No, copy() is an alternative to doing DMA rather than something that works with DMA. If you want to have some sort of post processing operation it shoudn't be called copy(). It's probably worth considering just making a new format and letting userspace convert things here.
You mean using a plug-in alsa to do it? this seems not possible with tiny-alsa... Without a plug-in, driver will not be compatible with standard audio application.
Right. But if you're using tinyalsa you've got some open coded system specific stuff anyway!
Do you think this would be reasonable if i implement something similar in my driver, without using the soc generic DMA engine?
Probably. It might even be possible to fit it elegently into the generic dmaengine code, just don't say it's a copy() operation since that's a specific thing in ALSA. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
