Linux 用户空间应用程序通过声卡驱动程序（一般牵涉到多个设备驱动程序）和 Linux 内核 ALSA 框架导出的 PCM 设备文件，如 /dev/snd/pcmC0D0c 和 /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p 等，与 Linux 内核音频设备驱动程序和音频硬件进行数据传递。PCM 设备文件的文件操作定义 (位于 sound/core/pcm_native.c) 如下：
const struct file_operations snd_pcm_f_ops[2] = {
{
.owner = THIS_MODULE,
.write = snd_pcm_write,
.write_iter = snd_pcm_writev,
.open = snd_pcm_playback_open,

.poll = snd_pcm_poll,
.unlocked_ioctl = snd_pcm_ioctl,
.compat_ioctl = snd_pcm_ioctl_compat,

};
大多数情况下，音频设备会同时提供播放和录制功能，用于播放和录制的 PCM 设备文件是一起导出的，播放和录制的 PCM 设备文件的文件操作也是一起定义的，其中索引为 SNDRV_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK，也就是 0 的文件操作用于播放，索引为 SNDRV_PCM_STREAM_CAPTURE，也就是 1 的文件操作用于录制。

EXPORT_SYMBOL(__snd_pcm_lib_xfer);
__snd_pcm_lib_xfer() 函数的执行过程如下：
-
调用
pcm_sanity_check()函数执行合理性检查，pcm_sanity_check()函数检查 DMA buffer 和状态。音频设备驱动程序需要保证，在__snd_pcm_lib_xfer()函数执行时，DMA buffer 已经准备好。 -
根据传入的参数，即数据格式是 interleaved 还是 noninterleaved，播放还是录制，数据缓冲区是否为空，操作是由内核空间代码发起还是由用户空间代码发起等，选择
writer和transfer操作。writer和transfer操作主要用于在传入的数据缓冲区和 DMA buffer 之间传递数据。 -
检查
runtime的状态，当状态不为SNDRV_PCM_STATE_PREPARED、SNDRV_PCM_STATE_RUNNING和SNDRV_PCM_STATE_PAUSED时，报错并返回。 -
当
runtime状态为SNDRV_PCM_STATE_RUNNING时，调用snd_pcm_update_hw_ptr(substream)函数更新 hw_ptr。 -
对于音频录制，如果
runtime状态为SNDRV_PCM_STATE_PREPARED，且请求录制的帧数超过发起阈值，则调用snd_pcm_start(substream)函数触发录制。 -
调用
snd_pcm_avail(substream)函数获得 DMA buffer 中以帧为单位的可用空间大小。
用户空间应用程序和 Linux 内核设备驱动程序对 DMA buffer 的访问是典型的读者-写者模型。对于播放来说，用户空间应用程序向 DMA buffer 写入数据，Linux 内核设备驱动程序从 DMA buffer 读取数据并发送给硬件设备。对于录制来说，Linux 内核设备驱动程序从硬件设备获得数据并写入 DMA buffer，用户空间应用程序从 DMA buffer 读取数据并作进一步处理。
这里的可用空间大小是站在用户空间应用程序的视角来说的，即对于播放来说，可用空间大小指还可以向 DMA buffer 写入的数据量，对于录制来说，则指可以从 DMA buffer 读取的数据量。 -
通过一个循环，处理所有的数据传递请求。
(1). 当 DMA buffer 的可用空间为 0 时，则等待直到可用空间大于 0。
(2). 计算拷贝的数据量大小，拷贝的目的内存在 DMA buffer 中的位置等。
(3). 调用writer和transfer操作在 DMA buffer 和传入的缓冲区之间传递数据，appl_ofs作为hwoff参数传给writer操作。
(4). 检查runtime的状态。
(5). 更新并调用pcm_lib_apply_appl_ptr()函数应用新的 appl_ptr。
(6). 根据传递的帧数，更新偏移量、要传递的帧数、已经传递的帧数和 DMA buffer 中可用的空间大小。
(7). 对于音频播放，如果runtime状态为SNDRV_PCM_STATE_PREPARED，且 DMA buffer 中可以播放的数据量超过发起阈值，则调用snd_pcm_start(substream)函数触发播放。

transfer 操作用于执行数据拷贝。根据发起数据传递的来源是内核还是用户空间应用程序，以及是播放还是录制，transfer 操作有四个默认实现，分别为 default_write_copy_kernel()、default_read_copy_kernel()、default_write_copy() 和 default_read_copy()，这几个函数根据 channel 和 hwoff 通过 get_dma_ptr() 函数获得 DMA 指针，并通过内核提供的 copy_from_user()、memcpy() 和 copy_to_user() 等函数在传入的数据缓冲区和 DMA buffer 之间传递数据。
从 get_dma_ptr() 函数可以看到，当数据格式为 noninterleaved 时，在 DMA buffer 中，各个 channel 的数据的布局。
writer 操作用于为数据拷贝做准备，它将帧为单位的偏移量和大小等数据拷贝参数转为以字节为单位，并调用 transfer 操作执行数据拷贝。writer 操作有两个默认实现，分别为 interleaved_copy() 和 noninterleaved_copy()。当数据格式为 noninterleaved 时，writer 操作分别拷贝各个 channel 的数据，传入的音频数据保存在多个不同的缓冲区中，每个通道一个，音频数据通过指针数组的方式传递。
writer 和 transfer 操作中用到的指向 DMA buffer 的 hwoff 偏移量，由 runtime->control->appl_ptr 计算而来，在关于 DMA buffer 访问的读者-写者模型中，对于播放，runtime->control->appl_ptr 是写指针，对于录制，它是读指针。
snd_pcm_avail() 函数用于获得 DMA buffer 中，用户空间应用程序视角的，以帧为单位的可用空间大小，Linux 内核还提供了另一个函数 snd_pcm_hw_avail()，用于获得音频硬件设备驱动视角的，以帧为单位的可用空间大小，这两个函数定义 (位于 sound/core/pcm_local.h) 如下：

