ALSA: timer: Fix zero-division by continue of uninitialized instance
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
commit 9f8a765 upstream.

When a user timer instance is continued without the explicit start
beforehand, the system gets eventually zero-division error like:

Although a similar issue was spotted and a fix patch was merged in
commit [6b760bb: ALSA: timer: fix division by zero after
SNDRV_TIMER_IOCTL_CONTINUE], it seems covering only a part of
iceberg.

In this patch, we fix the issue a bit more drastically.  Basically the
continue of an uninitialized timer is supposed to be a fresh start, so
we do it for user timers.  For the direct snd_timer_continue() call,
there is no way to pass the initial tick value, so we kick out for the
uninitialized case.
