Linux 内核音频数据传递主要流程 (上)
Linux 用户空间应用程序通过声卡驱动程序（一般牵涉到多个设备驱动程序）和 Linux 内核 ALSA 框架导出的 PCM 设备文件，如 /dev/snd/pcmC0D0c 和 /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p 等，与 Linux 内核音频设备驱动程序和音频硬件进行数据传递。PCM 设备文件的文件操作定义 (位于 sound/core/pcm_native.c) 如下：
const struct file_operations snd_pcm_f_ops[2] = {
{
.owner = THIS_MODULE,
.write = snd_pcm_write,
.write_iter = snd_pcm_writev,
.open = snd_pcm_playback_open,
.release = snd_pcm_release,
.llseek = no_llseek,
.poll = snd_pcm_poll,
.unlocked_ioctl = snd_pcm_ioctl,
.compat_ioctl = snd_pcm_ioctl_compat,
.mmap = snd_pcm_mmap,
.fasync = snd_pcm_fasync,
.get_unmapped_area = snd_pcm_get_unmapped_area,
},
{
.owner = THIS_MODULE,
.read = snd_pcm_read,
.read_iter = snd_pcm_readv,
.open = snd_pcm_capture_open,
.release = snd_pcm_release,
.llseek = no_llseek,
.poll = snd_pcm_poll,
.unlocked_ioctl = snd_pcm_ioctl,
.compat_ioctl = snd_pcm_ioctl_compat,
.mmap = snd_pcm_mmap,
.fasync = snd_pcm_fasync,
.get_unmapped_area = snd_pcm_get_unmapped_area,
}
};大多数情况下，音频设备会同时提供播放和录制功能，用于播放和录制的 PCM 设备文件是一起导出的，播放和录制的 PCM 设备文件的文件操作也是一起定义的，其中索引为 SNDRV_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK，也就是 0 的文件操作用于播放，索引为 SNDRV_PCM_STREAM_CAPTURE，也就是 1 的文件操作用于录制。播放的 PCM 文件的文件操作有 write 和 write_iter 操作，没有 read 和 read_iter 操作，录制的 PCM 文件的文件操作则有 read 和 read_iter 操作，没有 write 和 write_iter 操作。
Linux 用户空间有 alsa-lib 和 tinyalsa 等库可用于与 Linux 内核 ALSA 框架交互。alsa-lib 和 tinyalsa 等库主要通过 ioctl 命令与 Linux 内核 ALSA 框架交互。PCM 设备文件的 ioctl 操作 snd_pcm_ioctl() 函数定义 (位于 sound/core/pcm_native.c) 如下：

}alsa-lib 和 tinyalsa 等库主要通过 SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_WRITEI_FRAMES、SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_READI_FRAMES、SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_WRITEN_FRAMES 和 SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_READN_FRAMES 等四个 ioctl 命令与 Linux 内核 ALSA 框架交换数据。这几个 ioctl 命令主要的区别在于，传递的数据格式不同，SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_READI_FRAMES 和 SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_WRITEI_FRAMES 命令用于读写 interleaved 格式的音频数据，SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_READN_FRAMES 和 SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_WRITEN_FRAMES 命令则用于读写 noninterleaved 格式的音频数据。在内存中，interleaved 格式的数据排列方式为：
cha0chb0chc0chd0 . . . cha1chb1chc1chd1 . . . cha2chb2chc2chd2 . . . . . .noninterleaved 格式的数据排列方式为：
cha0cha1cha2cha3 . . . . . . chb0chb1chb2chb3 . . . . . . chc0chc1chc2chc3 . . . . . .即 interleaved 格式的数据是逐音频帧排列的，noninterleaved 格式的数据则是逐通道排列的。
SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_READI_FRAMES 和 SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_WRITEI_FRAMES 命令由 snd_pcm_xferi_frames_ioctl() 函数处理，SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_READN_FRAMES 和 SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_WRITEN_FRAMES 命令则由 snd_pcm_xfern_frames_ioctl() 函数处理，这两个函数定义 (位于 sound/core/pcm_native.c) 如下：

EXPORT_SYMBOL(__snd_pcm_lib_xfer);用户空间应用程序与 Linux 内核 ALSA 音频子系统进行连续的数据交换的过程为：
