[linux-audio-dev] jack_callback <-> rest of the world

[Richard Spindler]

Hi,

I have two questions concerning the jack callback,

1. what is the preferred way of feeding data from disk to the callback?

Is there a general design pattern agreed upon? Best Practices?

2. What is the preferred way to notify the non-realtime thread that
something happened in the jack-callback?

A condition variable? How to avoid blocking? How do you do it?

I read the tutorial at http://userpages.umbc.edu/~berman3/ , it uses
mutex+condition, is it okay to do this? Are there better ways?

thx
