| 2 | Advanced Linux Sound Architecture - Driver |
| 3 | ========================================== |
| 4 | Configuration guide |
| 5 | |
| 6 | |
| 7 | Kernel Configuration |
| 8 | ==================== |
| 9 | |
| 10 | To enable ALSA support you need at least to build the kernel with |
| 11 | primary sound card support (CONFIG_SOUND). Since ALSA can emulate OSS, |
| 12 | you don't have to choose any of the OSS modules. |
| 13 | |
| 14 | Enable "OSS API emulation" (CONFIG_SND_OSSEMUL) and both OSS mixer and |
| 15 | PCM supports if you want to run OSS applications with ALSA. |
| 16 | |
| 17 | If you want to support the WaveTable functionality on cards such as |
| 18 | SB Live! then you need to enable "Sequencer support" |
| 19 | (CONFIG_SND_SEQUENCER). |
| 20 | |
| 21 | To make ALSA debug messages more verbose, enable the "Verbose printk" |
| 22 | and "Debug" options. To check for memory leaks, turn on "Debug memory" |
| 23 | too. "Debug detection" will add checks for the detection of cards. |
| 24 | |
| 25 | Please note that all the ALSA ISA drivers support the Linux isapnp API |
| 26 | (if the card supports ISA PnP). You don't need to configure the cards |
| 27 | using isapnptools. |
| 28 | |
| 29 | |
| 30 | Creating ALSA devices |
| 31 | ===================== |
| 32 | |
| 33 | This depends on your distribution, but normally you use the /dev/MAKEDEV |
| 34 | script to create the necessary device nodes. On some systems you use a |
| 35 | script named 'snddevices'. |
| 36 | |
| 37 | |
| 38 | Module parameters |
| 39 | ================= |
| 40 | |
| 41 | The user can load modules with options. If the module supports more than |
| 42 | one card and you have more than one card of the same type then you can |
| 43 | specify multiple values for the option separated by commas. |
| 44 | |
| 45 | Prior to version 0.9.0rc4 options had a 'snd_' prefix. This was removed. |
| 46 | |
| 47 | Module snd |
| 48 | ---------- |
| 49 | |
| 50 | The core ALSA module. It is used by all ALSA card drivers. |
| 51 | It takes the following options which have global effects. |
| 52 | |
| 53 | major - major number for sound driver |
| 54 | - Default: 116 |
| 55 | cards_limit |
| 56 | - limiting card index for auto-loading (1-8) |
| 57 | - Default: 1 |
| 58 | - For auto-loading more than one card, specify this |
| 59 | option together with snd-card-X aliases. |
Takashi Iwai | 304cd07 | 2007-10-26 15:10:15 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 60 | slots - Reserve the slot index for the given driver. |
| 61 | This option takes multiple strings. |
| 62 | See "Module Autoloading Support" section for details. |
Takashi Iwai | 36ce99c | 2009-08-27 16:45:07 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 63 | debug - Specifies the debug message level |
| 64 | (0 = disable debug prints, 1 = normal debug messages, |
| 65 | 2 = verbose debug messages) |
| 66 | This option appears only when CONFIG_SND_DEBUG=y. |
| 67 | This option can be dynamically changed via sysfs |
| 68 | /sys/modules/snd/parameters/debug file. |
Linus Torvalds | 1da177e | 2005-04-16 15:20:36 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 69 | |
| 70 | Module snd-pcm-oss |
| 71 | ------------------ |
| 72 | |
| 73 | The PCM OSS emulation module. |
| 74 | This module takes options which change the mapping of devices. |
| 75 | |
| 76 | dsp_map - PCM device number maps assigned to the 1st OSS device. |
| 77 | - Default: 0 |
| 78 | adsp_map - PCM device number maps assigned to the 2st OSS device. |
| 79 | - Default: 1 |
| 80 | nonblock_open |
