Name

snd_card_proc_new — create an info entry for the given card

Synopsis

int snd_card_proc_new (struct snd_card * card,
 const char * name,
 struct snd_info_entry ** entryp);
 

Arguments

card

the card instance

name

the file name

entryp

the pointer to store the new info entry

Description

Creates a new info entry and assigns it to the given card. Unlike snd_info_create_card_entry, this function registers the info entry as an ALSA device component, so that it can be unregistered/released without explicit call. Also, you don't have to register this entry via snd_info_register, since this will be registered by snd_card_register automatically.

The parent is assumed as card->proc_root.

For releasing this entry, use snd_device_free instead of snd_info_free_entry.

Returns zero if successful, or a negative error code on failure.