- 通过
ioctl()操作的SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_REFINE、SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_PARAMS、SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_SW_PARAMS等命令配置数据交换参数，如启动阈值start_threshold，停止阈值stop_threshold等。 - 通过
ioctl()操作的SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_PREPARE等命令执行prepare操作，substream的状态会切换为SNDRV_PCM_STATE_PREPARED。 - 连续多次通过
read()/write()或ioctl()操作与 Linux 内核 ALSA 音频子系统交换数据。 - 音频数据交换结束，通过
ioctl()操作的SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_FREE等命令释放资源。
__snd_pcm_lib_xfer() 函数的执行，需要放在上述用户空间应用程序与 Linux 内核 ALSA 音频子系统进行连续的数据交换的整个过程中来看，这个执行过程如下：
调用
pcm_sanity_check()函数执行合理性检查，pcm_sanity_check()函数检查 DMA buffer 和状态。音频设备驱动程序需要保证，在__snd_pcm_lib_xfer()函数执行时，DMA buffer 已经准备好。根据传入的参数，即数据格式是 interleaved 还是 noninterleaved，播放还是录制，数据缓冲区是否为空，操作是由内核空间代码发起还是由用户空间代码发起等，选择
writer和transfer操作。writer和transfer操作主要用于在传入的数据缓冲区和 DMA buffer 之间传递数据。调用
pcm_accessible_state()函数检查runtime/substream的状态，当状态不为SNDRV_PCM_STATE_PREPARED、SNDRV_PCM_STATE_RUNNING和SNDRV_PCM_STATE_PAUSED时，报错并返回。在当次调用之前，已经执行过__snd_pcm_lib_xfer()函数发起数据传递，则这次调用中，substream的状态可能已经变为某种异常状态，这里检查这种异常状态并及早返回。当
runtime状态为SNDRV_PCM_STATE_RUNNING时，调用snd_pcm_update_hw_ptr(substream)函数更新硬件指针hw_ptr。正常情况下，第二次及之后调用__snd_pcm_lib_xfer()函数时，substream处于SNDRV_PCM_STATE_RUNNING状态。这里在非中断上下文更新硬件指针hw_ptr。更新硬件指针hw_ptr会请求硬件驱动程序的pointer操作，获得当前发送的数据的位置。对于音频录制，如果
runtime状态为SNDRV_PCM_STATE_PREPARED，且请求录制的帧数超过发起阈值，则调用snd_pcm_start(substream)函数触发录制。正常情况下，对于某个音频流，__snd_pcm_lib_xfer()函数第一次被调用时，substream处于SNDRV_PCM_STATE_PREPARED状态。调用
snd_pcm_avail(substream)函数获得 DMA buffer 中以帧为单位的可用空间大小。用户空间应用程序和 Linux 内核设备驱动程序对 DMA buffer 的访问是典型的读者-写者模型。对于播放来说，用户空间应用程序向 DMA buffer 写入数据，Linux 内核设备驱动程序从 DMA buffer 读取数据并发送给硬件设备。对于录制来说，Linux 内核设备驱动程序从硬件设备获得数据并写入 DMA buffer，用户空间应用程序从 DMA buffer 读取数据并作进一步处理。
这里的可用空间大小是站在用户空间应用程序的视角来说的，即对于播放来说，可用空间大小指还可以向 DMA buffer 写入的数据量，对于录制来说，则指可以从 DMA buffer 读取的数据量。
通过一个循环，处理所有的数据传递请求。
(1). 当 DMA buffer 的可用空间为 0 时，则等待直到可用空间大于 0。
(2). 计算要拷贝的数据量大小，及拷贝的目的内存地址在 DMA buffer 中的位置等。
(3). 调用
writer和transfer操作在 DMA buffer 和传入的缓冲区之间传递数据，appl_ofs作为hwoff参数传给writer操作。对于录制，数据传递在上面的第 5 步触发，这里将音频硬件采集并放进 DMA buffer 中的数据拷贝到用户空间应用程序传进来的缓冲区中；对于播放，这里将用户空间应用程序传进来的数据拷贝到 DMA buffer。(4). 再次调用
pcm_accessible_state()函数检查runtime/substream的状态，当状态不为SNDRV_PCM_STATE_PREPARED、SNDRV_PCM_STATE_RUNNING和SNDRV_PCM_STATE_PAUSED时，报错并返回。(5). 更新
appl_ptr并调用pcm_lib_apply_appl_ptr()函数应用新的appl_ptr。在pcm_lib_apply_appl_ptr()函数中，会调用驱动程序实现的ack操作，在ack操作中，音频硬件设备驱动程序可以获得上层用户空间应用程序最新的读或写指针。不同 Linux 内核版本，其 ASoC 框架的接口和实现不同。在 Linux-5.10 中，sound/soc/soc-pcm.c文件里的soc_new_pcm()函数，没有为struct snd_pcm_ops设置ack操作，struct snd_soc_component_driver也没有ack操作，但更新一些的版本，这些都已经有了。(6). 根据传递的帧数，更新偏移量、要传递的帧数、已经传递的帧数和 DMA buffer 中可用的空间大小。
(7). 对于音频播放，如果
runtime状态为SNDRV_PCM_STATE_PREPARED，且 DMA buffer 中可以播放的数据量超过发起阈值，则调用snd_pcm_start(substream)函数触发播放。播放的数据传递的触发，在第一次调用__snd_pcm_lib_xfer()函数，且拷贝了播放数据之后执行；录制的数据传递的触发，在第一次调用__snd_pcm_lib_xfer()函数中，一上来就执行。返回传递的帧数。