Takashi Iwai | 6243008 | 2005-09-05 17:12:29 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 81 | - Don't block opening busy PCM devices. Default: 1 |
Linus Torvalds | 1da177e | 2005-04-16 15:20:36 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 82 | |
| 83 | For example, when dsp_map=2, /dev/dsp will be mapped to PCM #2 of |
| 84 | the card #0. Similarly, when adsp_map=0, /dev/adsp will be mapped |
| 85 | to PCM #0 of the card #0. |
| 86 | For changing the second or later card, specify the option with |
| 87 | commas, such like "dsp_map=0,1". |
| 88 | |
| 89 | nonblock_open option is used to change the behavior of the PCM |
| 90 | regarding opening the device. When this option is non-zero, |
| 91 | opening a busy OSS PCM device won't be blocked but return |
| 92 | immediately with EAGAIN (just like O_NONBLOCK flag). |
| 93 | |
| 94 | Module snd-rawmidi |
| 95 | ------------------ |
| 96 | |
| 97 | This module takes options which change the mapping of devices. |
| 98 | similar to those of the snd-pcm-oss module. |
| 99 | |
| 100 | midi_map - MIDI device number maps assigned to the 1st OSS device. |
| 101 | - Default: 0 |
| 102 | amidi_map - MIDI device number maps assigned to the 2st OSS device. |
| 103 | - Default: 1 |
| 104 | |
| 105 | Common parameters for top sound card modules |
| 106 | -------------------------------------------- |
| 107 | |
| 108 | Each of top level sound card module takes the following options. |
| 109 | |
| 110 | index - index (slot #) of sound card |
Clemens Ladisch | 0ef797c | 2005-11-21 07:30:20 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 111 | - Values: 0 through 31 or negative |
Linus Torvalds | 1da177e | 2005-04-16 15:20:36 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 112 | - If nonnegative, assign that index number |
| 113 | - if negative, interpret as a bitmask of permissible |
| 114 | indices; the first free permitted index is assigned |
| 115 | - Default: -1 |
| 116 | id - card ID (identifier or name) |
| 117 | - Can be up to 15 characters long |
| 118 | - Default: the card type |
| 119 | - A directory by this name is created under /proc/asound/ |
| 120 | containing information about the card |
| 121 | - This ID can be used instead of the index number in |
| 122 | identifying the card |
| 123 | enable - enable card |
| 124 | - Default: enabled, for PCI and ISA PnP cards |
| 125 | |
Rene Herman | cf40a31 | 2006-03-28 12:38:20 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 126 | Module snd-adlib |
| 127 | ---------------- |
| 128 | |
| 129 | Module for AdLib FM cards. |
| 130 | |
| 131 | port - port # for OPL chip |
| 132 | |
| 133 | This module supports multiple cards. It does not support autoprobe, so |
| 134 | the port must be specified. For actual AdLib FM cards it will be 0x388. |
| 135 | Note that this card does not have PCM support and no mixer; only FM |
| 136 | synthesis. |
| 137 | |
| 138 | Make sure you have "sbiload" from the alsa-tools package available and, |
| 139 | after loading the module, find out the assigned ALSA sequencer port |
| 140 | number through "sbiload -l". Example output: |
| 141 | |
| 142 | Port Client name Port name |
| 143 | 64:0 OPL2 FM synth OPL2 FM Port |
| 144 | |
| 145 | Load the std.sb and drums.sb patches also supplied by sbiload: |
| 146 | |
| 147 | sbiload -p 64:0 std.sb drums.sb |
| 148 | |
| 149 | If you use this driver to drive an OPL3, you can use std.o3 and drums.o3 |
| 150 | instead. To have the card produce sound, use aplaymidi from alsa-utils: |
| 151 | |
| 152 | aplaymidi -p 64:0 foo.mid |

