This is a proposal to add structures into qapi-schema.json to replace the
existing configuration structures used by audio backends currently. I'm going to
use it to implement a new way to specify audio backend options (an -audiodev
command line option, instead of environment variables. This will also allow us
to use multiple audio backends in one qemu instance), so the structure used here
will be the basis of the command line syntax.
This is currently more or less a direct translation of the current audio backend
options. I've changed some names, trying to accomplish a more consistent naming
scheme. I wouldn't be surprised if there were options that doesn't work if you
set their value to anything other than the default (for example, log to monitor
can crash qemu, QEMU_DSOUND_RESTOURE_RETRIES has a typo, so probably nobody used
it, etc). I've also tried to reduce copy-paste, when the same set of options can
be given to output and input (QEMU_*_DAC_* and QEMU_*_ADC_* options), also using
in and out instead of ADC and DAC, as in the world of SPDIF and HDMI it's
completely possible that your computer has nothing to do with analog converters.
Plus a non technician user probably has no idea what ADC and DAC stands for.
Any comment is appreciated.
