Hello all,
ALSA 1.0.5 release is available for download.
Jaroslav
Changes:
* alsa-driver
- use the new module_param*() functions
- clean up of power-management codes
- removed superfluous warning messages after pci_module_init()
- fixed the allocation of coherent DMA pages under 32bit mask
- added early event flag and code to the timer interface
- added experimental emu10k1x driver
- added snd-atiixp-modem driver for ATI IXP modem (experimental)
- sequencer
- export snd_seq_set_queue_tempo() for OSS to prevent calling
snd_seq_kernel_client_ctl() (using copy_from_user()) in interrupt
context
- PCM midlevel
- fixed the deadlock of power_lock in suspend
- fixed the bit width of IEC958_SUBFRAME_* formats from 24 to 32

- added the support of Aureon 7.1-Universe
- improved the description of ice1724 driver on Kconfig.
- better support of VT1720 with snd-ice1724 driver.
- check PCI subsystem IDs when no EEPROM is available (ice1724 only)
- change the driver name string if given in the board list.
- merged prodigy 7.1 support into aureon.c. they are almost identical.
- allow to use PDMA4 and RMDA1 for non-SPDIF purpose if specified (ice1724 only).
- avoid to change the AC97 rate registers
- USB audio
- Edirol UA-700 advanced modes support
- Roland UA-1000 support
- Opti9xx
- fixed irq&dma initialization for <93x chips
- opl3sa2
- added YMH0801 ISA PnP ID - OPL3-SA2

- HDSP
- HDSP9632 has also firmware version 0x97
- nm256
- added a blacklist to avoid the possible hang-up at module loading
- cmipci
- dropped the software encoding of AC3 stream in the driver (moved to alsa-lib)
- AC97 codec
- detection for S/PDIF rates
- fix access to wrong register when clearing powerdown bits
- show AC'97 2.3 information in proc file
- fix AC'97 revision bits on AD1985
- added the write support to ac97#x-x+regs proc file (DEBUG)
- fixed AD18xx PCM bit handling
- stac9758 initialization fixes
- STAC9758: stereo mutes, jack configuration
- added the global mutex for ac97_t (ad18xx mutex is removed).
used to protect paging and AD18xx multi-codecs.
- set PAGE_INT register explicitly before accessing (for STAC9758).
- moved ALC650 revision check to patch_alc650().
- support stereo Mic playback.
- moved STAC9708 quirk to patch_stac9708().
- don't clear PC_BEEP high bits (ac97 2.3 sets frequency there).
- avoid the unnecessary RESET-waiting for audio/modem codec.
- fixed the evaluation of modem codec to call mpatch callback properly.
- determine the SPDIF rate in the build path.
- added suffix argument to snd_ac97_rename|remove|swap_ctl().
- added snd_ac97_rename_vol_ctl().
- Added the single mixer control with AC97 2.3 paging.
- Handle the paging for some ALC655/658 registers.