| 318 | This module supports multiple cards. It does not support autoprobe: port, |
| 319 | wss_port, irq and dma1 have to be specified. The other values are |
| 320 | optional. |
| 321 | |
| 322 | "port" needs to match the BASE ADDRESS jumper on the card (0x220 or 0x240) |
| 323 | or the value stored in the card's EEPROM for cards that have an EEPROM and |
| 324 | their "CONFIG MODE" jumper set to "EEPROM SETTING". The other values can |
Lucas De Marchi | 25985ed | 2011-03-30 22:57:33 -0300 | [diff] [blame] | 325 | be chosen freely from the options enumerated above. |
René Herman | 4953119 | 2010-08-11 13:08:06 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 326 | |
| 327 | If dma2 is specified and different from dma1, the card will operate in |
| 328 | full-duplex mode. When dma1=3, only dma2=0 is valid and the only way to |
| 329 | enable capture since only channels 0 and 1 are available for capture. |
| 330 | |
| 331 | Generic settings are "port=0x220 wss_port=0x530 irq=10 dma1=1 dma2=0 |
| 332 | mpu_port=0x330 mpu_irq=9 fm_port=0x388". |

| 352 | This module supports multiple cards. It does not support autoprobe: port, |
| 353 | wss_port, irq and dma1 have to be specified. The other values are |
| 354 | optional. |
| 355 | |
| 356 | "port" needs to match the BASE ADDRESS jumper on the card (0x220 or 0x240) |
| 357 | or the value stored in the card's EEPROM for cards that have an EEPROM and |
| 358 | their "CONFIG MODE" jumper set to "EEPROM SETTING". The other values can |
Lucas De Marchi | 25985ed | 2011-03-30 22:57:33 -0300 | [diff] [blame] | 359 | be chosen freely from the options enumerated above. |
René Herman | 4953119 | 2010-08-11 13:08:06 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 360 | |
| 361 | If dma2 is specified and different from dma1, the card will operate in |
| 362 | full-duplex mode. When dma1=3, only dma2=0 is valid and the only way to |
| 363 | enable capture since only channels 0 and 1 are available for capture. |
| 364 | |
| 365 | Generic settings are "port=0x220 wss_port=0x530 irq=10 dma1=1 dma2=0 |
| 366 | mpu_port=0x330 mpu_irq=9 fm_port=0x388". |
| 367 | |
| 368 | Whatever IRQ and DMA channels you pick, be sure to reserve them for |
| 369 | legacy ISA in your BIOS. |

Takashi Iwai | 2734616 | 2006-01-12 18:28:44 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 940 | NB: If you get many "azx_get_response timeout" messages at |
| 941 | loading, it's likely a problem of interrupts (e.g. ACPI irq |
| 942 | routing). Try to boot with options like "pci=noacpi". Also, you |
| 943 | can try "single_cmd=1" module option. This will switch the |
| 944 | communication method between HDA controller and codecs to the |
| 945 | single immediate commands instead of CORB/RIRB. Basically, the |
| 946 | single command mode is provided only for BIOS, and you won't get |
| 947 | unsolicited events, too. But, at least, this works independently |
| 948 | from the irq. Remember this is a last resort, and should be |
| 949 | avoided as much as possible... |

Takashi Iwai | 9590474 | 2007-05-19 17:06:42 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 951 | MORE NOTES ON "azx_get_response timeout" PROBLEMS: |
| 952 | On some hardwares, you may need to add a proper probe_mask option |
| 953 | to avoid the "azx_get_response timeout" problem above, instead. |
| 954 | This occurs when the access to non-existing or non-working codec slot |
| 955 | (likely a modem one) causes a stall of the communication via HD-audio |
| 956 | bus. You can see which codec slots are probed by enabling |
Takashi Iwai | 62cf872 | 2008-05-20 12:15:15 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 957 | CONFIG_SND_DEBUG_VERBOSE, or simply from the file name of the codec |
Takashi Iwai | 9590474 | 2007-05-19 17:06:42 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 958 | proc files. Then limit the slots to probe by probe_mask option. |
| 959 | For example, probe_mask=1 means to probe only the first slot, and |
| 960 | probe_mask=4 means only the third slot. |

