First, open /dev/amdtp, use the + * ioctl to configure format, rate, dimension and either plug or + * channel, then start writing samples. + * + * The formats supported by the driver are listed below. + * AMDTP_FORMAT_RAW corresponds to the AM824 raw format, which can + * carry any number of channels, so use this if you're streaming + * multichannel audio. The AMDTP_FORMAT_IEC958_PCM corresponds to the + * AM824 IEC958 encapsulation without the IEC958 data bit set, using + * AMDTP_FORMAT_IEC958_AC3 will transmit the samples with the data bit + * set, suitable for transmitting compressed AC-3 audio. + * + * The rate field specifies the transmission rate; supported values + * are 32000, 44100, 48000, 88200, 96000, 176400 and 192000. + * + * The dimension field specifies the dimension of the signal, that is, + * the number of audio channels. Only AMDTP_FORMAT_RAW supports + * settings greater than 2. + * + * The mode field specifies which transmission mode to use. The AMDTP + * specifies two different transmission modes: blocking and + * non-blocking. The blocking transmission mode always send a fixed + * number of samples, typically 8, 16 or 32. To exactly match the + * transmission rate, the driver alternates between sending empty and + * non-empty packets. In non-blocking mode, the driver transmits as + * small packets as possible. For example, for a transmission rate of + * 44100Hz, the driver should send 5 41/80 samples in every cycle, but + * this is not possible so instead the driver alternates between + * sending 5 and 6 samples. + * + * The last thing to specify is either the isochronous channel to use + * or the output plug to connect to. If you know what channel the + * destination device will listen on, you can specify the channel + * directly and use the AMDTP_IOC_CHANNEL ioctl. However, if the + * destination device chooses the channel and uses the IEC61883-1 plug + * mechanism, you can specify an output plug to connect to. The + * driver will pick up the channel number from the plug once the + * destination device locks the output plug control register. In this + * case set the plug field and use the AMDTP_IOC_PLUG ioctl. + * + * Having configured the interface, the driver now accepts writes of + * regular 16 bit signed little endian samples, with the channels + * interleaved. For example, 4 channels would look like: + * + * | sample 0 | sample 1 ... + * | ch. 0 | ch. 1 | ch. 2 | ch. 3 | ch. 0 | ... + * | lsb | msb | lsb | msb | lsb | msb | lsb | msb | lsb | msb | ... + * + */ + +enum { + AMDTP_FORMAT_RAW, + AMDTP_FORMAT_IEC958_PCM, + AMDTP_FORMAT_IEC958_AC3 +}; + +enum { + AMDTP_MODE_BLOCKING, + AMDTP_MODE_NON_BLOCKING, +}; + +enum { + AMDTP_INPUT_LE16, + AMDTP_INPUT_BE16, +}; + +struct amdtp_ioctl { + __u32 format; + __u32 rate; + __u32 dimension; + __u32 mode; + union { __u32 channel; __u32 plug; } u; +}; + +#endif /* __AMDTP_H */ |
