[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 12/12] audio: -audiodev command line option


From: Kővágó, Zoltán
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 12/12] audio: -audiodev command line option
Date: Fri, 12 Jun 2015 14:33:13 +0200

This patch adds an -audiodev command line option, and deprecates the QEMU_*
environment variables for audio backend configuration. It's syntax is similar to
existing options (-netdev, -device, etc):
 -audiodev driver_name,property=value,...

Audio drivers now get an Audiodev * as config paramters, instead of the global
audio_option structs. There is some code in audio/audio_legacy.c that converts
the old environment variables to audiodev options (this way backends do not have
to worry about legacy options, also print out them with -audio-help, to ease
migrating to -audiodev).

Although now it's possible to specify multiple -audiodev options on command
line, multiple audio backends are not supported yet.

address@hidden -audiodev @var{driver}[,@address@hidden,...]]
address@hidden -audiodev
+Adds a new audio backend @var{driver}.  There are global and driver
+specific properties.  Some values can be set differently for input and
+output, they're marked with @code{[in.|out.]}.  To only set the input's
+option prefix the property with @code{in.}, to only set the output
+prefix it with @code{out.}, or leave them to specify both.  Thus the two
+examples are equal:
address@hidden
+-audiodev alsa,in.frequency=44110,out.frequency=44110
+-audiodev alsa,frequency=44100
address@hidden example
+
+Valid global options are:
+
address@hidden @option
address@hidden address@hidden
+Identifies the audio backend.
+
address@hidden address@hidden
+Sets the timer @var{period} used by the audio subsystem, in Hz.
+
address@hidden [in.|out.]fixed-settings=on|off
+Use fixed settings for host audio.  When off, it will change based on
+how the guest opens the sound card.
+
address@hidden [in.|address@hidden
+Specify the @var{frequency} to use when using @var{fixed-settings}.
+
address@hidden [in.|address@hidden
+Specify the number of @var{channels} to use when using
address@hidden
+
address@hidden [in.|address@hidden
+Specify the sample @var{format} to use when using @var{fixed-settings}.
+Valid values are: @code{s8}, @code{s16}, @code{s32}, @code{u8},
address@hidden, @code{u32}.
+
address@hidden [in.|address@hidden
+Specify the number of @var{voices} to use.
+
address@hidden [in.|address@hidden
+Sets the size of the buffer in microseconds.
+
address@hidden [in.|address@hidden
+Sets the @var{count} of the buffers.
+
address@hidden table
+
address@hidden -audiodev none[,@address@hidden,...]]
+Creates a dummy backend that discards all outputs.  This backend has no
+backend specific properties.
+
address@hidden -audiodev alsa[,@address@hidden,...]]
+Creates backend using the ALSA.  This backend is only available on
+Linux.
+
+ALSA specific options are:
+
address@hidden @option
address@hidden [in.|address@hidden
+Specify the ALSA @var{device} to use for input and/or output.
+
address@hidden [in.|out.]try-poll=on|of
+Attempt to use poll mode with the device.
+
address@hidden address@hidden
+Threshold (in frames) when playback starts.
+
address@hidden table
+
address@hidden -audiodev coreaudio[,@address@hidden,...]]
+Creates a backend using Apple's Core Audio.  This backend is only
+available on Mac OS and only supports playback.  This backend has no
+backend-specific properties.
+
address@hidden -audiodev dsound[,@address@hidden,...]]
+Creates a backend using Microsof's DirectSound.  This backend is only
+available on Windows and only supports playback.
+
+Backend specific options are:
+
address@hidden @option
+
address@hidden address@hidden
+Add extra @var{millis} milliseconds latency to playback.
+
address@hidden table
+
address@hidden -audiodev oss[,@address@hidden,...]]
+Creates a backend using OSS.  This backend is available on most
+Unix-like systems.
+
+OSS specific options are:
+
address@hidden @option
+
address@hidden [in.|address@hidden
+Specify the @var{path} of the OSS device to use.
+
address@hidden [in.|out.]try-poll=on|of
+Attempt to use poll mode with the device.
+
address@hidden mmap=on|off
+Try using memory mapped device access.
+
address@hidden exclusive=on|off
+Open the device in exclusive mode (vmix won't work in this case).
+
address@hidden address@hidden
+Sets the timing policy (between 0 and 10).  Use -1 to use buffer sizes
+specified by @code{buffer-usecs} and @code{buffer-count}.  This option
+is ignored if you do not have OSS 4.
+
address@hidden table
+
address@hidden -audiodev pa[,@address@hidden,...]]
+Creates a backend using PulseAudio.  This backend is available on most
+systems.
+
+PulseAudio specific options are:
+
address@hidden @option
+
address@hidden address@hidden
+Sets the PulseAudio @var{server} to connect to.
+
address@hidden address@hidden
+Use the specified @var{sink} for playback.
+
address@hidden address@hidden
+Use the specified @var{source} for recording.
+
address@hidden table
+
address@hidden -audiodev sdl[,@address@hidden,...]]
+Creates a backend using SDL.  This backend is available on most systems,
+but you should use your platform's native backend if possible.  This
+backend has no backend specific properties.
+
address@hidden -audiodev spice[,@address@hidden,...]]
+Creates a backend that sends audio through SPICE.  This backend requires
address@hidden and automatically selected in that case, so usually you
+can ignore this option.  This backend has no backend specific
+properties.
+
address@hidden -audiodev wav[,@address@hidden,...]]
+Creates a backend that writes audio to a WAV file.
+
+Backend specific options are:
+
address@hidden @option
+
address@hidden address@hidden
+Write recorded audio into the specified file.
+
address@hidden table
