Editors Note: The original patch was modified to use SDL_Delay() instead of
nanosleep because nanosleep may not be portable to all systems
using SDL with the ALSA backend. This may be a moot point with
the switch to blocking writes anyway...

Subject: [SDL] Bug#225252: [PATCH] ALSA fixes
Package: libsdl1.2debian-all
Version: 1.2.6-2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
For SDL 1.2.6, the ALSA backend was changed to call snd_pcm_open() with
SND_PCM_NONBLOCK. That's a good idea per se, however, it causes high CPU
usage, interrupted sound and stuttering in some games here. Taking a nanosleep
whenever snd_pcm_writei() returns -EAGAIN fixes this, but I think it's more
efficient to use blocking mode for the actual sound playback. Feedback from the
SDL and ALSA lists appreciated.
The patch also fixes the default ALSA device to be used.

This is the porting of 1.2.0 version of SDL (the latest stable one) to AmigaOS/68k. All the bugs known of the past version have been corrected. And I've added all the new SDL features. This version of SDL needs Cybergraphx V3 (r69+) or CyberGraphX V4 and AHI v3+. Probably it works also with P96 or CGXAga, but it's untested. This version is available as linked library for SAS/C and GCC, only 68k this time, a powerup (ppcemu compatible) and a morphos version will be ready quite soon (i hope). Implemented: - 8/16/24/32bit video modes, both fullscreen and windowed. - Hardware surfaces. - CGX blitting acceleration. - CGX colorkey blitting acceleration. - AHI audio (8/16 bit, with any audio format), always uses unit 0 for now. - Thread support (maybe not 100% compatible with other implementations) - Semaphores - Window resizing and backdrop windows (NEW) - Joystick/Joypad support. To do: - CDRom audio playing support - OpenGL (A guy was working on it but I've lost his tracks :( ) The SAS/C library is distributed with debug info attached, to strip debug info simply add STRIPDEBUG argument to the linker. NOTE: SDL includes debug output using kprintf, to disable it add to your project a function like this: void kprintf(char *a,...) { } Otherwise you can redirect the debug to a console window with sushi, sashimi or similar tools (the default output is the internal serial port). For info, support, bugfix and other feel free to mail me: Gabriele Greco (gabriele.greco@aruba.it) You can find also a small SDL Amiga page at: http://ggreco.interfree.it/sdl.html