| 1436 | Sony F250: buffer_top=0x25a800 |
| 1437 | Sony F270: buffer_top=0x272800 |
| 1438 | The driver supports only ac97 codec. It's possible to force |
| 1439 | to initialize/use ac97 although it's not detected. In such a |
| 1440 | case, use force_ac97=1 option - but *NO* guarantee whether it |
| 1441 | works! |
| 1442 | |
| 1443 | Note: The NM256 chip can be linked internally with non-AC97 |
| 1444 | codecs. This driver supports only the AC97 codec, and won't work |
| 1445 | with machines with other (most likely CS423x or OPL3SAx) chips, |
| 1446 | even though the device is detected in lspci. In such a case, try |
| 1447 | other drivers, e.g. snd-cs4232 or snd-opl3sa2. Some has ISA-PnP |
Takashi Iwai | 6243008 | 2005-09-05 17:12:29 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 1448 | but some doesn't have ISA PnP. You'll need to specify isapnp=0 |
Linus Torvalds | 1da177e | 2005-04-16 15:20:36 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 1449 | and proper hardware parameters in the case without ISA PnP. |
| 1450 | |
| 1451 | Note: some laptops need a workaround for AC97 RESET. For the |
| 1452 | known hardware like Dell Latitude LS and Sony PCG-F305, this |
| 1453 | workaround is enabled automatically. For other laptops with a |
| 1454 | hard freeze, you can try reset_workaround=1 option. |
| 1455 | |
Takashi Iwai | d1f38cf | 2005-10-19 16:04:27 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 1456 | Note: Dell Latitude CSx laptops have another problem regarding |
| 1457 | AC97 RESET. On these laptops, reset_workaround2 option is |
| 1458 | turned on as default. This option is worth to try if the |
| 1459 | previous reset_workaround option doesn't help. |
| 1460 | |
Linus Torvalds | 1da177e | 2005-04-16 15:20:36 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 1461 | Note: This driver is really crappy. It's a porting from the |
| 1462 | OSS driver, which is a result of black-magic reverse engineering. |
| 1463 | The detection of codec will fail if the driver is loaded *after* |
| 1464 | X-server as described above. You might be able to force to load |
| 1465 | the module, but it may result in hang-up. Hence, make sure that |
| 1466 | you load this module *before* X if you encounter this kind of |
| 1467 | problem. |

Takashi Iwai | c2b1239 | 2007-08-21 15:20:26 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 1794 | The below are options for wavefront_synth features: |
| 1795 | wf_raw - Assume that we need to boot the OS (default:no) |
| 1796 | If yes, then during driver loading, the state of the board is |
| 1797 | ignored, and we reset the board and load the firmware anyway. |
| 1798 | fx_raw - Assume that the FX process needs help (default:yes) |
| 1799 | If false, we'll leave the FX processor in whatever state it is |
| 1800 | when the driver is loaded. The default is to download the |
| 1801 | microprogram and associated coefficients to set it up for |
| 1802 | "default" operation, whatever that means. |
| 1803 | debug_default - Debug parameters for card initialization |
| 1804 | wait_usecs - How long to wait without sleeping, usecs |
| 1805 | (default:150) |
| 1806 | This magic number seems to give pretty optimal throughput |
| 1807 | based on my limited experimentation. |
| 1808 | If you want to play around with it and find a better value, be |
| 1809 | my guest. Remember, the idea is to get a number that causes us |
| 1810 | to just busy wait for as many WaveFront commands as possible, |
| 1811 | without coming up with a number so large that we hog the whole |
| 1812 | CPU. |
| 1813 | Specifically, with this number, out of about 134,000 status |
| 1814 | waits, only about 250 result in a sleep. |
| 1815 | sleep_interval - How long to sleep when waiting for reply |
| 1816 | (default: 100) |
| 1817 | sleep_tries - How many times to try sleeping during a wait |
| 1818 | (default: 50) |
| 1819 | ospath - Pathname to processed ICS2115 OS firmware |
| 1820 | (default:wavefront.os) |
| 1821 | The path name of the ISC2115 OS firmware. In the recent |
| 1822 | version, it's handled via firmware loader framework, so it |
| 1823 | must be installed in the proper path, typically, |
| 1824 | /lib/firmware. |
| 1825 | reset_time - How long to wait for a reset to take effect |
| 1826 | (default:2) |
| 1827 | ramcheck_time - How many seconds to wait for the RAM test |
| 1828 | (default:20) |