read/write操作的实现会再将帧数转为字节数返回给用户空间应用程序，ioctl操作则向用户空间应用程序返回帧数。
不同情况下，用于在传入的数据缓冲区和 DMA buffer 之间传递数据的 writer 和 transfer 操作定义 (位于 sound/core/pcm_lib.c) 如下：

}transfer 操作用于执行数据拷贝。根据发起数据传递的来源是内核还是用户空间应用程序，以及是播放还是录制，transfer 操作有四个默认实现，分别为 default_write_copy_kernel()、default_read_copy_kernel()、default_write_copy() 和 default_read_copy()，这几个函数根据 channel 和 hwoff 通过 get_dma_ptr() 函数获得 DMA 指针，并通过内核提供的 copy_from_user()、memcpy() 和 copy_to_user() 等函数在传入的数据缓冲区和 DMA buffer 之间传递数据。
从 get_dma_ptr() 函数可以看到，各种音频数据格式，在 DMA buffer 中，各个 channel 的数据的布局。数据格式为 noninterleaved，DMA buffer 按照 channel 数平均分成多个连续的区域，每个 channel 一个。数据格式为 interleaved，则在 DMA buffer 中，音频数据逐帧排列。
writer 操作用于为数据拷贝做准备，它将帧为单位的偏移量和大小等数据拷贝参数转为以字节为单位，并调用 transfer 操作执行数据拷贝。writer 操作有两个默认实现，分别为 interleaved_copy() 和 noninterleaved_copy()。当数据格式为 noninterleaved 时，writer 操作分别拷贝各个 channel 的数据，传入的音频数据保存在多个不同的缓冲区中，每个通道一个，音频数据通过指针数组的方式传递。
writer 和 transfer 操作中用到的指向 DMA buffer 的 hwoff 偏移量，由 runtime->control->appl_ptr 计算而来，在关于 DMA buffer 访问的读者-写者模型中，对于播放，runtime->control->appl_ptr 是写指针，对于录制，它是读指针。
snd_pcm_avail() 函数用于获得 DMA buffer 中，用户空间应用程序视角的，以帧为单位的可用空间大小，Linux 内核还提供了另一个函数 snd_pcm_hw_avail()，用于获得音频硬件设备驱动视角的，以帧为单位的可用空间大小，这两个函数定义 (位于 sound/core/pcm_local.h) 如下：
static inline snd_pcm_uframes_t
snd_pcm_avail(struct snd_pcm_substream *substream)
{
if (substream->stream == SNDRV_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK)
return snd_pcm_playback_avail(substream->runtime);
else
return snd_pcm_capture_avail(substream->runtime);
}
static inline snd_pcm_uframes_t
snd_pcm_hw_avail(struct snd_pcm_substream *substream)
{
if (substream->stream == SNDRV_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK)
return snd_pcm_playback_hw_avail(substream->runtime);
else
return snd_pcm_capture_hw_avail(substream->runtime);
}这两个函数根据流的类型是播放还是录制，将操作分派给另外四个函数 snd_pcm_playback_avail()、snd_pcm_capture_avail()、snd_pcm_playback_hw_avail() 和 snd_pcm_capture_hw_avail()。snd_pcm_playback_avail() 等函数定义 (位于 include/sound/pcm.h) 如下：
/**
* snd_pcm_playback_avail - Get the available (writable) space for playback
* @runtime: PCM runtime instance
*
* Result is between 0 ... (boundary - 1)
*/
static inline snd_pcm_uframes_t snd_pcm_playback_avail(struct snd_pcm_runtime *runtime)
{
snd_pcm_sframes_t avail = runtime->status->hw_ptr + runtime->buffer_size - runtime->control->appl_ptr;
if (avail < 0)
avail += runtime->boundary;
else if ((snd_pcm_uframes_t) avail >= runtime->boundary)
avail -= runtime->boundary;
return avail;
}
/**
* snd_pcm_capture_avail - Get the available (readable) space for capture
* @runtime: PCM runtime instance
*
* Result is between 0 ... (boundary - 1)
*/
static inline snd_pcm_uframes_t snd_pcm_capture_avail(struct snd_pcm_runtime *runtime)
{
snd_pcm_sframes_t avail = runtime->status->hw_ptr - runtime->control->appl_ptr;
if (avail < 0)
avail += runtime->boundary;
return avail;
}
/**
* snd_pcm_playback_hw_avail - Get the queued space for playback
* @runtime: PCM runtime instance
*/
