ALSA did not provide any direct means to infer the audio time for A/V sync and system/audio time correlations (eg. PulseAudio). Applications had to track the number of samples read/written and add/subtract the number of samples queued in the ring buffer. This accounting led to small errors, typically several samples, due to the two-step process. Computing the audio time in the kernel is more direct, as all the information is available in the same routines. Also add new .audio_wallclock routine to enable fine-grain synchronization between monotonic system time and audio hardware time. Using the wallclock, if supported in hardware, allows for a much better sub-microsecond precision and a common drift tracking for all devices sharing the same wall clock (master clock).
