mmdevapi performance analysis

Hi, While the 3D guys work on performance improvements, we audio guys kill it. Luckily gfx data is shuffled around in MB/s, audio only in hundred kB/s, so hopefully it doesn't weight that much. Let's have a look at how data wanders around with dsound, winmm and mmdevapi. waveOutWrite with mmdevapi: copy to mmdevapi ALSA/OSS buffer copy some in case of mmdevapi buffer wrap around write buffer to ALSA/OSS waveOutWrite old driver model: write header to ALSA/OSS waveOutWrite involving MSACM with mmdevapi: convert PCM to MSACM, writing to new buffer copy to mmdevapi ALSA/OSS buffer copy some in case of buffer wrap around write to ALSA/OSS Here, if msacm/waveform.c had the courage to delay conversion until GetBuffer time, some copying could be avoided as msacm would write directly into mmdevapi's buffer. Being overly protective ("I should convert before GetBuffer because afterwards I might not have enough time") ends up wasting CPU cycles, hence paradoxically increasing the probability of being late thus causing underruns. The cause for the impedance mismatch between winmm and mmdevapi is what I call "owner inversion". The app supplies winmm with a pointer to its data buffers. As mmdevapi does the same, some transfer is needed between both. Arguably, mmdevapi is not the best target for winmm in Wine... DSOUND_WaveQueue newest "reimplement rendering on mmdevapi" in 1.3.30: write to dsound secondary buffer mix secondary to primary buffer copy to mmdevapi buffer copy some more in case of mmdevapi buffer wrap around write buffer to ALSA/OSS It looks like the new code misses the opportunity to equate device buffer with primary buffer. Instead we've got a cascade of buffers. Why is dsound's primary (mixing target) not mmdevapi's buffer? What's the goal? Ideally, 1. ALSA's mmdevdrv Get/ReleaseBuffer use snd_pcm_mmap_begin/commit, avoiding copying from mmdevapi to ALSA; 2. mmdevapi's buffer becomes DSound's primary, avoiding copying from dsound to mmdevapi. This applies even to CoreAudio where there's not really an mmdevapi buffer. The result: DSound's mixer talks straight with the HW. This should be no surprise. mmdevapi's shared mode mixer probably has roots in dsound's. BTW, what prevents equating dsound's secondary buffers with mmdevapi's shared mode streams and let the underlying device perform the mixing? Regards, Jörg Höhle

Update on testbot
by Maarten Lankhorst 28 Sep '11

Hi all, I moved the windows 7 x64 vm with sp1 applied to the base pool now. This means that all submitted patches will be run on that vm as well. The original win7 vm is still available under its own name. Since all tests pass on that according to winehq tests I'm keeping it in the base pool. I hope to see all tests on the new vm fixed as well. They mostly appear to be related to the ie9 update, but msctf:inputprocessor and msi:install fail as well. ~Maarten

Re: mscoree: Add ICorDebug interface support (try 3)

It's OK to call CLRMetaHost methods directly with a NULL ICLRMetaHost instance. It's a singleton, and none of the methods use the interface. You might want to check whether you get a new ICorDebug interface every time you request one. I suspect you do.

Hi, While running your changed tests on Windows, I think I found new failures. Being a bot and all I'm not very good at pattern recognition, so I might be wrong, but could you please double-check?

You really should implement the .NET 4 version of this first (MSDN helpfully points to ICLRRuntimeInfo::GetInterface, which is CLRRuntimeInfo_GetInterface in our code), then implement the legacy version based on that, so everything is in one place.

Why aren't you using CLRRuntimeInfo_GetInterface for this?
