* Latency test program
*
* Author: Jaroslav Kysela <perex@perex.cz>
*
* Author of bandpass filter sweep effect:
* Maarten de Boer <mdeboer@iua.upf.es>
*
* This small demo program can be used for measuring latency between
* capture and playback. This latency is measured from driver (diff when
* playback and capture was started). Scheduler is set to SCHED_RR.
