- Piotr discussing that the HAL implementation might just as well target Trout since it is progressing quickly
- Google's virtual platform for Android "Trout", is likely to implement VIRTIO-SND
- Trout is based on CrosVM (developed as part of Chromium). CrosVM is in turn based on KVM when running on Linux.
- Trout is great and will make HALs portable without/less rewrite (Piotr)
- ...but the complexity of hardware compatibility and porting then lands on Hypervisor and Virtual Platform implementations instead (Gunnar)
- (Note Automotive Virtual Platform Specification already requires VIRTIO-SND in the working-copy, to be released in new version soon)
- VIRTIO-SND proposal is merged to VIRTIO master branch but no VIRTIO v1.2 document exists yet. Seems very likely to be included since it is merged.
- VIRTIO-SND kernel driver exists but implementations on virtual platforms (QEMU) still lacking. Part way done on Trout it seems...
- It is being developed but we can't rely that it will be done for AMM demo.
- Plan is therefore to use a simplified VSOCK transfer instead, exporting the audio. (A step in the right direction since VIRTIO-SND implementations are likely to use VSOCK)
- The plan remains to start building a framework for external audio and as a first implementation set up a WebRTC server running on the "host" that can consume the data from the VSOCK connection.
- The usage of WebRTC also fulfils a desire from Wassim to build a flexible simulation/processing/tinkering framework that can be executed on developer machines by way of a Web browser providing the user interface. (i.e. not only production, but development tools support).
- Why WebRTC?? Summarized:
- Easy demo - just "send a URL to someone, they open it in web a browser". It is also convenient way to create a user interface
- Bigger context: Create an abstraction of target sound environment, which may develop into a flexible (desktop) development environment for exploring/developing audio related functions.
- (Gunnar added offline): The fact that "real" Android is still part of this abstract development system makes it relevant for developing and testing real audio functions. I imagine you could even do Hardware in the loop setups...
- But also: WebRTC might be a possible actual "production" protocol for audio connection to a remote server. (Example use case that needs this: off-board speech processing)
- Pulseaudio? Might be an easy solution to implement some of the control channel parts for the demo.
- NEXT : Need to start breaking down the design into more details, included software components
- 1) Find existing implementations of component parts (e.g. WebRTC – Unknown User (wassim.filali)mentioned there are implementations available, let's point to them)
- 2) What parts still do not exist - need to be developed
- And of course: Confirm the overall demonstration use case and plan to guide the breakdown.

- Wassim sent a link before the meeting. A very useful documentation page describing the principles for Audio Focus in the latest AOSP is this page:
https://source.android.com/devices/automotive/audio/audio-focus - Quick updates for Suhasini who is 'glad to be back'. Continued focus on external-audio track is good.
- We reviewed last week quickly and decided to do offline reading of the documentation and come back next week for more discussion.

CI/Testing
Gunnar: Shortly about Go issues sorted out. Both Lava and Go.CD updated to latest versions. Go now behind NGINX proxy (it used to handle its own SSL/TLS but this is more standard). Some breakage to sort out -- large artifact transfers were being truncated, etc. NGINX settings sort this out.

- Slides from Wassim about the two models inside and outside of AA
- discussion of the cases/features that we are trying to solve
- checking the Audio Manager to decide whether or not it needs an update
Minutes
- 2 strategies or options:
- android provides sources and sinks
- Android controls the complete systems
- We will not discuss the need to have such options
- Basically some functions cannot be integrated to AA
- Audio sources coming from android or from external (android not aware of them)
- Each strategy has limitations and can be criticized
- Idea is to get each model and apply to it questions/cases
- Questions like safety sources, raw streams, etc.
