Subject: Sound problems with snd_hda on x86_64

Hello,

I just built my very first 64-bit kernel for Athlon64
and it boots and works. Thank you Andi for all your work
on x86_64.

The only trouble so far that KDE's artsd and mplayer
have trouble playing sound.

Strace of artsd on 32 bits:

1762  open("/dev/snd/pcmC0D0p", O_RDWR|O_NONBLOCK) = 9
1762  close(8)                          = 0
1762  ioctl(9, AGPIOC_ACQUIRE or APM_IOC_STANDBY <unfinished ...>
1762  <... ioctl resumed> , 0x77c58280) = 0
1762  fcntl64(9, F_GETFL)               = 0x802 (flags O_RDWR|O_NONBLOCK)
1762  ioctl(9, AGPIOC_INFO, 0x77c5827c) = 0
1762  ioctl(9, AGPIOC_RELEASE or APM_IOC_SUSPEND, 0x77c58278) = 0
1762  mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ, MAP_SHARED, 9, 0x80000) = 0x6f85c000
1762  mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, 9, 0x81000) = 0x6f85b000

On 64 bits:

2203  open("/dev/snd/pcmC0D0p", O_RDWR|O_NONBLOCK) = 9
2203  close(8)                          = 0
2203  ioctl(9, AGPIOC_ACQUIRE or APM_IOC_STANDBY <unfinished ...>
2203  <... ioctl resumed> , 0xffa9eda0) = 0
2203  fcntl64(9, F_GETFL)               = 0x802 (flags O_RDWR|O_NONBLOCK)
2203  ioctl(9, AGPIOC_INFO, 0xffa9ed9c) = 0
2203  ioctl(9, AGPIOC_RELEASE or APM_IOC_SUSPEND, 0xffa9ed98) = 0
2203  mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ, MAP_SHARED, 9, 0x80000) = -1 ENXIO (No such device or address)
2203  write(2, "ALSA lib ../../../src/pcm/pcm_hw"..., 64) = 64
2203  write(2, "status mmap failed", 18) = 18
2203  write(2, ": No such device or address", 27) = 27
2203  write(2, "\n", 1)                 = 1

-ENXIO seems to be the thing which gives trouble.
I think it comes from here:

Which is, in turn, is caused by this code:

It's puzzling. Even a 486 processor, can do 64-bit operations (using cmpxchg8)
on memory-mapped areas, why does code disallows mmap for 64-bit CPUs but allows
for 32-bit ones?

I suspect that not all sound devices are mmap-able, and I think artsd
is not THAT buggy to try mmap on those and die, so why does it not detect
that snd_hda is not mmap-able on x86_64 kernel?
Is it artsd problem or snd_hda problem?

I did not investigate mplayer problem this deep. Visually, mplayer
plays movies faster than real time, unless given an option "-ao null".

The chip is integrated Realtek ALC883 on MSI K9N Neo mobo
(http://www.pixmania.co.uk/uk/uk/270290/art/msi/k9n-neo-f-socket-am2-amd.html).

Takashi, do you want more info and/or digging into mplayer
problem?
