[PATCH v33 04/18] ALSA: pcm: notify drivers after linked prepare completes

From: Joonho Lee via B4 Relay

Date: Fri Nov 13 2026 - 05:12:53 EST


From: Joonho Lee <mynameisjune111@xxxxxxxxx>

A linked prepare can finish one member before another member's driver
prepare or reset fails. Drivers that admit transfers after their own
prepare callback can then accept an ACK while the group action is still
incomplete.

Add an optional prepare_complete callback. After all sleeping prepare
and reset actions have succeeded, take the group and member PCM locks,
publish every PREPARED state, and notify opted-in drivers before
releasing those locks. Keep the buffer locks and access gates held
throughout the operation. A concurrent DROP observes the group before or
after this commit point.

On a driver error, notify only the attempted prefix, including the
failing member. On any revoked prepare, opted-in members in the affected
prefix or group return to SETUP. Preserve DISCONNECTED members and keep
SUSPENDED members suspended, but set both saved suspended-state fields
to SETUP so a later prepare can recover. Leave unreached members
untouched after a driver error. Preflight failures have no completion
callback. A successful driver action canceled by a terminal state
returns -ESTRPIPE or -EBADFD, respectively. A driver error keeps its
original return value. DISCONNECTED takes precedence when a linked group
contains both terminal states.

Do not generate a stop-timer event while closing prepare admission.
Ordinary legacy drivers keep their existing successful preparation and
pointer rebasing. The new callback runs with the group and member locks
held and must neither sleep nor acquire another PCM stream lock.
