If the documentation wasn't so terrible, this probably wouldn't be a problem. It doesn't give *any* clue that, for example, a developer shouldn't use the mmap functions. In fact it makes it sound like you should use them, because they're zero-copy (and that's better, right?)

Well yea, but Lennart Pottering does have a blog post where he says exactly what subset of ALSA's API you should restrict yourself to, perhaps someone should put that into the ALSA docs.
