Audio HAL 提供的操作

Audio HAL 操作接口

Audio HAL 本身主要包括接口服务层，和硬件模块层。接口服务层的接口一般在 HIDL 文件中定义，代码通过工具自动生成。接口服务层封装了硬件模块层，它们提供的操作最终还是要由硬件模块层完成。Audio HAL 硬件模块层相关的结构及其关系大体如下图所示：

struct hw_module_t 的定义 (位于 hardware/libhardware/include/hardware/hardware.h) 如下：

typedef struct hw_module_t {/** tag must be initialized to HARDWARE_MODULE_TAG */uint32_t tag;/*** The API version of the implemented module. The module owner is* responsible for updating the version when a module interface has* changed.** The derived modules such as gralloc and audio own and manage this field.* The module user must interpret the version field to decide whether or* not to inter-operate with the supplied module implementation.* For example, SurfaceFlinger is responsible for making sure that* it knows how to manage different versions of the gralloc-module API,* and AudioFlinger must know how to do the same for audio-module API.** The module API version should include a major and a minor component.* For example, version 1.0 could be represented as 0x0100. This format* implies that versions 0x0100-0x01ff are all API-compatible.** In the future, libhardware will expose a hw_get_module_version()* (or equivalent) function that will take minimum/maximum supported* versions as arguments and would be able to reject modules with* versions outside of the supplied range.*/uint16_t module_api_version;
#define version_major module_api_version/*** version_major/version_minor defines are supplied here for temporary* source code compatibility. They will be removed in the next version.* ALL clients must convert to the new version format.*//*** The API version of the HAL module interface. This is meant to* version the hw_module_t, hw_module_methods_t, and hw_device_t* structures and definitions.** The HAL interface owns this field. Module users/implementations* must NOT rely on this value for version information.** Presently, 0 is the only valid value.*/uint16_t hal_api_version;
#define version_minor hal_api_version/** Identifier of module */const char *id;/** Name of this module */const char *name;/** Author/owner/implementor of the module */const char *author;/** Modules methods */struct hw_module_methods_t* methods;/** module's dso */void* dso;#ifdef __LP64__uint64_t reserved[32-7];
#else/** padding to 128 bytes, reserved for future use */uint32_t reserved[32-7];
#endif} hw_module_t;

每个硬件模块都必须有一个名为 HAL_MODULE_INFO_SYM 的数据结构，且该数据结构的字段必须以 hw_module_t 开始，然后是模块自己特有的信息。

其中的 struct hw_module_methods_t 定义 (位于 hardware/libhardware/include/hardware/hardware.h) 如下：

typedef struct hw_module_methods_t {/** Open a specific device */int (*open)(const struct hw_module_t* module, const char* id,struct hw_device_t** device);} hw_module_methods_t;

hw_module_methods_t 仅有的操作是 open()，主要用以打开设备，获得 struct hw_device_t 对象。struct hw_device_t 的定义 (位于 hardware/libhardware/include/hardware/hardware.h) 如下：

typedef struct hw_device_t {/** tag must be initialized to HARDWARE_DEVICE_TAG */uint32_t tag;/*** Version of the module-specific device API. This value is used by* the derived-module user to manage different device implementations.** The module user is responsible for checking the module_api_version* and device version fields to ensure that the user is capable of* communicating with the specific module implementation.** One module can support multiple devices with different versions. This* can be useful when a device interface changes in an incompatible way* but it is still necessary to support older implementations at the same* time. One such example is the Camera 2.0 API.** This field is interpreted by the module user and is ignored by the* HAL interface itself.*/uint32_t version;/** reference to the module this device belongs to */struct hw_module_t* module;/** padding reserved for future use */
#ifdef __LP64__uint64_t reserved[12];
#elseuint32_t reserved[12];
#endif/** Close this device */int (*close)(struct hw_device_t* device);} hw_device_t;

struct hw_device_t 提供的仅有的操作是 close()，它用以关闭自身。一般来说，struct hw_module_t 是静态定义的全局对象，struct hw_device_t 对象的创建和销毁则有了更大的灵活性。每个设备数据结构必须以 hw_device_t 开始，然后是模块特有的公共方法和属性。

为音频模块定义的 struct audio_module，它与 struct hw_module_t 基本一致，其定义 (位于 hardware/libhardware/include/hardware/audio.h) 如下：

struct audio_module {struct hw_module_t common;
};

struct audio_module 相对于 struct hw_module_t 没有特有的字段。

为音频设备定义的 struct hw_device_t 子结构体 struct audio_hw_device 添加了不少方法，其定义 (位于 hardware/libhardware/include/hardware/audio.h) 如下：

struct audio_hw_device {/*** Common methods of the audio device.

typedef struct audio_hw_device audio_hw_device_t;

struct audio_hw_device 提供了许多操作，我们可以从设备控制和数据流两个方面来看待这些操作，更具体地，这些操作可以分为如下这样一些功能类别：

设备信息及状态查询和设置。如 get_supported_devices，init_check，get_input_buffer_size，get_microphones，get_audio_port，set_audio_port_config 和 get_audio_port_v7；
音量设置和获取，如 set_voice_volume，set_master_volume，get_master_volume，set_mic_mute，get_mic_mute，set_master_mute 和 get_master_mute；

音效，如 add_device_effect 和 remove_device_effect。

音频输入输出流管理 是最重要最基本的数据处理功能，Audio patch 相关功能 和音效是高级数据处理功能。

在 Audio HAL 中，输入输出流分别用来描述麦克风采集和扬声器播放的数据流，Audio HAL 的使用者通过输入流 struct audio_stream_in 和输出流 struct audio_stream_out 从音频采集设备获得数据或将播放数据送进音频播放设备。输入流 struct audio_stream_in 和输出流 struct audio_stream_out 都继承自 struct audio_stream，struct audio_stream 定义了一些共有的音频流参数和操作，其详细定义 (位于 hardware/libhardware/include/hardware/audio.h) 如下：

/* common audio stream parameters and operations */
struct audio_stream {/*** Return the sampling rate in Hz - eg. 44100.*/uint32_t (*get_sample_rate)(const struct audio_stream *stream);/* currently unused - use set_parameters with key*    AUDIO_PARAMETER_STREAM_SAMPLING_RATE*/int (*set_sample_rate)(struct audio_stream *stream, uint32_t rate);/*** Return size of input/output buffer in bytes for this stream - eg. 4800.* It should be a multiple of the frame size.

