One thing I forgot to mention in the other email is the high cost of buying devices just so one can develop a driver. In theory, one should be able to use 2 Linux computers, one of them at least having an i210 ethernet card (or similar). But any real test of code would have to include using it with a commercially available aes67 device. This seems to also be the biggest problem with todays ALSA code. Firewire is supposed to be supported in ALSA now but the performance (if the kernel module will even load) is very poor... but the ALSA developers don't have the devices they are building for. Even the ALSA drivers for USB 2.0, while working, have various anomalies that basically force the buyer of expensive USB devices to work at 256 sample buffer sizes and above while still encountering dropouts, pops and other troubles.
