Bug 212477

Summary: EDIROL UA-101: midi is not recognized
Product: Drivers Reporter: Nicola Lunghi (nick83ola)
Component: Sound(ALSA)Assignee: Jaroslav Kysela (perex)
Status: RESOLVED CODE_FIX    
Severity: normal CC: jaffa225man, tiwai

Description Nicola Lunghi 2021-03-29 14:52:02 UTC
On kernel 5.12-rc4 using the edirol ua-101 the interface is correctly recognized but no midi port is instantiated.

If you provide me with guidance I can help debug this issue.
Probably also affect other edirol/roland interfaces.

This was a bug introduced I think at least from kernel 5.8 -> before that the midi was working (I don't remeber exactly on what kernel this happened).

Comment 2 Lucas Endres 2021-04-01 06:34:47 UTC
I hadn't realized it was working previously as I use my other Edirol UA-4FX most of the time, but I do remember the UA-101's MIDI not working for me when I tried using it too.  Sure, enough, that's the case on debian's 5.9.0-1-rt-amd64 kernel now:

aconnect -l | grep -i ua
client 28: 'UA-4FX' [type=kernel,card=3]
    0 'UA-4FX MIDI 1   '

I would've thought the two Edirol devices would use the same MIDI kernel module (snd_seq_midi and/or snd_usbmidi_lib)

I, too, would be glad to help however possible, but don't know where to begin.
I have the source for the latest mainline kernel (5.11.9), so I'd be happy to test proposed patches.
Comment 3 Takashi Iwai 2021-04-01 17:04:22 UTC
Could you once try to blacklist snd-usb-audio and let only snd-ua101 binding?

Hi,
I tried blacklisting snd-usb-audio and it works!!!
can they work together or I need to leave it blacklisted?
I have also another usb interface (dell soundbar) that probably need the other driver

Thanks in any case!

Nicola
Comment 5 Lucas Endres 2021-04-01 22:35:17 UTC
I was about to report the same thing.  Your intuition was spot on!  I also wouldn't want it blacklisted for other devices that use it, in fact I think it's the reason I'm not seeing my UA-4FX, at the moment, in these commands.

added this to

alias usb:v0582p008Dd*dc*dsc*dp*ic*isc*ip*in* snd_ua101
alias usb:v0582p007Dd*dc*dsc*dp*ic*isc*ip*in* snd_ua101
alias usb:v0582p0044d*dc*dsc*dp*ic*isc*ip*in* snd_ua101

run depmod -a

and it works without blacklist.

Did you have anything else in /etc/modprobe.d/ua101.conf because those lines don't seem necessary to me?  They are aliases already built-in to the snd_ua101 module, visible via "modinfo snd_ua101", without adding the lines.  It could just be over my head, though, as I never have thought about aliasing kernel modules.

Anyway, I disabled the blacklist, created /etc/modprobe.d/snd_ua101.conf with only your lines (along with my usual "#blah...blah" comment line describing the content's origin), ran "depmod -a", and rebooted.  After the reboot, I didn't see the UA-101's MIDI port.

Thanks, and sorry if it should be obvious to me,

  Lucas

Testing working perfectly for me!  I have the MIDI port, as you can see, with both devices coexisting.  I recorded and played some tests through it with success too:
aconnect -l | grep -i ua
client 28: 'UA-4FX' [type=kernel,card=3]
    0 'UA-4FX MIDI 1   '

I also hooked up a single microphone, recorded a mono test file (using "plughw:" for "-c 1" mono), and played it back through it:
arecord -D plughw:UA101 -f S32_LE -r 48000 -c 1 ./file.wav
Recording WAVE './file.wav' : Signed 32 bit Little Endian, Rate 48000 Hz, Mono

Playing WAVE './file.wav' : Signed 32 bit Little Endian, Rate 48000 Hz, Mono

I didn't hear any difference, so I think it's perfect!  I don't have a UA-1000 to test, though.

I tried to save time by testing two kernel patches at once, and noticed a likely possible issue with the other affecting the use of "full speed" mode on the UA-101.  "High speed" mode is working great, either way, as that's what I've shown here.

Thanks very much Takashi!

Good to hear!

I submitted the patch now to the upstream:
  http://lore.kernel.org/r/20210408075656.30184-1-tiwai@suse.de

It'll be likely merged to the branch for 5.13 kernel, as 5.12 is close to the final release, and there is a workaround.

Great thanks!  I said I'd get back to you after having only this patch, so that's what I'm doing.  It does, indeed, function perfectly for USB 1.1 "full speed" mode too.  I had the same exact results as with the USB 2 "high speed" post last night.

It'll be nice to conserve USB ports next time I want to capture fancier audio while playing back MIDI.  I've since added a USB hub, though, to facilitate any circumstance.  ;)

I'm sorry to report that I ran git bisect to narrow down the apparent firmware glitch with the UA-101 in its USB 1.1 "full speed" mode in the linux-next branch and it showed that this final commit solving the MIDI interface was related to the issue (commit d763145312582c08c4e9ed99d61276cde8488256).

I don't know how I tested it working before, with this being noticable now.  It's likely I only tested the previous version before the final commit, but doubt that should make the difference.  I have a suggestion from Alan Stern (of the USB development team) that changing the USB "communication pattern" could help, since it seems it worked on snd-usb-audio and not snd-ua101, but I really don't know which files pertain to that code.

The UA-101, only in USB 1.1 "full speed" mode, is freezing.  It can be observed by turning it on without USB connected, inputting audio visible on it's built-in "LEVEL" LEDs, connecting its USB to a computer running a post commit kernel, and finally disconnecting the audio being input.  The "LEVEL" LEDs remain on as they had been the moment USB was connected.

Here's the bug report involving the bisection, along with Alan Stern's USB debugging expertise: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=212955

Thanks for everything, and sorry to dredge up problems with a patch I helped approve!

I'm sorry for posting that here, but previously, it made sense to me as the commit solving this bug seems to have caused the new one.

Now, I've created a new bug, since it isn't the original problem:  https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=213425

Sorry, and thanks,

  Lucas