缓冲区大小的获取，如 get_buffer_size；
设置进入待命模式，如 standby；
调试相关功能，如 dump；
与流关联的设备的获取和设置，如 get_device 和 set_device；
针对流的参数设置和获取，如 set_parameters 和 get_parameters；
针对流的音效功能，如 add_audio_effect 和 remove_audio_effect。

音效可以针对音频流来添加和移除。

struct audio_stream_in 提供了更加丰富的操作，其定义 (位于 hardware/libhardware/include/hardware/audio.h) 如下：

音频输出流 struct audio_stream_out 相对于 struct audio_stream 增加的这些操作，按照功能可以分为如下几个类别：

状态查询和设置，如 get_latency，get_render_position，get_next_write_timestamp，get_presentation_position；
音量调节，如 set_volume；
数据写入，如 write；
支持异步模式，如 set_callback，
支持 offload playback 模式，如 pause，resume，drain 和 flush；
支持 MMAP 数据传输模式，如 start，stop，create_mmap_buffer 和 get_mmap_position；
更新 stream 的 source 的 metadata，如 update_source_metadata 和 update_source_metadata_v7。
事件通知，如 set_event_callback;
双单声道模式支持，如 get_dual_mono_mode 和 set_dual_mono_mode；
音频描述混合支持，如 get_audio_description_mix_level 和 set_audio_description_mix_level。
播放速率控制，如 get_playback_rate_parameters，和 set_playback_rate_parameters。

Audio HAL 硬件模块层相关的结构和接口及其关系更完整的描述如下图所示：

AAOS 版模拟器的 Audio HAL 操作

AAOS 版模拟器的 struct audio_module 对象实例定义 (位于 device/generic/car/emulator/audio/driver/audio_hw.c) 如下：

static struct hw_module_methods_t hal_module_methods = {.open = adev_open,
};struct audio_module HAL_MODULE_INFO_SYM = {.common = {.tag = HARDWARE_MODULE_TAG,.module_api_version = AUDIO_MODULE_API_VERSION_0_1,.hal_api_version = HARDWARE_HAL_API_VERSION,.id = AUDIO_HARDWARE_MODULE_ID,.name = "Generic car audio HW HAL",.author = "The Android Open Source Project",.methods = &hal_module_methods,},
};

struct hw_module_t 的 open() 操作的定义 (位于 device/generic/car/emulator/audio/driver/audio_hw.c) 如下：

/* copied from libcutils/str_parms.c */
static bool str_eq(void *key_a, void *key_b) {return !strcmp((const char *)key_a, (const char *)key_b);
}/*** use djb hash unless we find it inadequate.* copied from libcutils/str_parms.c*/
#ifdef __clang__
__attribute__((no_sanitize("integer")))
#endif
static int str_hash_fn(void *str) {uint32_t hash = 5381;char *p;for (p = str; p && *p; p++) {hash = ((hash << 5) + hash) + *p;}return (int)hash;
}static int adev_open(const hw_module_t *module,const char *name, hw_device_t **device) {static struct generic_audio_device *adev;ALOGD("%s:%s: name %s", __FILE__, __func__, name);if (strcmp(name, AUDIO_HARDWARE_INTERFACE) != 0)return -EINVAL;pthread_mutex_lock(&lock);if (audio_device_ref_count != 0) {*device = &adev->device.common;audio_device_ref_count++;ALOGV("%s: returning existing instance of adev", __func__);ALOGV("%s: exit", __func__);goto unlock;}pcm_config_in.period_count = get_in_period_count();pcm_config_out.period_count = get_out_period_count();adev = calloc(1, sizeof(struct generic_audio_device));pthread_mutex_init(&adev->lock, (const pthread_mutexattr_t *) NULL);adev->device.common.tag = HARDWARE_DEVICE_TAG;adev->device.common.version = AUDIO_DEVICE_API_VERSION_3_0;adev->device.common.module = (struct hw_module_t *) module;adev->device.common.close = adev_close;adev->device.init_check = adev_init_check;               // no opadev->device.set_voice_volume = adev_set_voice_volume;   // no opadev->device.set_master_volume = adev_set_master_volume; // no opadev->device.get_master_volume = adev_get_master_volume; // no opadev->device.set_master_mute = adev_set_master_mute;adev->device.get_master_mute = adev_get_master_mute;adev->device.set_mode = adev_set_mode;                   // no opadev->device.set_mic_mute = adev_set_mic_mute;adev->device.get_mic_mute = adev_get_mic_mute;adev->device.set_parameters = adev_set_parameters;       // no opadev->device.get_parameters = adev_get_parameters;       // no opadev->device.get_input_buffer_size = adev_get_input_buffer_size;adev->device.open_output_stream = adev_open_output_stream;adev->device.close_output_stream = adev_close_output_stream;adev->device.open_input_stream = adev_open_input_stream;adev->device.close_input_stream = adev_close_input_stream;adev->device.dump = adev_dump;// New in AUDIO_DEVICE_API_VERSION_3_0adev->device.set_audio_port_config = adev_set_audio_port_config;adev->device.create_audio_patch = adev_create_audio_patch;adev->device.release_audio_patch = adev_release_audio_patch;*device = &adev->device.common;adev->mixer = mixer_open(PCM_CARD);ALOGD("%s Mixer name %s", __func__, mixer_get_name(adev->mixer));struct mixer_ctl *ctl;// Set default mixer ctls// Enable channels and set volumefor (int i = 0; i < (int)mixer_get_num_ctls(adev->mixer); i++) {ctl = mixer_get_ctl(adev->mixer, i);ALOGD("mixer %d name %s", i, mixer_ctl_get_name(ctl));if (!strcmp(mixer_ctl_get_name(ctl), "Master Playback Volume") ||!strcmp(mixer_ctl_get_name(ctl), "Capture Volume")) {for (int z = 0; z < (int)mixer_ctl_get_num_values(ctl); z++) {ALOGD("set ctl %d to %d", z, 100);mixer_ctl_set_percent(ctl, z, 100);}continue;}if (!strcmp(mixer_ctl_get_name(ctl), "Master Playback Switch") ||!strcmp(mixer_ctl_get_name(ctl), "Capture Switch")) {for (int z = 0; z < (int)mixer_ctl_get_num_values(ctl); z++) {ALOGD("set ctl %d to %d", z, 1);mixer_ctl_set_value(ctl, z, 1);}continue;}}// Initialize the bus address to output stream mapadev->out_bus_stream_map = hashmapCreate(5, str_hash_fn, str_eq);// Initialize the bus address to input stream mapadev->in_bus_tone_frequency_map = hashmapCreate(5, str_hash_fn, str_eq);adev->next_tone_frequency_to_assign = DEFAULT_FREQUENCY;adev->last_zone_selected_to_play = DEFAULT_ZONE_TO_LEFT_SPEAKER;device_handle = adev;audio_device_ref_count++;unlock:pthread_mutex_unlock(&lock);return 0;
}

