在Andorid音频开发中，我们会看到叫做 REMOTE_SUBMIX 的音频类型，相应地在底层会有 AUDIO_DEVICE_OUT_REMOTE_SUBMIX 和 AUDIO_DEVICE_IN_REMOTE_SUBMIX 音频设备，在 audio_policy.conf 配置文件中也能看到 r_submix 设备。这次在开发中终于看到了这类音频的使用场景——使设备通过 WiFi 向 ChromeCast 设备传输 HDMI 数据（HDMI 同时含有视频数据和音频数据）。

REMOTE_SUBMIX 表示被传输至远程接收设备（比如 WiFi 显示器，这次开发中使用的就是将 ChromeCast 设备接到一个显示器上）的音频，这类音频数据流会被重定向至远程输出而非在本地扬声器或耳机播放。但如果这其中包含了 STREAM_RING、STREAM_ALARM、STRAM_NOTIFICATION 这类音频数据，被包含的这些数据不会被发送到远程。

# Global configuration section: lists input and output devices always present on the device
# as well as the output device selected by default.
# Devices are designated by a string that corresponds to the enum in audio.h

global_configuration {
  attached_output_devices AUDIO_DEVICE_OUT_CUSTOM|AUDIO_DEVICE_OUT_SPEAKER
  default_output_device AUDIO_DEVICE_OUT_SPEAKER
  attached_input_devices AUDIO_DEVICE_IN_BUILTIN_MIC|AUDIO_DEVICE_IN_REMOTE_SUBMIX
}

#全局配置部分：列出了设备上总是存在的输入输出设备，它也是系统默认选择的输出设备
#这里的输入输出设备必须是audio.h中列出的枚举类

attached_output_devices：已连接的输出设备；
default_output_device：默认输出设备；
attached_input_devices：已连接的输入设备；

# audio hardware module section: contains descriptors for all audio hw modules present on the
# device. Each hw module node is named after the corresponding hw module library base name.
# For instance, "primary" corresponds to audio.primary.<device>.so.
# The "primary" module is mandatory and must include at least one output with
# AUDIO_OUTPUT_FLAG_PRIMARY flag.
# Each module descriptor contains one or more output profile descriptors and zero or more
# input profile descriptors. Each profile lists all the parameters supported by a given output
# or input stream category.
# The "channel_masks", "formats", "devices" and "flags" are specified using strings corresponding
# to enums in audio.h and audio_policy.h. They are concatenated by use of "|" without space or "\n".

#audio hardware module部分：包含了对设备上的所有的audio hw modules的descriptors，每一个hw module节点
#的名字都与相应的so库名称相对应，例如："primary"对应audio.primary.<device>.so。其中"primary"module是
#必须的，而且它必须包含一个含AUDIO_OUTPUT_FLAG_PRIMARY标志的output，每一个module的descriptor必须至少
#包含一个output配置descriptor和大于等于0个的input配置descriptor，每一个配置都描述了输入输出流类型支持
#的参数，其中的 "channel_masks"、"formats"、"devices"和"flags"必须为audio.h、audio_policy.h中定义的枚
#举值，它们可以通过|连接，但不能包含空格和"\n"。

定义了系统支持的所有音频接口参数信息，比如primary、a2dp、usb、r_submix。每种音频接口包含输入输出，每种输入输出又包含多种输入输出配置，每种输入输出配置又支持多种音频设备。