这两个函数根据流的类型是播放还是录制，将操作分派给另外四个函数 snd_pcm_playback_avail()、snd_pcm_capture_avail()、snd_pcm_playback_hw_avail() 和 snd_pcm_capture_hw_avail()。snd_pcm_playback_avail() 等函数定义 (位于 include/sound/pcm.h) 如下：
/**
* snd_pcm_playback_avail - Get the available (writable) space for playback
* @runtime: PCM runtime instance
*
* Result is between 0 ... (boundary - 1)
*/
static inline snd_pcm_uframes_t snd_pcm_playback_avail(struct snd_pcm_runtime *runtime)
{
snd_pcm_sframes_t avail = runtime->status->hw_ptr + runtime->buffer_size - runtime->control->appl_ptr;
if (avail < 0)
avail += runtime->boundary;
else if ((snd_pcm_uframes_t) avail >= runtime->boundary)
avail -= runtime->boundary;
return avail;
}
/**
* snd_pcm_capture_avail - Get the available (readable) space for capture
* @runtime: PCM runtime instance
*
* Result is between 0 ... (boundary - 1)
*/
static inline snd_pcm_uframes_t snd_pcm_capture_avail(struct snd_pcm_runtime *runtime)
{
snd_pcm_sframes_t avail = runtime->status->hw_ptr - runtime->control->appl_ptr;
if (avail < 0)
avail += runtime->boundary;
return avail;
}
/**
* snd_pcm_playback_hw_avail - Get the queued space for playback
* @runtime: PCM runtime instance
*/
static inline snd_pcm_sframes_t snd_pcm_playback_hw_avail(struct snd_pcm_runtime *runtime)
{
return runtime->buffer_size - snd_pcm_playback_avail(runtime);
}
/**
* snd_pcm_capture_hw_avail - Get the free space for capture
* @runtime: PCM runtime instance
*/
static inline snd_pcm_sframes_t snd_pcm_capture_hw_avail(struct snd_pcm_runtime *runtime)
{
return runtime->buffer_size - snd_pcm_capture_avail(runtime);
}
关于 DMA buffer 访问的读者-写者模型中，对于播放，runtime->status->hw_ptr 是读指针，(runtime->control->appl_ptr - runtime->status->hw_ptr) 是已经写入，但还未播放的数据量，对于录制，runtime->status->hw_ptr 是写指针。
__snd_pcm_lib_xfer() 函数调用 snd_pcm_start() 函数触发数据传递开始执行，这个函数定义 (位于 sound/core/pcm_native.c) 如下：文章来源：https://www.toymoban.com/news/detail-631201.html
/*
* start callbacks
*/
static int snd_pcm_pre_start(struct snd_pcm_substream *substream,
snd_pcm_state_t state)
{
struct snd_pcm_runtime *runtime = substream->runtime;
if (runtime->status->state != SNDRV_PCM_STATE_PREPARED)
return -EBADFD;
if (substream->stream == SNDRV_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK &&
!snd_pcm_playback_data(substream))
return -EPIPE;
runtime->trigger_tstamp_latched = false;
runtime->trigger_master = substream;
return 0;
}
static int snd_pcm_do_start(struct snd_pcm_substream *substream,
snd_pcm_state_t state)
{
if (substream->runtime->trigger_master != substream)
return 0;
return substream->ops->trigger(substream, SNDRV_PCM_TRIGGER_START);
}
static void snd_pcm_undo_start(struct snd_pcm_substream *substream,
snd_pcm_state_t state)
{
if (substream->runtime->trigger_master == substream)
substream->ops->trigger(substream, SNDRV_PCM_TRIGGER_STOP);
}
static void snd_pcm_post_start(struct snd_pcm_substream *substream,
snd_pcm_state_t state)
{
struct snd_pcm_runtime *runtime = substream->runtime;
snd_pcm_trigger_tstamp(substream);
runtime->hw_ptr_jiffies = jiffies;
runtime->hw_ptr_buffer_jiffies = (runtime->buffer_size * HZ) /
runtime->rate;
runtime->status->state = state;
if (substream->stream == SNDRV_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK &&
runtime->silence_size > 0)
snd_pcm_playback_silence(substream, ULONG_MAX);
snd_pcm_timer_notify(substream, SNDRV_TIMER_EVENT_MSTART);
}
static const struct action_ops snd_pcm_action_start = {
.pre_action = snd_pcm_pre_start,
.do_action = snd_pcm_do_start,
.undo_action = snd_pcm_undo_start,
.post_action = snd_pcm_post_start
};
/**
* snd_pcm_start - start all linked streams
* @substream: the PCM substream instance
*
* Return: Zero if successful, or a negative error code.
* The stream lock must be acquired before calling this function.
*/
int snd_pcm_start(struct snd_pcm_substream *substream)
{
return snd_pcm_action(&snd_pcm_action_start, substream,
SNDRV_PCM_STATE_RUNNING);
}
