ALSA Driver Documentation

Takashi Iwai has written "Writing an ALSA Driver" - a very comprehensive guide to developing a device driver for ALSA.

The document focuses mainly on the PCI soundcard. In the case of other device types, the API might be different. However the ALSA kernel API is consistent so it will be helpful in that context.

ALSA Driver API Reference

This document gives a complete rundown of the functions in the alsa-driver API.