| 1830 | (default:10) |

| 2118 | ================= |
| 2119 | |
| 2120 | The ac97_quirk option is used to enable/override the workaround for |
| 2121 | specific devices on drivers for on-board AC'97 controllers like |
| 2122 | snd-intel8x0. Some hardware have swapped output pins between Master |
| 2123 | and Headphone, or Surround (thanks to confusion of AC'97 |
| 2124 | specifications from version to version :-) |
| 2125 | |
| 2126 | The driver provides the auto-detection of known problematic devices, |
| 2127 | but some might be unknown or wrongly detected. In such a case, pass |
| 2128 | the proper value with this option. |
| 2129 | |
| 2130 | The following strings are accepted: |
| 2131 | - default Don't override the default setting |
Takashi Iwai | 10e4097f | 2005-11-17 11:04:55 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 2132 | - none Disable the quirk |
Takashi Iwai | 6243008 | 2005-09-05 17:12:29 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 2133 | - hp_only Bind Master and Headphone controls as a single control |
| 2134 | - swap_hp Swap headphone and master controls |
| 2135 | - swap_surround Swap master and surround controls |
| 2136 | - ad_sharing For AD1985, turn on OMS bit and use headphone |
| 2137 | - alc_jack For ALC65x, turn on the jack sense mode |
| 2138 | - inv_eapd Inverted EAPD implementation |
| 2139 | - mute_led Bind EAPD bit for turning on/off mute LED |
| 2140 | |
| 2141 | For backward compatibility, the corresponding integer value -1, 0, |
| 2142 | ... are accepted, too. |
| 2143 | |
| 2144 | For example, if "Master" volume control has no effect on your device |
| 2145 | but only "Headphone" does, pass ac97_quirk=hp_only module option. |

| 2149 | ============================ |
| 2150 | |
| 2151 | When the kernel is configured with ISA-PnP support, the modules |
| 2152 | supporting the isapnp cards will have module options "isapnp". |
| 2153 | If this option is set, *only* the ISA-PnP devices will be probed. |
| 2154 | For probing the non ISA-PnP cards, you have to pass "isapnp=0" option |
| 2155 | together with the proper i/o and irq configuration. |
| 2156 | |
| 2157 | When the kernel is configured without ISA-PnP support, isapnp option |
| 2158 | will be not built in. |
| 2159 | |
| 2160 | |
| 2161 | Module Autoloading Support |
| 2162 | ========================== |
| 2163 | |
| 2164 | The ALSA drivers can be loaded automatically on demand by defining |
| 2165 | module aliases. The string 'snd-card-%1' is requested for ALSA native |
| 2166 | devices where %i is sound card number from zero to seven. |
| 2167 | |
| 2168 | To auto-load an ALSA driver for OSS services, define the string |
| 2169 | 'sound-slot-%i' where %i means the slot number for OSS, which |
| 2170 | corresponds to the card index of ALSA. Usually, define this |
Tobias Klauser | d533f67 | 2005-09-10 00:26:46 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 2171 | as the same card module. |

| 2179 | The available number of auto-loaded sound cards depends on the module |
| 2180 | option "cards_limit" of snd module. As default it's set to 1. |
| 2181 | To enable the auto-loading of multiple cards, specify the number of |
| 2182 | sound cards in that option. |
| 2183 | |
| 2184 | When multiple cards are available, it'd better to specify the index |
| 2185 | number for each card via module option, too, so that the order of |
| 2186 | cards is kept consistent. |
| 2187 | |
| 2188 | An example configuration for two sound cards is like below: |

