The current patches upstream are for the low level parts of the Intel DSP drivers. Jarkko and I still have to upstream the upper layers of the drivers (probably today) and you will also need firmware. Once upstream the drivers will support Valley View, Baytrail, Haswell and Broadwell. The firmware for Baytrail and Valleyview will be available shortly too. Liam