这个操作完成的主要的事情为创建一个单实例的定制版的 struct audio_hw_device 对象，即 struct generic_audio_device 对象。struct generic_audio_device 结构的定义 (位于 device/generic/car/emulator/audio/driver/audio_hw.h) 如下：

struct generic_audio_device {struct audio_hw_device device;  // Constant after initpthread_mutex_t lock;unsigned int last_patch_id;   // Protected by this->lockbool master_mute;             // Protected by this->lockbool mic_mute;                // Protected by this->lockstruct mixer *mixer;          // Protected by this->lockHashmap *out_bus_stream_map;  // Extended field. Constant after initHashmap *in_bus_tone_frequency_map;  // Extended field. Constant after initint next_tone_frequency_to_assign; // Protected by this->lock// Play on Speaker zone selectionint last_zone_selected_to_play; // Protected by this->lock
};static struct generic_audio_device *device_handle;

操作完成的主要动作如下：

如果 struct generic_audio_device 对象已经创建，则增加引用计数并返回；
struct generic_audio_device 对象还没有创建，则初始化 pcm_config_in 和 pcm_config_out；
动态分配一个 struct generic_audio_device 对象，并初始化其各个字段；
调用 tinyalsa 的 mixer_open() 函数打开 mixer 设备；
设置默认的 mixer 控制；
创建总线到输出流的映射；
初始化其它一些成员变量；
增加引用计数，并返回。

struct hw_device_t 提供的close() 操作是上面这个 open() 操作的你操作：

static int adev_close(hw_device_t *dev) {struct generic_audio_device *adev = (struct generic_audio_device *)dev;int ret = 0;if (!adev)return 0;pthread_mutex_lock(&lock);if (audio_device_ref_count == 0) {ALOGE("adev_close called when ref_count 0");ret = -EINVAL;goto error;}if ((--audio_device_ref_count) == 0) {if (adev->mixer) {mixer_close(adev->mixer);}if (adev->out_bus_stream_map) {hashmapFree(adev->out_bus_stream_map);}if (adev->in_bus_tone_frequency_map) {hashmapFree(adev->in_bus_tone_frequency_map);}device_handle = 0;free(adev);}error:pthread_mutex_unlock(&lock);return ret;
}

