Audio capture too, or just playback?Audio capture too, or just playback?Posted Jan 24, 2008 18:35 UTC (Thu) by johnkarp (subscriber, #39285)Parent article: Finding system latency with LatencyTOP
Would this patch also help diagnose latency in the case of audio capture, not just playback? Because they seem to be related but different problems; playback latency is the time between a userspace process making a syscall to write audio and the kernel poking the audio hardware, capture latency the time between the audio hardware asserting an interrupt and the userspace process receiving the data. Or at least thats my educated guess, I Am Not A Kernel Hacker.

Audio capture too, or just playback? Posted Jan 24, 2008 21:59 UTC (Thu) by arjan (subscriber, #36785) [Link] Today.. only a little... (eg it shows at least how long things take etc) But the plan/hope is that the -rt latency tracer makes it to mainline at some point in the future, which then really would help latencytop in giving the level of deep details needed for this kind of analysis.
