No feedback received, other than that the fourth patch should not go in
before the removed policy code is reimplemented elsewhere. I've pushed
the first three patches.

Removing the stream moving from module-alsa-card causes a change in
behavior that perhaps isn't acceptable: if a sink is removed due to
a profile change and a new sink is created, the streams connected to
the old sink aren't necessarily moved to the new sink. If this is

Yes, I think we need to reimplement this, otherwise it would be a 
regression. (Yet another hack just because the Real Routing System (tm) 
isn't finished, argh.)

[pulseaudio-discuss] [PATCH 0/4] Some bug fixes

2013-03-14 Thread Tanu Kaskinen
I investigated a bug in module-loopback reported[1] by Frédéric
Dalleau last year. The instructions for reproduction were as follows:

 1. Have one sound card (index 0) loaded with one sink (index 0) and
one source (index 1), plus the monitor source (index 0)

 2. pactl load-module module-loopback sink=0 source=0

 3. pactl set-card-profile 0 off

These steps caused reliable crashing, and after fixing the first
issue, two more cropped up. The first three patches fix these three
issues. When I investigated in more detail the exact conditions that
caused the first crash, I found out that module-alsa-card was doing
something that it shouldn't do: it was moving streams. The last patch
fixes that.

Removing the stream moving from module-alsa-card causes a change in
behavior that perhaps isn't acceptable: if a sink is removed due to
a profile change and a new sink is created, the streams connected to
the old sink aren't necessarily moved to the new sink. If this is
unacceptable, the old policy should be reimplemented somewhere else,
perhaps in module-rescue-streams.