它首先递减 struct generic_audio_device 对象的引用计数。如果引用计数为 0，则释放上面 open() 操作分配或打开的所有资源。

接着来看下数据相关的操作。用于打开音频输出流的 adev_open_output_stream() 函数的定义如下：

static int adev_open_output_stream(struct audio_hw_device *dev,audio_io_handle_t handle, audio_devices_t devices, audio_output_flags_t flags,struct audio_config *config, struct audio_stream_out **stream_out, const char *address) {struct generic_audio_device *adev = (struct generic_audio_device *)dev;struct generic_stream_out *out;int ret = 0;if (refine_output_parameters(&config->sample_rate, &config->format, &config->channel_mask)) {ALOGE("Error opening output stream format %d, channel_mask %04x, sample_rate %u",config->format, config->channel_mask, config->sample_rate);ret = -EINVAL;goto error;}out = (struct generic_stream_out *)calloc(1, sizeof(struct generic_stream_out));if (!out)return -ENOMEM;out->stream.common.get_sample_rate = out_get_sample_rate;out->stream.common.set_sample_rate = out_set_sample_rate;out->stream.common.get_buffer_size = out_get_buffer_size;out->stream.common.get_channels = out_get_channels;out->stream.common.get_format = out_get_format;out->stream.common.set_format = out_set_format;out->stream.common.standby = out_standby;out->stream.common.dump = out_dump;out->stream.common.set_parameters = out_set_parameters;out->stream.common.get_parameters = out_get_parameters;out->stream.common.add_audio_effect = out_add_audio_effect;out->stream.common.remove_audio_effect = out_remove_audio_effect;out->stream.get_latency = out_get_latency;out->stream.set_volume = out_set_volume;out->stream.write = out_write;out->stream.get_render_position = out_get_render_position;out->stream.get_presentation_position = out_get_presentation_position;out->stream.get_next_write_timestamp = out_get_next_write_timestamp;pthread_mutex_init(&out->lock, (const pthread_mutexattr_t *) NULL);out->dev = adev;out->device = devices;memcpy(&out->req_config, config, sizeof(struct audio_config));memcpy(&out->pcm_config, &pcm_config_out, sizeof(struct pcm_config));out->pcm_config.rate = config->sample_rate;out->pcm_config.period_size = out->pcm_config.rate * get_out_period_ms() / 1000;out->standby = true;out->underrun_position = 0;out->underrun_time.tv_sec = 0;out->underrun_time.tv_nsec = 0;out->last_write_time_us = 0;out->frames_total_buffered = 0;out->frames_written = 0;out->frames_rendered = 0;ret = audio_vbuffer_init(&out->buffer,out->pcm_config.period_size*out->pcm_config.period_count,out->pcm_config.channels *pcm_format_to_bits(out->pcm_config.format) >> 3);if (ret == 0) {pthread_cond_init(&out->worker_wake, NULL);out->worker_standby = true;out->worker_exit = false;pthread_create(&out->worker_thread, NULL, out_write_worker, out);}out->enabled_channels = BOTH_CHANNELS;// For targets where output streams are closed regularly, currently ducked/muted addresses// should be tracked so that the address of new streams can be checked to determine the// default stateout->is_ducked = 0;out->is_muted = 0;if (address) {out->bus_address = calloc(strlen(address) + 1, sizeof(char));strncpy(out->bus_address, address, strlen(address));hashmapPut(adev->out_bus_stream_map, out->bus_address, out);/* TODO: read struct audio_gain from audio_policy_configuration */out->gain_stage = (struct audio_gain) {.min_value = -3200,.max_value = 600,.step_value = 100,};out->amplitude_ratio = 1.0;if (property_get_bool(PROP_KEY_SIMULATE_MULTI_ZONE_AUDIO, false)) {out->enabled_channels = strstr(out->bus_address, AUDIO_ZONE_KEYWORD)?

"Right" : "Left");}}*stream_out = &out->stream;ALOGD("%s bus: %s", __func__, out->bus_address);error:return ret;
}

adev_open_output_stream() 创建 struct generic_stream_out 对象，并初始化其各个成员的状态；初始化用于数据交换的数据缓冲区；创建一个线程将送进来要播放的数据继续往设备送；如果 address 非空，则会将创建的 struct generic_stream_out 对象放进一个以 address 为键的映射里；最后返回。

为输出音频流创建的线程执行的任务如下：

static void *out_write_worker(void *args) {struct generic_stream_out *out = (struct generic_stream_out *)args;struct ext_pcm *ext_pcm = NULL;uint8_t *buffer = NULL;int buffer_frames;int buffer_size;bool restart = false;bool shutdown = false;int zone_id = PRIMARY_ZONE_ID;// If it is a audio zone keyword bus address then get zone idif (strstr(out->bus_address, AUDIO_ZONE_KEYWORD)) {zone_id = get_zone_id_from_address(out->bus_address);if (zone_id == INVALID_ZONE_ID) {ALOGE("%s Found invalid zone id, defaulting device %s to zone %d", __func__,out->bus_address, DEFAULT_ZONE_TO_LEFT_SPEAKER);zone_id = DEFAULT_ZONE_TO_LEFT_SPEAKER;}}ALOGD("Out worker:%s zone id %d", out->bus_address, zone_id);while (true) {pthread_mutex_lock(&out->lock);while (out->worker_standby || restart) {restart = false;if (ext_pcm) {ext_pcm_close(ext_pcm); // Frees pcmext_pcm = NULL;free(buffer);buffer=NULL;}if (out->worker_exit) {break;}pthread_cond_wait(&out->worker_wake, &out->lock);}if (out->worker_exit) {if (!out->worker_standby) {ALOGE("Out worker:%s not in standby before exiting", out->bus_address);}shutdown = true;}while (!shutdown && audio_vbuffer_live(&out->buffer) == 0) {pthread_cond_wait(&out->worker_wake, &out->lock);}if (shutdown) {pthread_mutex_unlock(&out->lock);break;}if (!ext_pcm) {ext_pcm = ext_pcm_open(PCM_CARD, PCM_DEVICE,PCM_OUT | PCM_MONOTONIC, &out->pcm_config);if (!ext_pcm_is_ready(ext_pcm)) {ALOGE("pcm_open(out) failed: %s: address %s channels %d format %d rate %d",ext_pcm_get_error(ext_pcm),out->bus_address,out->pcm_config.channels,out->pcm_config.format,out->pcm_config.rate);pthread_mutex_unlock(&out->lock);break;}buffer_frames = out->pcm_config.period_size;buffer_size = ext_pcm_frames_to_bytes(ext_pcm, buffer_frames);buffer = malloc(buffer_size);if (!buffer) {ALOGE("could not allocate write buffer");pthread_mutex_unlock(&out->lock);break;}}int frames = audio_vbuffer_read(&out->buffer, buffer, buffer_frames);pthread_cond_signal(&out->write_wake);pthread_mutex_unlock(&out->lock);if (is_zone_selected_to_play(out->dev, zone_id)) {int write_error = ext_pcm_write(ext_pcm, out->bus_address,buffer, ext_pcm_frames_to_bytes(ext_pcm, frames));if (write_error) {ALOGE("pcm_write failed %s address %s",ext_pcm_get_error(ext_pcm), out->bus_address);restart = true;} else {ALOGV("pcm_write succeed address %s", out->bus_address);}}}if (buffer) {free(buffer);}return NULL;
}

