Creates a sequencer port on the current client. The attributes of created port is specified in info argument.

The client field in info argument is overwritten with the current client id. The port id to be created can be specified via snd_seq_port_info_set_port_specified. You can get the created port id by reading the port pointer via snd_seq_port_info_get_port.

Each port has the capability bit-masks to specify the access capability of the port from other clients. The capability bit flags are defined as follows:

- SND_SEQ_PORT_CAP_READ Readable from this port
- SND_SEQ_PORT_CAP_WRITE Writable to this port.
- SND_SEQ_PORT_CAP_SYNC_READ For synchronization (not implemented)

- SND_SEQ_PORT_CAP_DUPLEX Read/write duplex access is supported
- SND_SEQ_PORT_CAP_SUBS_READ Read subscription is allowed
- SND_SEQ_PORT_CAP_SUBS_WRITE Write subscription is allowed
- SND_SEQ_PORT_CAP_NO_EXPORT Subscription management from 3rd client is disallowed

Each port has also the type bitmasks defined as follows:

- SND_SEQ_PORT_TYPE_SPECIFIC Hardware specific port
- SND_SEQ_PORT_TYPE_MIDI_GENERIC Generic MIDI device
- SND_SEQ_PORT_TYPE_MIDI_GM General MIDI compatible device
- SND_SEQ_PORT_TYPE_MIDI_GM2 General MIDI 2 compatible device
- SND_SEQ_PORT_TYPE_MIDI_GS GS compatible device
- SND_SEQ_PORT_TYPE_MIDI_XG XG compatible device
