audio_engine_ops(9S)

Name

audio_engine_ops - audio engine operations vector

Synopsis

#include <sys/audio/audio_driver.h>

Interface Level

Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI)

Description

An audio_engine_ops structure defines vectors that an audio driver exports to the Sun audio framework.

One such vector is used for each DMA or PIO engine (sometimes referred to as a “stream”) supported on the device.

    The audio framework provides the following synchronization guarantees for audio engines:

  • only one thread will be executing an audio engine entry point for a given audio device at any one time

  • no threads will be executing any audio engine entry points for a given audio device if that device is suspended. See audio_dev_suspend(9F).

Each entry point receives as its first argument the driver private state that was registered with audio_engine_set_private(9F).

audio_engine_version

The version of the engine interface. Drivers must supply AUDIO_ENGINE_VERSION.

audio_engine_open

Function entry that opens the engine and initializes hardware and resources.

audio_engine_close

Function entry that closes the engine and possibly releases any resources.

audio_engine_start

Function entry to start audio data transfer.

audio_engine_stop

Function entry to stop audio data transfer.

audio_engine_count

Function entry to return engine's frame count.

audio_engine_format

Function entry to get the format of the engine.

audio_engine_channels

Function entry to get the number of channels of the engine.

audio_engine_rate

Function entry to get the sample rate of the engine.

audio_engine_sync

Function entry to synchronize the DMA cache for the buffer associated with the engine.

audio_engine_qlen

Function entry to determine the on-device FIFO len for the engine.

audio_engine_chinfo

Function entry to determine number and layout channels for device.

audio_engine_playahead

Function entry to determine minimum number of frames that should be queued to the engine.
