I think this bug has now been fixed upstream: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=a2418fc4a13b5da8d007a038c0a6a50a54edfabd Could somebody please backport that patch to the Ubuntu 14.04 kernel?

I just installed Ubuntu 9.04 on my G4 Silver PowerMac, with vmlinux-2.6.28-6-powerpc kernel (NOT the smp version!), And yes, sound is working completely right again.

[Bug 87652] Re: No sound in linux-image-2.6.20-8-powerpc G4
Hi Scott! All i can say that sound is now working quite good on my system again with that patch. I don't have a second Mac for testing, and I am also new to this kernel stuff, so I don't have a clue what could cause these plopping noises on your system. There is a disabled printk line in the snd_pmac_pcm_dead_xfer function. You could enable that line, recompile and then "tail -F /var/log/messages" to see how often the DMA transfers die on your system. If they die very often, this might be the cause. -- No sound in linux-image-2.6.20-8-powerpc G4 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/87652 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Dave! > Thanks so much for fixing this! Would you mind telling me how the dmasound_awacs.c fix came to your attention? I was completely stuck when I tried looking into this earlier, maybe I'll learn something :-) Pure luck :-) I am also completely new to kernel hacking... I read your message about the xfer_status in snd_pmac_pcm_update, added some debugging printks in my sources in this function, then found out that the DEAD bit is set as soon as the sound dies. Since I knew that the old OSS driver was still working with newer kernels (at least 2.6.20, I was not able to use it in 2.6.22 anymore), I peeked into the sources there and spotted the DEAD DMA transfer handling in it. > I'm also wondering whether this counts as a fix or a workaround. It's somewhat weird that we're now seeing the same problem in the ALSA driver as OSS used to have--but for years these DEAD DMA transfers never showed up in ALSA. Agreed, maybe it's just a workaround. Maybe this patch from Ben Herrenschmidt is causing some troubles with DMA that haven't been there before? Looking at Ben's patch, there is some stuff related to DMA and IDE (which also uses DMA) in it... have you already been in contact with Ben Herrenschmidt because of this? -- No sound in linux-image-2.6.20-8-powerpc G4 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/87652 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 87652] Re: No sound in linux-image-2.6.20-8-powerpc G4
I have the same problem on my PowerMac G4. After reading the note from Dave Vasilevsky, I also checked the status in the snd_pmac_pcm_update function, and it seems that the failing DMA transfer has the status DEAD. I've then checked the old OSS powermac sound driver in sound/oss/dmasound/dmasound_awacs.c (which used to work with newer kernels) - and yes, this driver handles DEAD DMA transfers! So I've spent some time porting the DEAD DMA transfer handling code from the old driver to the new one - and now sound it working for me again with kernels 2.6.22 / Ubuntu 7.10. I've attached my patch, would be nice if other users here could try it out, too! ** Attachment added: "Patch for broken sound on G4 PowerMac" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/11311439/pmac.c.diff -- No sound in linux-image-2.6.20-8-powerpc G4 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/87652 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
