Most of HD-audio controller have a snoop control, but the recent AMD HDMI audio controller don't have the feature, thus the driver must use the non-cached pages. At least, PCI ID 1002:aaa0, aaa8 and aab0 are known to require such. Now the question is whether all new chips above (aa50,...) require the same workaround, too. Could you check this or forward the inquiry to someone in AMD? FWIW, such a chip needs to set AZX_DRIVER_ATIHDMI_NS bits in driver_data of pci entries in sound/pci/hda/hda_intel.c. thanks, Takashi ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ October Webinars: Code for Performance Free Intel webinars can help you accelerate application performance.
