From b6db70a16026bfc226a200a4382d04e2d15d84a1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: John Grossman Date: Tue, 3 Apr 2012 16:37:38 -0700 Subject: pcm: Add PCM_NORESTART flag Add a flag which can be passed to pcm_open (called PCM_NORESTART). When set on a playback stream, calls to pcm_write will not automatically attempt to restart an ALSA device in the case of an underflow. Instead, it will propagate the first EPIPE error up to the application to allow it to handle the underflow situation. Subsequent calls to pcm_write will attempt to start the pipeline. --- include/tinyalsa/asoundlib.h | 9 +++++++++ 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+) (limited to 'include') diff --git a/include/tinyalsa/asoundlib.h b/include/tinyalsa/asoundlib.h index 704354e..e65403e 100644 --- a/include/tinyalsa/asoundlib.h +++ b/include/tinyalsa/asoundlib.h @@ -45,6 +45,15 @@ struct pcm; #define PCM_IN 0x10000000 #define PCM_MMAP 0x00000001 #define PCM_NOIRQ 0x00000002 +#define PCM_NORESTART 0x00000004 /* PCM_NORESTART - when set, calls to + * pcm_write for a playback stream will not + * attempt to restart the stream in the case + * of an underflow, but will return -EPIPE + * instead.
