2019-03-18audio/paaudio: prolong and make latency configurableMartin Schrodt
The latency of a connection to the PulseAudio server is determined by the tlength parameter. This was hardcoded to 10ms, which is a bit too tight on my machine, causing audio on host and guest to malfunction. A setting of 15ms works fine here. To allow tweaking, I also made the setting configurable via the new -audiodev config. This allows to squeeze out better timings in scenarios where the emulation allows it. I also removed setting of the minreq parameter to (seemingly arbitrary) half the latency, since it showed worse audio quality during my tests. Allowing PulseAudio to request smaller chunks helped.

2019-03-11qapi: qapi for audio backendsKővágó, Zoltán
This patch adds structures into qapi to replace the existing configuration structures used by audio backends currently. This qapi will be the base of the -audiodev command line parameter (that replaces the old environment variables based config). This is not a 1:1 translation of the old options, I've tried to make them much more consistent (e.g. almost every backend had an option to specify buffer size, but the name was different for every backend, and some backends required usecs, while some other required frames, samples or bytes). Also tried to reduce the number of abbreviations used by the config keys. Some of the more important changes: * use `in` and `out` instead of `ADC` and `DAC`, as the former is more user friendly imho * moved buffer settings into the global setting area (so it's the same for all backends that support it. Backends that can't change buffer size will simply ignore them). Also using usecs, as it's probably more user friendly than samples or bytes. * try-poll is now an alsa backend specific option (as all other backends currently ignore it) Signed-off-by: Kővágó, Zoltán <DirtY.iCE.hu@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com> Message-id: 5461b514dbf3e0bc31b0abb6498a9b3a008c271e.1552083282.git.DirtY.iCE.hu@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@redhat.com>
