Subject: [PATCH v24 14/16] docs: describe virtio-sound capture options
Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2026 09:05:41 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261111000543.28550-15-mynameisjune111@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261111000543.28550-1-mynameisjune111@gmail.com>

Document the request-owned default capture path, its temporary memory
and copy cost, and the two remaining default-off compatibility
parameters. Remove the earlier opt-in staging and short/empty-response
descriptions.

Assisted-by: LLM

+	virtio_snd.capture_packed_status= [HW,ALSA]
+			Read an explicitly enabled packed status trailer after
+			the returned capture data. The fixed status scatterlist is
+			used by default.
+			Format: <bool>
+			Default: false.
+
+	virtio_snd.capture_pause_restart= [HW,ALSA]
+			Stop and release the stream when pausing capture. On
+			resume, send SET_PARAMS, PREPARE, and START. With this
+			option disabled, pause uses STOP and START while retaining
+			the prepared stream.
+			Format: <bool>
+			Default: false.
+
+			Capture always receives into request-owned buffers, then
+			appends validated, frame-aligned audio to the ALSA ring in
+			request order. A valid short response is retained. Empty
+			responses are tolerated only during bounded startup or for
+			requests already in flight at STOP or PAUSE. This uses up
+			to one PCM buffer of temporary memory and copies returned
+			audio into the ALSA ring.