这个线程做的事情如下：

获得音区 ID；
如果是待机状态，即首次有数据送进来之前的状态，或需要重启，则根据需要释放 ext_pcm，并等待结束这种状态；
等待音频缓冲区中进来音频数据；
在 ext_pcm 为空时，打开 pcm 设备获得 ext_pcm，并分配中间缓冲区；
从 struct generic_stream_out 的音频数据缓冲区读取送进来的音频数据；
如果音频输出流的音区是要播放的音区，则将音频数据写入 ext_pcm 播放出来；
重复上面的第 2 至第 6 步，直到结束，并释放资源。

上面看到的 ext_pcm_open() 函数，其定义 (位于 device/generic/car/emulator/audio/driver/ext_pcm.c) 如下：

/* copied from libcutils/str_parms.c */
static bool str_eq(void *key_a, void *key_b) {return !strcmp((const char *)key_a, (const char *)key_b);
}/*** use djb hash unless we find it inadequate.* copied from libcutils/str_parms.c*/
#ifdef __clang__
__attribute__((no_sanitize("integer")))
#endif
static int str_hash_fn(void *str) {uint32_t hash = 5381;char *p;for (p = str; p && *p; p++) {hash = ((hash << 5) + hash) + *p;}return (int)hash;
}. . . . . .
struct ext_pcm *ext_pcm_open(unsigned int card, unsigned int device,unsigned int flags, struct pcm_config *config) {pthread_mutex_lock(&ext_pcm_init_lock);if (shared_ext_pcm == NULL) {shared_ext_pcm = calloc(1, sizeof(struct ext_pcm));pthread_mutex_init(&shared_ext_pcm->lock, (const pthread_mutexattr_t *) NULL);shared_ext_pcm->pcm = pcm_open(card, device, flags, config);pthread_mutex_init(&shared_ext_pcm->mixer_lock, (const pthread_mutexattr_t *)NULL);pthread_create(&shared_ext_pcm->mixer_thread, (const pthread_attr_t *)NULL,mixer_thread_loop, shared_ext_pcm);shared_ext_pcm->mixer_pipeline_map = hashmapCreate(8, str_hash_fn, str_eq);}pthread_mutex_unlock(&ext_pcm_init_lock);pthread_mutex_lock(&shared_ext_pcm->lock);shared_ext_pcm->ref_count += 1;pthread_mutex_unlock(&shared_ext_pcm->lock);return shared_ext_pcm;
}

这个函数用于获取或创建一个 struct ext_pcm 单例对象。其中 struct ext_pcm 是 ALSA struct pcm 封装，其定义 (位于 device/generic/car/emulator/audio/driver/ext_pcm.h) 如下：

struct ext_pcm {struct pcm *pcm;pthread_mutex_t lock;pthread_cond_t mixer_wake;unsigned int ref_count;pthread_mutex_t mixer_lock;struct ext_mixer_pipeline mixer_pipeline;pthread_t mixer_thread;Hashmap *mixer_pipeline_map;
};

ext_pcm_open() 函数在实际创建 struct ext_pcm 单例对象时，会起一个线程，用于将各个输出流的音频数据，通过 ALSA 的接口写入设备；在不需要实际创建struct ext_pcm 单例对象时，则增加引计数；返回 struct ext_pcm 单例对象。

ext_pcm_open() 创建的线程执行的任务如下：

static bool mixer_thread_mix(__unused void *key, void *value, void *context) {struct ext_mixer_pipeline *pipeline_out = (struct ext_mixer_pipeline *)context;struct ext_mixer_pipeline *pipeline_in = (struct ext_mixer_pipeline *)value;pipeline_out->position = MAX(pipeline_out->position, pipeline_in->position);for (int i = 0; i < pipeline_out->position; i++) {float mixed = pipeline_out->buffer[i] + pipeline_in->buffer[i];if (mixed > INT16_MAX) pipeline_out->buffer[i] = INT16_MAX;else if (mixed < INT16_MIN) pipeline_out->buffer[i] = INT16_MIN;else pipeline_out->buffer[i] = (int16_t)mixed;}memset(pipeline_in, 0, sizeof(struct ext_mixer_pipeline));return true;
}static void *mixer_thread_loop(void *context) {ALOGD("%s: __enter__", __func__);struct ext_pcm *ext_pcm = (struct ext_pcm *)context;do {pthread_mutex_lock(&ext_pcm->mixer_lock);ext_pcm->mixer_pipeline.position = 0;// Combine the output from every pipeline into one output bufferhashmapForEach(ext_pcm->mixer_pipeline_map, mixer_thread_mix,&ext_pcm->mixer_pipeline);if (ext_pcm->mixer_pipeline.position > 0) {pcm_write(ext_pcm->pcm, (void *)ext_pcm->mixer_pipeline.buffer,ext_pcm->mixer_pipeline.position * sizeof(int16_t));}memset(&ext_pcm->mixer_pipeline, 0, sizeof(struct ext_mixer_pipeline));pthread_cond_broadcast(&ext_pcm->mixer_wake);pthread_mutex_unlock(&ext_pcm->mixer_lock);usleep(MIXER_INTERVAL_MS * 1000);} while (1);
}

