ALSA IEC 61883-1/6 packet streaming engine uses pre-computed parameters
ideal for nominal sampling transfer frequency (STF) to transfer packets
to device since it was added 2011. As a result of user experience for a
decade, it is clear that the sequence is not suitable to some actual
devices. It takes the devices to generate noise, and causes any type of
discontinuity in the series of packet transferred from the device. It's
required for the engine to transfer packets according to effective STF.
The effective STF is given by media clock recovered by the sequence of
packet transferred from the target device. In the previous commit, the
sequence is already cached. The media clock recovery can be achieved by
analyzing the sequence.
In technological world, many ideas are proposed for media clock recovery.
However, the small part of them could be actually adopted in our case
since floating point arithmetic is not mostly available in Linux kernel
land.
This commit adopts the simple way from them; sequence replay, which means
that the sequence of parameters from incoming packet is used as is to
transfer outgoing packets. The media clock is not computed internally,
but the sequence of outgoing packet superficially looks to be generated by
the media clock.
The association between source and destination is decided when starting
AMDTP domain. When the target device supports a pair of isochronous packet
streams, the tx stream is source and the rx stream is destination. When it
supports two pair of streams, each of tx stream is associated to
corresponding rx stream in its order. When it supports less number of tx
streams than rx streams, the fist tx stream is selected for all of rx
streams. When it supports more tx streams than rx streams, the first tx
packet is associated to the rx stream.
As I noted in previous commit, the sequence of parameters from incoming
packet is different between devices, time to time. It is worse idea to
replay the sequence of parameters from a device for the sequence of
packet to the other devices even if they are in the same category of
device.

In design of audio and music unit in IEEE 1394 bus, feedback of
effective sampling transfer frequency (STF) is delivered by packets
transferred from device. The devices supported by ALSA firewire stack
are categorized to three groups regarding to it.
* Group 1:
* Echo Audio Fireworks board module
* Oxford Semiconductor OXFW971 ASIC
* Digidesign Digi00x family
* Tascam FireWire series
* RME Fireface series
* Group 2:
* BridgeCo. DM1000/DM1100/DM1500 ASICs for BeBoB solution
* TC Applied Technologies DICE ASICs
* Group 3:
* Mark of the Unicord FireWire series
In group 1, the effective STF is determined by the sequence of the number
of events per packet. In group 2, the sequence of presentation timestamp
expressed in syt field of CIP header is interpreted as well. In group 3,
the presentation timestamp is expressed in source packet header (SPH) of
each data block.
I note that some models doesn't take care of effective STF with large
internal buffer. It's reasonable to name it as group 0:
* Group 0
* Oxford Semiconductor OXFW970 ASIC
The effective STF is known to be slightly different from nominal STF for
all of devices, and to be different between the devices. Furthermore, the
effective STF is known to be shifted for long-period transmission. This
makes it hard for software to satisfy the effective STF when processing
packets to the device.
The effective STF is deterministic as a result of analyzing the batch of
packet transferred from the device. For the analysis, caching the sequence
of parameter in the packet is required.
This commit adds an option so that AMDTP domain structure takes AMDTP
stream structure to cache the sequence of parameters in packet transferred
from the device. The parameters are offset ticks of syt field against the
cycle to receive the packet and the number of data blocks per packet.

The tasklet is an old API that should be deprecated, usually can be
converted to another decent API. In FireWire driver, a tasklet is
still used for offloading the AMDTP PCM stream handling. It can be
achieved gracefully with a work queued, too.
This patch replaces the tasklet usage in firewire-lib driver with a
simple work. The conversion is fairly straightforward but for the
in_interrupt() checks that are replaced with the check using the
current_work().
Note that in_interrupt() in amdtp_packet tracepoint is still kept as
is. This is the place that is probed by both softirq of 1394 OHCI and
a user task of a PCM application, and the work handling is already
filtered in amdtp_domain_stream_pcm_pointer().

This commit changes AMDTP domain to run on an IT context of 1394 OHCI as
IRQ target. No hardware interrupt is scheduled for the other isoc

context of IRQ target.
The IRQ target is automatically selected from a list of AMDTP streams,
thus users of AMDTP domain should add an AMDTP stream for IT context
at least.
The reason to select IT context as IRQ target is that the IT context
runs on local 1394 OHCI controller and it can be used as reliable,
constant IRQ generator. On the other hand, IR context can include skip

In IEC 61883-1/6, one isoc packet can transfer events up to the value of
syt interval. This comes from the interval of isoc cycle. As 1394 OHCI
controller can generate hardware IRQ per isoc packet, the interval is
calculated as 125 usec.
In IEC 61883-1/6, two ways of transmission is described; blocking and
non-blocking methods. In blocking method, the sequence of packet includes
'empty' or 'NODATA' packets which include no events. In non-blocking
method, the number of events per packet is variable up to the syt
interval.
