7.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Sergey Tiraspolsky [ Upstream commit f6be9f558a83fe30a03bd3adae461c821a0cef8c ] Commit cfca1637bc2b ("ASoC: Intel: avs: Unprepare a stream when XRUN occurs") resets the HDA stream when ->prepare() is called in the XRUN state. User space does not always recover that way. PipeWire's ALSA backend recovers from an underrun with snd_pcm_drop(), snd_pcm_prepare() and a new start, so ->prepare() runs in the SETUP state, hdac_stream->prepared is still set and the reset is skipped. Every recovery attempt then fails the same way: spa.alsa: hw:avsmax98927,1p: snd_pcm_avail after recover: Broken pipe On a Google Pixelbook (Kaby Lake, max98927 speakers) this happens after an occasional underrun during normal playback and silences the speakers for one to four minutes, until the PCM is closed. It can be provoked by stopping PipeWire with SIGSTOP for 0.5 s during playback: in one run that single underrun led to 1297 failed recoveries over two minutes, until the sink was suspended. A plain alsa-lib program that recovers with snd_pcm_drop() and snd_pcm_prepare() hits the same loop, while snd_pcm_prepare() straight from XRUN recovers at once. Skip the reset only when the stream is already PREPARED, the repeated ->prepare() case the check exists for, and reset it otherwise. With this change both kinds of recovery succeed with a single restart.
