I see now, yes I agree the white noise can be very painfull. I will
think about how it can happen, but I'm bit dry as of now in the sense
that I forward what I receive from LMS after having done a bit of
endianness change or byte packing, but I'm only processing an amount of
bytes that is a multiple of channels*bytes_per_sample. In case LMS stops
sending bytes and if there is a 'wrong' number of remaining bytes in the
buffer, they will not be processed until LMS feeds sq2u again or stops
the whole process. At this point I cannot think of a case where things
would go wrong and I could detect that automatically. That's the issue
with pcm, these are just bytes, no checksum, nothing to assess if they
are right or wrong - any other method to check validity would be prone
to a lot of false alarm. I'll continue thinking about a potential defect
case (apart from LMS sending random data)
