PCM Interface is designed to write or read digital audio frames. A frame is the data unit converted into/from sound in one time unit (1/rate seconds), by example if you set your playback PCM rate to 44100 you'll hear 44100 frames per second. The size in bytes of a frame may be obtained from bits needed to store a sample and channels count.

See the PCM (digital audio) interface page for more details.

Parameters

  pcm | PCM handle
  params | Configuration space
  val | 0 = disable, 1 = enable (default) period wakeup

Returns
  Zero on success, otherwise a negative error code.

This function must be called only on devices where non-blocking mode is enabled.

To check whether the hardware does support disabling period wakeups, call snd_pcm_hw_params_can_disable_period_wakeup(). If the hardware does not support this mode, standard period wakeups will be generated.

Even with disabled period wakeups, the period size/time/count parameters are valid; it is suggested to use snd_pcm_hw_params_set_period_size_last().

When period wakeups are disabled, the application must not use any functions that could block on this device. The use of poll should be limited to error cases. The application needs to use an external event or a timer to check the state of the ring buffer and refill it apropriately.

Examples
  /test/latency.c.

Note: This is similar to setting an OSS wakeup point. The valid values for 'val' are determined by the specific hardware. Most PC sound cards can only accept power of 2 frame counts (i.e. 512, 1024, 2048). You cannot use this as a high resolution timer - it is limited to how often the sound card hardware raises an interrupt.

Returns
  0 otherwise a negative error code

A portion of playback buffer is overwritten with silence when playback underrun is nearer than silence threshold (see snd_pcm_sw_params_set_silence_threshold)

When drain silence (see snd_pcm_hw_params_get_drain_silence) is disabled, this will also apply for draining, i.e. silence is written also when the drain end is nearer than the silence threshold.

The special case is when silence size value is equal or greater than boundary. The unused portion of the ring buffer (initial written samples are untouched) is filled with silence at start. Later, only just processed sample area is filled with silence. Note: silence_threshold must be set to zero.
