Subject[RFC PATCH 0/5] USB Audio Gadget refactoring
Date
I came to this patch series when wanted to do two things:
- use UAC1 as virtual ALSA sound card on gadget side,
just like UAC2 is used so it's possible to do rate
resampling
- have both playback/capture support in UAC1

Since I wanted to have same behavior for both UAC1/UAC2,
obviously I've got an utility part (u_audio.c) for
virtual ALSA sound card handling like we have
for ethernet(u_ether) or serial(u_serial) functions.
Function-specific parts (f_uac1/f_uac2) became almost
as storage for class-specfic USB descriptors, some
boilerplate for configfs, binding and few USB
config request handling.

Major change to f_uac1 it that it can't do
direct play to existing ALSA sound card anymore,
representing audio on gadget side as virtual
ALSA sound card where audio streams are simply
sinked to and sourced from it, so it may break
current usecase for some people (and that's why
it's RFC).

Luckily, it's possible to use existing user-space
applications for audio routing between Audio Gadget
and real sound card. I personally use alsaloop tool
from alsautils and have ability to create PCM
loopback between two different ALSA cards using
rate resampling, which is not possible with previous
"direct play to ALSA card" approach in f_uac1.

While here, also dropped redundant platform
driver/device creation in f_uac2 driver as well as
"never implemented" volume/mute functionality in f_uac1
that made this work even easier to do.

This series is tested with both legacy g_audio.ko and
modern configfs approaches under Ubuntu 14.04 (UAC1 and
UAC2) and under Windows7 x64 (UAC1 only) having
perfect results in all cases.

Some changes may have lack of good description that may
be obvious for me but not so clear for others, but I
hope to fix it in next versions.

Comments, testing are welcome.
