// This specifies a diagram using the DOT language. It can be interactively
// viewed with xdot or can generate an image using
// `dot -Tpng alsa_fsm.dot > alsa_fsm.png`
// This was build out of the state transition information from
// linux/sound/core/pcm_native.c and linux/sound/core/pcm_lib.c. Since it is
// intended to help with writing software which uses ALSA's PCM interface, it
// includes every possible transition, even if they are unlikely, rather than
// trying to model a more typical software path.
// snd_pcm_hw_free is called as a result of snd_pcm_close
// snd_pcm_hwsync is called before querying any hardware state such as in
// snd_pcm_avail.
// From the perspective of the state machine, snd_pcm_capture_rewind and
// snd_pcm_playback rewind are the same function so they are not
// distinguished in this diagram. This also holds for the forward
// functions.
// For all states the a SND_PCM_STATE_ prefix has been omitted to clarify
// the state machine.
// For all transitions the snd_pcm_ prefix has been omitted to clarify
// the state machine.
