From 2e2832562c877e6530b8480982d99a4ff90c6777 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Youngconsult.awy@gmail.com Date: Fri, 9 Jul 2021 09:48:54 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: pcm: Call substream ack() method upon compat mmap commit

If a 32-bit application is being used with a 64-bit kernel and is using the mmap mechanism to write data, then the SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_SYNC_PTR ioctl results in calling snd_pcm_ioctl_sync_ptr_compat(). Make this use pcm_lib_apply_appl_ptr() so that the substream's ack() method, if defined, is called.

The snd_pcm_sync_ptr() function, used in the 64-bit ioctl case, already uses snd_pcm_ioctl_sync_ptr_compat().