这个线程执行的主要任务为，周期性地唤醒，遍历所有的输出音频流的数据，把它们做混音，并将混音之后的数据通过 ALSA 的接口写入设备。这里输出音频流的数据和混音之后的音频数据都用 struct ext_mixer_pipeline 结构来描述，这个结构的定义 (位于 device/generic/car/emulator/audio/driver/ext_pcm.h) 如下：

struct ext_mixer_pipeline {int16_t buffer[MIXER_BUFFER_SIZE];unsigned int position;
};

向 struct ext_pcm 写入音频数据的 ext_pcm_write() 函数，其定义 (位于 device/generic/car/emulator/audio/driver/ext_pcm.c) 如下：

static int mixer_pipeline_write(struct ext_pcm *ext_pcm, const char *bus_address,const void *data, unsigned int count) {pthread_mutex_lock(&ext_pcm->mixer_lock);struct ext_mixer_pipeline *pipeline = hashmapGet(ext_pcm->mixer_pipeline_map, bus_address);if (!pipeline) {pipeline = calloc(1, sizeof(struct ext_mixer_pipeline));hashmapPut(ext_pcm->mixer_pipeline_map, bus_address, pipeline);}unsigned int byteWritten = 0;bool write_incomplete = true;do {const unsigned int byteCount = MIN(count - byteWritten,(MIXER_BUFFER_SIZE - pipeline->position) * sizeof(int16_t));const unsigned int int16Count = byteCount / sizeof(int16_t);if (int16Count > 0) {memcpy(&pipeline->buffer[pipeline->position], (const char*)data + byteWritten, byteCount);pipeline->position += int16Count;}byteWritten += byteCount;write_incomplete = byteWritten < count;if (write_incomplete) {// wait for mixer thread to consume the pipeline bufferpthread_cond_wait(&ext_pcm->mixer_wake, &ext_pcm->mixer_lock);}} while (write_incomplete);pthread_mutex_unlock(&ext_pcm->mixer_lock);return 0;
}. . . . . .
int ext_pcm_write(struct ext_pcm *ext_pcm, const char *address,const void *data, unsigned int count) {if (ext_pcm == NULL || ext_pcm->pcm == NULL) {return -EINVAL;}return mixer_pipeline_write(ext_pcm, address, data, count);
}

这里写入数据时，获得或创建一个音频输出流数据缓冲区 struct ext_mixer_pipeline 对象，将要写入的数据复制进缓冲区。

Audio HAL 的使用者，通过 out_write() 函数向 struct generic_stream_out 写入数据，该函数定义如下：

static ssize_t out_write(struct audio_stream_out *stream, const void *buffer, size_t bytes) {struct generic_stream_out *out = (struct generic_stream_out *)stream;ALOGV("%s: to device %s", __func__, out->bus_address);const size_t frame_size = audio_stream_out_frame_size(stream);const size_t frames =  bytes / frame_size;pthread_mutex_lock(&out->lock);if (out->worker_standby) {out->worker_standby = false;}uint64_t current_position;struct timespec current_time;get_current_output_position(out, &current_position, &current_time);if (out->standby) {out->standby = false;out->underrun_time = current_time;out->frames_rendered = 0;out->frames_total_buffered = 0;}size_t frames_written = frames;const int available_frames_in_buffer = audio_vbuffer_dead(&out->buffer);const int frames_sleep =available_frames_in_buffer > frames ? 0 : frames - available_frames_in_buffer;const uint64_t sleep_time_us =frames_sleep * 1000000LL / out_get_sample_rate(&stream->common);if (sleep_time_us > 0) {pthread_mutex_unlock(&out->lock);usleep(sleep_time_us);pthread_mutex_lock(&out->lock);}if (out->dev->master_mute || out->is_muted) {ALOGV("%s: ignored due to mute", __func__);} else {out_apply_gain(out, buffer, bytes);frames_written = 0;bool write_incomplete = true;do {frames_written += audio_vbuffer_write(&out->buffer,(const char *)buffer + frames_written * frame_size,frames - frames_written);pthread_cond_signal(&out->worker_wake);write_incomplete = frames_written < frames;if (write_incomplete) {// Wait for write worker to consume the bufferpthread_cond_wait(&out->write_wake, &out->lock);}} while (write_incomplete);}/* Implementation just consumes bytes if we start getting backed up */out->frames_written += frames;out->frames_rendered += frames;out->frames_total_buffered += frames;pthread_mutex_unlock(&out->lock);if (frames_written < frames) {ALOGW("%s Hardware backing HAL too slow, could only write %zu of %zu frames",__func__, frames_written, frames);}/* Always consume all bytes */return bytes;
}

这个函数的执行过程如下：

在这次写入为第一次向流中写入音频数据时，更新一些状态；
获得 struct generic_stream_out 的数据缓冲区还可以写入数据的数量；
根据要写入的数据的数量和缓冲区中可以写入的数据的数量计算要休眠等待的时间；
要休眠等待的时间大于 0 时，则休眠等待；
流被静音时，什么也不做；
流没有被静音时，首先对传入的音频数据应用音量增益，然后将要写入的音频数据写入输出流的缓冲区，且会一直尝试，直到写完所有传入的音频数据；
更新音频输出流的状态；
返回写入的字节数。

