From bea29e9f2ea6061abc212809090548cba6d64081 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Volker=20R=C3=BCmelin?= Date: Sun, 10 Jan 2021 11:02:29 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] paaudio: avoid to clip samples multiple times MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The pulseaudio backend currently converts, clips and copies audio playback samples in the mixing-engine sample buffer multiple times. In qpa_get_buffer_out() the function pa_stream_begin_write() returns a rather large buffer and this allows audio_pcm_hw_run_out() in audio/audio.c to copy all samples in the mixing-engine buffer to the pulse audio buffer. Immediately after copying, qpa_write() notices with a call to pa_stream_writable_size() that pulse audio only needs a smaller part of the copied samples and ignores the rest. This copy and ignore process happens several times for each audio sample. To fix this behaviour, call pa_stream_writable_size() in qpa_get_buffer_out() to limit the number of samples audio_pcm_hw_run_out() will convert. With this change the pulseaudio pcm_ops functions put_buffer_out and write are no longer identical and a separate qpa_put_buffer_out is needed.
