Don't use Integer in bindings

[vmchale]

Is there any reason the Integer type is used? I'd like type signatures downstream to use Ints instead of Integers. Or really anything efficient (I assume ALSA doesn't bind GMP?)

[ttuegel]

The ALSA API uses the C int type (Haskell CInt type), which has a wider range than Int. GHC represents small Integer values as Int without using GMP, so I would be surprised if this was a bottleneck. Still, I agree it would be ideal if the Haskell interface used a type with the same representation as the C API; would it be awkward if the Haskell interface used CInt?

I'd be satisfied with CInt, yes. I think Int is probably the same thing barring some odd platform, but it is easy to convert either way.