这样在 Audio HAL 中，播放方向的音频数据流如下图所示：

接着来看下 Audio HAL 中，麦克风采集的数据流。adev_open_input_stream() 函数用于打开音频输入流，其定义如下：

static int adev_open_input_stream(struct audio_hw_device *dev,audio_io_handle_t handle, audio_devices_t devices, struct audio_config *config,struct audio_stream_in **stream_in, audio_input_flags_t flags __unused, const char *address,audio_source_t source) {ALOGV("%s: audio_source_t: %d", __func__, source);struct generic_audio_device *adev = (struct generic_audio_device *)dev;struct generic_stream_in *in;int ret = 0;if (refine_input_parameters(&config->sample_rate, &config->format, &config->channel_mask)) {ALOGE("Error opening input stream format %d, channel_mask %04x, sample_rate %u",config->format, config->channel_mask, config->sample_rate);ret = -EINVAL;goto error;}in = (struct generic_stream_in *)calloc(1, sizeof(struct generic_stream_in));if (!in) {ret = -ENOMEM;goto error;}in->stream.common.get_sample_rate = in_get_sample_rate;in->stream.common.set_sample_rate = in_set_sample_rate;         // no opin->stream.common.get_buffer_size = in_get_buffer_size;in->stream.common.get_channels = in_get_channels;in->stream.common.get_format = in_get_format;in->stream.common.set_format = in_set_format;                   // no opin->stream.common.standby = in_standby;in->stream.common.dump = in_dump;in->stream.common.set_parameters = in_set_parameters;in->stream.common.get_parameters = in_get_parameters;in->stream.common.add_audio_effect = in_add_audio_effect;       // no opin->stream.common.remove_audio_effect = in_remove_audio_effect; // no opin->stream.set_gain = in_set_gain;                              // no opin->stream.read = in_read;in->stream.get_input_frames_lost = in_get_input_frames_lost;    // no opin->stream.get_capture_position = in_get_capture_position;pthread_mutex_init(&in->lock, (const pthread_mutexattr_t *) NULL);in->dev = adev;in->device = devices;memcpy(&in->req_config, config, sizeof(struct audio_config));memcpy(&in->pcm_config, &pcm_config_in, sizeof(struct pcm_config));in->pcm_config.rate = config->sample_rate;in->pcm_config.period_size = in->pcm_config.rate * get_in_period_ms() / 1000;in->stereo_to_mono_buf = NULL;in->stereo_to_mono_buf_size = 0;in->standby = true;in->standby_position = 0;in->standby_exit_time.tv_sec = 0;in->standby_exit_time.tv_nsec = 0;in->standby_frames_read = 0;ret = audio_vbuffer_init(&in->buffer,in->pcm_config.period_size*in->pcm_config.period_count,in->pcm_config.channels *pcm_format_to_bits(in->pcm_config.format) >> 3);if (ret == 0) {pthread_cond_init(&in->worker_wake, NULL);in->worker_standby = true;in->worker_exit = false;pthread_create(&in->worker_thread, NULL, in_read_worker, in);}if (address) {in->bus_address = strdup(address);if (is_tone_generator_device(in)) {int update_frequency = adev->next_tone_frequency_to_assign;int frequency = create_or_fetch_tone_frequency(adev, address, update_frequency);if (update_frequency == frequency) {increase_next_tone_frequency(adev);}in->oscillator.phase = 0.0f;in->oscillator.phase_increment = (TWO_PI*(frequency))/ ((float) in_get_sample_rate(&in->stream.common));}}*stream_in = &in->stream;error:return ret;
}

adev_open_input_stream() 函数与 adev_open_output_stream() 函数比较相似，它创建 struct generic_stream_in 对象，并初始化其各个成员的状态；初始化用于数据交换的数据缓冲区；创建一个线程从设备读取数据；如果 address 非空，则复制 address 内容进 struct generic_stream_in 对象，且如果输入音频流的数据来源指定为音频发生器设备，则初始化相关的状态；最后返回创建的音频输入流对象。

为输入音频流创建的线程执行的任务如下：

static void *in_read_worker(void *args) {struct generic_stream_in *in = (struct generic_stream_in *)args;struct pcm *pcm = NULL;uint8_t *buffer = NULL;size_t buffer_frames;int buffer_size;bool restart = false;bool shutdown = false;while (true) {pthread_mutex_lock(&in->lock);while (in->worker_standby || restart) {restart = false;if (pcm) {pcm_close(pcm); // Frees pcmpcm = NULL;free(buffer);buffer=NULL;}if (in->worker_exit) {break;}pthread_cond_wait(&in->worker_wake, &in->lock);}if (in->worker_exit) {if (!in->worker_standby) {ALOGE("In worker not in standby before exiting");}shutdown = true;}if (shutdown) {pthread_mutex_unlock(&in->lock);break;}if (!pcm) {pcm = pcm_open(PCM_CARD, PCM_DEVICE,PCM_IN | PCM_MONOTONIC, &in->pcm_config);if (!pcm_is_ready(pcm)) {ALOGE("pcm_open(in) failed: %s: channels %d format %d rate %d",pcm_get_error(pcm),in->pcm_config.channels,in->pcm_config.format,in->pcm_config.rate);pthread_mutex_unlock(&in->lock);break;}buffer_frames = in->pcm_config.period_size;buffer_size = pcm_frames_to_bytes(pcm, buffer_frames);buffer = malloc(buffer_size);if (!buffer) {ALOGE("could not allocate worker read buffer");pthread_mutex_unlock(&in->lock);break;}}pthread_mutex_unlock(&in->lock);int ret = pcm_read(pcm, buffer, pcm_frames_to_bytes(pcm, buffer_frames));if (ret != 0) {ALOGW("pcm_read failed %s", pcm_get_error(pcm));restart = true;}pthread_mutex_lock(&in->lock);size_t frames_written = audio_vbuffer_write(&in->buffer, buffer, buffer_frames);pthread_mutex_unlock(&in->lock);if (frames_written != buffer_frames) {ALOGW("in_read_worker only could write %zu / %zu frames",frames_written, buffer_frames);}}if (buffer) {free(buffer);}return NULL;
}

