurrently from the pointer callback.

Also, the bcm2835_audio_instance object is allocated at the beginning
of bcm2835_audio_open().  This makes the resource management clearer.

[PATCH 21/29] staging: bcm2835-audio: Use card->private_data

[Takashi Iwai]

Instead of allocating a separate snd_device object, let snd_card_new()
allocate the private resource.  This simplifies the code.

[PATCH 25/29] staging: bcm2835-audio: Use coherent device buffers

[Takashi Iwai]

The memory access to the pages allocated with
SNDRV_DMA_TYPE_CONTINUOUS are basically non-coherent, and it becomes a
problem when a process accesses via mmap.

For the more consistent access, use the device coherent memory, just
by replacing the call pattern in the allocator helpers.

The only point we need to be careful for is the device object passed
there; since bcm2835-audio driver creates fake devices and each card
is created on top of that, we need to pass its parent device as the
real device object.

[PATCH 26/29] staging: bcm2835-audio: Set SNDRV_PCM_INFO_SYNC_APPLPTR

[Takashi Iwai]

The recent ALSA PCM core supports the SNDRV_PCM_INFO_SYNC_APPLPTR flag
indicating that the driver needs the ack call at each appl_ptr
update.  This is requirement for the indirect PCM implementations like
bcm2835-audio driver, too.

[PATCH 29/29] staging: bcm2835-audio: Simplify card object management

[Takashi Iwai]

Instead of creating a dummy child device to manage the card object,
just use devm stuff directly for releasing with snd_card_free().
This results in a lot of code reduction.

Since the dummy child devices are gone, the device object to be passed
to the memory allocator needs to be adjusted as well.

first of all, thank you very much for this series.

Eric has no time as maintainer, so i will try to give you some feedback (beware of very little audio driver knowledge).

I functionally tested your patch series on a Raspberry Pi 1 B (bcm2835_defconfig), so this whole series is at least:

Tested-by: Stefan Wahren <stefan.wahren@i2se.com>

Unfortunately there is still an corruption issue with underlying vchiq and multi_v7_defconfig, so no wider tests.

I don't know if you tested this series on a Raspberry Pi. Maybe you have some specific scenarios, which should be tested.

As a reviewer i have some suggestions, but only trivia. I don't know if it's a problem that this series hasn't been send to devel@driverdev.osuosl.org

OK, thanks, I'll put to my series in case of resubmission.
Meanwhile I'll keep the series in topic/vc04 branch of sound.git
tree.

What is this corruption issue?

> I don't know if you tested this series on a Raspberry Pi. Maybe you have some specific scenarios, which should be tested.

I have only a RPi3B+, and that's all what I've tested.
It'd be great if the patch series could be tested in a wider range of
models, of course.

The patches are only about cleanups.  They corrected the bad usages of
audio APIs and its design, but basically I haven't touched the basic
functionality intentionally at all.  So the behavior should be kept as
before.

(Actually it'd be better to revisit the design later, especially about
the multi-cards option and the PCM route mixer control, but I left as
is for compatibility reason for now.)

> As a reviewer i have some suggestions, but only trivia. I don't know if it's a problem that this series hasn't been send to devel@driverdev.osuosl.org

No, it's just because that address isn't found in MAINTAINERS file.
If it should go through it, please correct the entry at first :)


Thanks!

does it mean this series should go through your tree instead of Greg's?

Actual there are two of them.

First one are incompatibilities of older VC4 firmware with commit 14dd37fc7b65 ("staging: vc04_services: Remove cache-line-size property (v3)"). There is a pull request for the Foundation kernel which hasn't been upstreamed yet [1].

The second is documented here [2].

[1] - https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/pull/2666
[2] - https://github.com/lategoodbye/rpi-zero/issues/23

Great, just of curiosity which config did you use?

there happens to be other cleanups to the driver that show up in the