| 2202 | In this example, the interwave card is always loaded as the first card |
| 2203 | (index 0) and ens1371 as the second (index 1). |
| 2204 | |
Takashi Iwai | 304cd07 | 2007-10-26 15:10:15 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 2205 | Alternative (and new) way to fixate the slot assignment is to use |
| 2206 | "slots" option of snd module. In the case above, specify like the |
| 2207 | following: |
| 2208 | |
| 2209 | options snd slots=snd-interwave,snd-ens1371 |
| 2210 | |
| 2211 | Then, the first slot (#0) is reserved for snd-interwave driver, and |
| 2212 | the second (#1) for snd-ens1371. You can omit index option in each |
| 2213 | driver if slots option is used (although you can still have them at |
| 2214 | the same time as long as they don't conflict). |
| 2215 | |
| 2216 | The slots option is especially useful for avoiding the possible |
| 2217 | hot-plugging and the resultant slot conflict. For example, in the |
| 2218 | case above again, the first two slots are already reserved. If any |
| 2219 | other driver (e.g. snd-usb-audio) is loaded before snd-interwave or |
| 2220 | snd-ens1371, it will be assigned to the third or later slot. |
| 2221 | |
Takashi Iwai | a93bbaa | 2008-05-27 17:59:24 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 2222 | When a module name is given with '!', the slot will be given for any |
| 2223 | modules but that name. For example, "slots=!snd-pcsp" will reserve |
| 2224 | the first slot for any modules but snd-pcsp. |

| 2239 | |
| 2240 | The first number from /dev/snd/pcmC{X}D{Y}[c|p] expression means |
| 2241 | sound card number and second means device number. The ALSA devices |
| 2242 | have either 'c' or 'p' suffix indicating the direction, capture and |
| 2243 | playback, respectively. |
| 2244 | |
| 2245 | Please note that the device mapping above may be varied via the module |
| 2246 | options of snd-pcm-oss module. |

| 2259 | <fragment_size> - size of fragment in bytes or zero if auto |
| 2260 | <options> - optional parameters |
| 2261 | - disable the application tries to open a pcm device for |
| 2262 | this channel but does not want to use it. |
| 2263 | (Cause a bug or mmap needs) |
| 2264 | It's good for Quake etc... |
| 2265 | - direct don't use plugins |
| 2266 | - block force block mode (rvplayer) |
| 2267 | - non-block force non-block mode |
| 2268 | - whole-frag write only whole fragments (optimization affecting |
| 2269 | playback only) |
| 2270 | - no-silence do not fill silence ahead to avoid clicks |

| 2280 | ======================= |
| 2281 | |
| 2282 | Some drivers (e.g. hdsp) require the large contiguous buffers, and |
| 2283 | sometimes it's too late to find such spaces when the driver module is |
| 2284 | actually loaded due to memory fragmentation. You can pre-allocate the |
| 2285 | PCM buffers by loading snd-page-alloc module and write commands to its |
| 2286 | proc file in prior, for example, in the early boot stage like |
| 2287 | /etc/init.d/*.local scripts. |
| 2288 | |
| 2289 | Reading the proc file /proc/drivers/snd-page-alloc shows the current |
| 2290 | usage of page allocation. In writing, you can send the following |
| 2291 | commands to the snd-page-alloc driver: |
| 2292 | |
| 2293 | - add VENDOR DEVICE MASK SIZE BUFFERS |
| 2294 | |
| 2295 | VENDOR and DEVICE are PCI vendor and device IDs. They take |
| 2296 | integer numbers (0x prefix is needed for the hex). |
| 2297 | MASK is the PCI DMA mask. Pass 0 if not restricted. |
| 2298 | SIZE is the size of each buffer to allocate. You can pass |
| 2299 | k and m suffix for KB and MB. The max number is 16MB. |
| 2300 | BUFFERS is the number of buffers to allocate. It must be greater |
| 2301 | than 0. The max number is 4. |
| 2302 | |
| 2303 | - erase |
| 2304 | |
| 2305 | This will erase the all pre-allocated buffers which are not in |
| 2306 | use. |