这个线程做的事情如下：

如果是待机状态，即首次有数据送进来之前的状态，或需要重启，则根据需要释放 struct pcm，并等待结束这种状态；
根据需要处理退出；
在 struct pcm 对象为空时，打开 pcm 设备获得 struct pcm 对象，并分配中间缓冲区，不像输出音频流那样需要多个流共享设备，而不得不创建 struct ext_pcm，这里直接通过 ALSA 的接口访问硬件设备；
直接通过 ALSA 的接口读取硬件设备中的数据，并将读取的数据写入 struct generic_stream_in 的缓冲区；
重复上面的第 1 至第 4 步，直到结束，并释放资源。

Audio HAL 的使用者，通过 in_read() 函数将 struct generic_stream_in 的数据读取出来，该函数定义如下：

// Generates pure tone for FM_TUNER and bus_device
static int pseudo_pcm_read(void *data, unsigned int count, struct oscillator *oscillator) {unsigned int length = count / sizeof(int16_t);int16_t *sdata = (int16_t *)data;for (int index = 0; index < length; index++) {sdata[index] = (int16_t)(sin(oscillator->phase) * 4096);oscillator->phase += oscillator->phase_increment;oscillator->phase = oscillator->phase > TWO_PI ?oscillator->phase - TWO_PI : oscillator->phase;}return count;
}. . . . . .
static bool address_has_tone_keyword(char * address) {return strstr(address, TONE_ADDRESS_KEYWORD) != NULL;
}static bool is_tone_generator_device(struct generic_stream_in *in) {return in->device == AUDIO_DEVICE_IN_FM_TUNER || ((in->device == AUDIO_DEVICE_IN_BUS) &&address_has_tone_keyword(in->bus_address));
}static ssize_t in_read(struct audio_stream_in *stream, void *buffer, size_t bytes) {struct generic_stream_in *in = (struct generic_stream_in *)stream;struct generic_audio_device *adev = in->dev;const size_t frames =  bytes / audio_stream_in_frame_size(stream);int ret = 0;bool mic_mute = false;size_t read_bytes = 0;adev_get_mic_mute(&adev->device, &mic_mute);pthread_mutex_lock(&in->lock);if (in->worker_standby) {in->worker_standby = false;}// Tone generators fill the buffer via pseudo_pcm_read directlyif (!is_tone_generator_device(in)) {pthread_cond_signal(&in->worker_wake);}int64_t current_position;struct timespec current_time;get_current_input_position(in, &current_position, &current_time);if (in->standby) {in->standby = false;in->standby_exit_time = current_time;in->standby_frames_read = 0;}const int64_t frames_available =current_position - in->standby_position - in->standby_frames_read;assert(frames_available >= 0);const size_t frames_wait =((uint64_t)frames_available > frames) ? 0 : frames - frames_available;int64_t sleep_time_us  = frames_wait * 1000000LL / in_get_sample_rate(&stream->common);pthread_mutex_unlock(&in->lock);if (sleep_time_us > 0) {usleep(sleep_time_us);}pthread_mutex_lock(&in->lock);int read_frames = 0;if (in->standby) {ALOGW("Input put to sleep while read in progress");goto exit;}in->standby_frames_read += frames;if (is_tone_generator_device(in)) {int read_bytes = pseudo_pcm_read(buffer, bytes, &in->oscillator);read_frames = read_bytes / audio_stream_in_frame_size(stream);} else if (popcount(in->req_config.channel_mask) == 1 &&in->pcm_config.channels == 2) {// Need to resample to monoif (in->stereo_to_mono_buf_size < bytes*2) {in->stereo_to_mono_buf = realloc(in->stereo_to_mono_buf, bytes*2);if (!in->stereo_to_mono_buf) {ALOGE("Failed to allocate stereo_to_mono_buff");goto exit;}}read_frames = audio_vbuffer_read(&in->buffer, in->stereo_to_mono_buf, frames);// Currently only pcm 16 is supported.uint16_t *src = (uint16_t *)in->stereo_to_mono_buf;uint16_t *dst = (uint16_t *)buffer;size_t i;// Resample stereo 16 to mono 16 by dropping one channel.// The stereo stream is interleaved L-R-L-Rfor (i = 0; i < frames; i++) {*dst = *src;src += 2;dst += 1;}} else {read_frames = audio_vbuffer_read(&in->buffer, buffer, frames);}exit:read_bytes = read_frames*audio_stream_in_frame_size(stream);if (mic_mute) {read_bytes = 0;}if (read_bytes < bytes) {memset (&((uint8_t *)buffer)[read_bytes], 0, bytes-read_bytes);}pthread_mutex_unlock(&in->lock);return bytes;
}

这个函数的执行过程如下：

在这次读取为第一次从流中读取音频数据时，更新一些状态；
获得可以从 struct generic_stream_in 的数据缓冲区中读取的数据的数量；
根据要读取的数据的数量和缓冲区中可以读取的数据的数量计算要休眠等待的时间；
要休眠等待的时间大于 0 时，则休眠等待；
音频数据流的数据来源设备为音频发生器时，则自动生成一些数据返回给调用者；
请求的音频数据通道数为 1，设备配置的音频数据通道数为 2 时，从 struct generic_stream_in 的数据缓冲区中读取数据，并将双声道的数据转换为单声道的数据返回给调用者；
其它情况则直接从 struct generic_stream_in 的数据缓冲区中读取数据返回给调用者；
计算读取的字节数；
读取的数据量小于请求读取的数据量时，将传入的缓冲区中最后对应数量的空间清零；
返回读取的音频数据字节数。

Audio HAL 提供的操作大概是这样。
