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.

The latest development version of SDL is available via CVS: cvs -d :pserver:guest@libsdl.org:/home/slouken/libsdl.org/cvs login # No password, so just hit enter when prompted for a password cvs -d :pserver:guest@libsdl.org:/home/slouken/libsdl.org/cvs checkout SDL When you check a fresh copy of SDL out of CVS, you need to generate the files used by make by running the "autogen.sh" script, which will run aclocal, automake, autoconf and then run configure. There is a web interface to cvs at http://www.libsdl.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi
