-Subject: [PATCH] pcm: interval: Interpret (x x+1] correctly and return x+1
-
-Without this change an interval of (x x+1] will be interpreted as an
-empty interval but the right value would be x+1.
-This leads to a failing snd_pcm_hw_params() call which returns -EINVAL.
-
-An example issue log is given in the following:
-snd_pcm_hw_params failed with err -22 (Invalid argument)
-ACCESS: MMAP_NONINTERLEAVED
-FORMAT: S16_LE
-SUBFORMAT: STD
-SAMPLE_BITS: 16
-FRAME_BITS: 16
-CHANNELS: 1
-RATE: 16000
-PERIOD_TIME: (15999 16000]
-PERIOD_SIZE: (255 256]
-PERIOD_BYTES: (510 512]
-PERIODS: [2 3)
-BUFFER_TIME: 32000
-BUFFER_SIZE: 512
-BUFFER_BYTES: 1024
-
-In case of (x x+1) we have to interpret it anyway as a single value of x to
-compensate rounding issues.
-For example the period size will result in an interval of (352 353) when
-the period time is 16ms and the sample rate 22050 Hz
-(16ms * 22,05 kHz = 352,8 frames). But 352 has to be chosen to allow a
-buffer size of 705 (32ms * 22,05 kHz = 705,6 frames) which has to be >= 2x
-period size to avoid Xruns. The buffer size will not end up with an
-interval of (705 706) simular to the period size because
-snd_pcm_rate_hw_refine_cchange() calls snd_interval_floor() for the buffer
-size. Therefore this value will be interpreted as an integer interval
-instead of a real interval further on.
-
-This issue seems to exist since the change of 9bb985c38 ("pcm:
-snd_interval_refine_first/last: exclude value only if also excluded
-before")