static inline snd_pcm_sframes_t snd_pcm_playback_hw_avail(struct snd_pcm_runtime *runtime)
{
return runtime->buffer_size - snd_pcm_playback_avail(runtime);
}
/**
* snd_pcm_capture_hw_avail - Get the free space for capture
* @runtime: PCM runtime instance
*/
static inline snd_pcm_sframes_t snd_pcm_capture_hw_avail(struct snd_pcm_runtime *runtime)
{
return runtime->buffer_size - snd_pcm_capture_avail(runtime);
}在 DMA buffer 访问的读者-写者模型中，对于播放，runtime->status->hw_ptr 是读指针，(runtime->control->appl_ptr - runtime->status->hw_ptr) 是已经写入，但还未播放的数据量，对于录制，runtime->status->hw_ptr 是写指针。这里看到的 runtime->boundary 不用于控制读写指针超出 DMA buffer 容量时指针的环绕，它通常是一个很大的，用于控制流的边界的值。runtime->control->appl_ptr 和 runtime->status->hw_ptr 都是随着数据传递的进行，单调递增的值。在 __snd_pcm_lib_xfer() 函数中，拷贝数据时，通过 runtime->control->appl_ptr 除以 DMA buffer 大小取余获得要拷贝的数据在 DMA buffer 中的偏移量，更新 runtime->control->appl_ptr 时，则是直接加上了传递的帧数。
__snd_pcm_lib_xfer() 函数调用 snd_pcm_start() 函数触发数据传递，这个函数定义 (位于 sound/core/pcm_native.c) 如下：
/*
* start callbacks
*/
static int snd_pcm_pre_start(struct snd_pcm_substream *substream,
snd_pcm_state_t state)
{
struct snd_pcm_runtime *runtime = substream->runtime;
if (runtime->status->state != SNDRV_PCM_STATE_PREPARED)
return -EBADFD;
if (substream->stream == SNDRV_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK &&
!snd_pcm_playback_data(substream))
return -EPIPE;
runtime->trigger_tstamp_latched = false;
runtime->trigger_master = substream;
return 0;
}
static int snd_pcm_do_start(struct snd_pcm_substream *substream,
snd_pcm_state_t state)
{
if (substream->runtime->trigger_master != substream)
return 0;
return substream->ops->trigger(substream, SNDRV_PCM_TRIGGER_START);
}
static void snd_pcm_undo_start(struct snd_pcm_substream *substream,
snd_pcm_state_t state)
{
if (substream->runtime->trigger_master == substream)
substream->ops->trigger(substream, SNDRV_PCM_TRIGGER_STOP);
}
static void snd_pcm_post_start(struct snd_pcm_substream *substream,
snd_pcm_state_t state)
{
struct snd_pcm_runtime *runtime = substream->runtime;
snd_pcm_trigger_tstamp(substream);
runtime->hw_ptr_jiffies = jiffies;
runtime->hw_ptr_buffer_jiffies = (runtime->buffer_size * HZ) /
runtime->rate;
runtime->status->state = state;
if (substream->stream == SNDRV_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK &&
runtime->silence_size > 0)
snd_pcm_playback_silence(substream, ULONG_MAX);
snd_pcm_timer_notify(substream, SNDRV_TIMER_EVENT_MSTART);
}
static const struct action_ops snd_pcm_action_start = {
.pre_action = snd_pcm_pre_start,
.do_action = snd_pcm_do_start,
.undo_action = snd_pcm_undo_start,
.post_action = snd_pcm_post_start
};
/**
* snd_pcm_start - start all linked streams
* @substream: the PCM substream instance
*
* Return: Zero if successful, or a negative error code.
* The stream lock must be acquired before calling this function.
*/
int snd_pcm_start(struct snd_pcm_substream *substream)
{
return snd_pcm_action(&snd_pcm_action_start, substream,
SNDRV_PCM_STATE_RUNNING);
}这里调用音频硬件设备驱动程序的 trigger 操作，触发硬件的数据传输。
