SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +======================= +Userspace-driven timers +======================= + +:Author: Ivan Orlov + +Preface +======= + +This document describes the userspace-driven timers: virtual ALSA timers +which could be created and controlled by userspace applications using +IOCTL calls. Such timers could be useful when synchronizing audio +stream with timer sources which we don't have ALSA timers exported for +(e.g. PTP clocks), and when synchronizing the audio stream going through +two virtual sound devices using ``snd-aloop`` (for instance, when +we have a network application sending frames to one snd-aloop device, +and another sound application listening on the other end of snd-aloop). + +Enabling userspace-driven timers +================================ + +The userspace-driven timers could be enabled in the kernel using the +``CONFIG_SND_UTIMER`` configuration option. It depends on the +``CONFIG_SND_TIMER`` option, so it also should be enabled. + +Userspace-driven timers API +=========================== + +Userspace application can create a userspace-driven ALSA timer by +executing the ``SNDRV_TIMER_IOCTL_CREATE`` ioctl call on the +``/dev/snd/timer`` device file descriptor. The ``snd_utimer_info`` +structure should be passed as an ioctl argument: + +:: + + struct snd_utimer_info { + snd_pcm_uframes_t frame_rate; + snd_pcm_uframes_t period_size; + unsigned int id; + } + +``frame_rate`` and ``period_size`` set the desired frame rate and period +size emulated by the virtual timer respectively. ``id`` field gets +overwritten by the ioctl, and the identifier you get in this field after +the call can be used as a timer subdevice number when passing the timer +to ``snd-aloop`` kernel module or other userspace applications. There +could be up to 128 userspace-driven timers in the system at one moment +of time, thus the id value ranges from 0 to 127. + +Besides from overwriting the ``snd_utimer_info`` struct, ioctl returns +a timer file descriptor, which can be used to trigger the timer. This +guarantees that the timer can only be triggered by the process which +created it. The timer then can be triggered with +``SNDRV_TIMER_IOCTL_TRIGGER`` ioctl call on the timer file descriptor. + +So, the example code for creating and triggering the timer would be: + +:: + + static const struct snd_utimer_info utimer_info = { + .frame_rate = 8000, + .period_size = 4410, + .id = -1, + }; + + int timer_device_fd = open("/dev/snd/timer", O_RDWR | O_CLOEXEC); + int utimer_fd = ioctl(timer_device_fd, SNDRV_TIMER_IOCTL_CREATE, &utimer_info); + + if (utimer_fd < 0) { + perror("Failed to create the timer"); + return -1; + } + + ... + + /* + * Now we want to trigger the timer. Callbacks of all of the + * timer instances binded to this timer will be executed after + * this call. + */ + ioctl(utimer_fd, SNDRV_TIMER_IOCTL_TRIGGER, NULL); + + ... + + /* Now, destroy the timer */ + close(utimer_fd); + + +More detailed example of creating and ticking the timer could be found +in the utimer ALSA selftest. + +Userspace-driven timers and snd-aloop +------------------------------------- + +Userspace-driven timers could be easily used with ``snd-aloop`` module +when synchronizing two sound applications on both ends of the virtual +sound loopback. For instance, if one of the applications receives sound +frames from network and sends them to snd-aloop pcm device, and another +application listens for frames on the other snd-aloop pcm device, it +makes sense that the ALSA middle layer should initiate a data +transaction when the new period of data is received through network, but +not when the certain amount of jiffies elapses. Userspace-driven ALSA +timers could be used to achieve this. + +To use userspace-driven ALSA timer as a timer source of snd-aloop, pass +the following string as the snd-aloop ``timer_source`` parameter: + +:: + + # modprobe snd-aloop timer_source="-1.4." + +Where ``utimer_id`` is the id of the timer you created with +``SNDRV_TIMER_IOCTL_CREATE``, and ``4`` is the number of +userspace-driven timers device (``SNDRV_TIMER_GLOBAL_UDRIVEN``). + +After that, each time you trigger the timer with +``SNDRV_TIMER_IOCTL_TRIGGER`` the new period of data will be transferred +from one snd-aloop device to another.

The first ioctl is SNDRV_TIMER_IOCTL_CREATE, which gets the snd_utimer_info struct as a parameter and returns a file descriptor of a virtual timer. It also updates the `id` field of the snd_utimer_info struct, which provides a unique identifier for the timer (basically, the subdevice number which can be used when creating timer instances). This patch also introduces a tiny id allocator for the userspace-driven timers, which guarantees that we don't have more than 128 of them in the system. Another ioctl is SNDRV_TIMER_IOCTL_TRIGGER, which allows us to trigger the virtual timer (and calls snd_timer_interrupt for the timer under the hood), causing all of the timer instances binded to this timer to execute their callbacks. The maximum amount of ticks available for the timer is 1 for the sake of simplification of the userspace API. 'start', 'stop', 'open' and 'close' callbacks for the userspace-driven timers are empty since we don't really do any hardware initialization here.

The test: 1. Creates a userspace-driven timer with ioctl to /dev/snd/timer 2. Starts the `global-timer` application to count the ticks of the timer from step 1. 3. Asynchronously triggers the timer multiple times with some interval 4. Compares the amount of caught ticks with the amount of trigger calls. Since we can't include and in one file due to overlapping declarations, I have to split the test into two applications: one of them counts the amount of timer ticks in the defined time period, and another one is the actual test which creates the timer, triggers it periodically and starts the first app to count the amount of ticks in a separate thread. Besides from testing the functionality itself, the test represents a sample application showing userspace-driven ALSA timers API.
