[RFT PATCH 0/7] Add Allwinner H3/H5/A64 HDMI audio

[RFT PATCH 0/7] Add Allwinner H3/H5/A64 HDMI audio

[Clément Péron]

Hi,

This is some work done by Marcus Cooper and Jernej Škrabec.
These patches are present in LibreElec kernel and have been
tested by LE users.

I have rework them to follow kernel rules but I can't test
them as I don't have H3, H5 or A64 boards.

If some sunxi users could confirm they worked as expected!

This serie goes in top off "Add H6 I2S support"[0].
You can find a branch for testing here[1].

Thanks,
Clement

I'm not sure what the usual card name should be like though. I would assume that
this should be something specific enough so that you're able to differentiate
between boards / SoC so that the userspace can choose a different configuration
based on it?

If so, it's really too generic.

I really don't know what we should use here,
I just have a look at other SoC:
rk3328: "HDMI"
rk3399: "hdmi-sound"
r8a774c0-cat874: "CAT874 HDMI sound"

But maybe it's time to introduce proper name:
What about :
sun50i-a64-hdmi
sun50i-h6-hdmi
How should we handle this with h3 / h5 ?
settings the simple-audio-card,name in each SoC dts?
Or using sun50i-h3-hdmi as they are both identical?

Clement

I really don't know what we should use here,
I just have a look at other SoC:
rk3328: "HDMI"
rk3399: "hdmi-sound"
r8a774c0-cat874: "CAT874 HDMI sound"

But maybe it's time to introduce proper name:
What about :
sun50i-a64-hdmi
sun50i-h6-hdmi
How should we handle this with h3 / h5 ?
settings the simple-audio-card,name in each SoC dts?
Or using sun50i-h3-hdmi as they are both identical?

It's pretty much what we've been using for the other sound cards we have, so it
makes sense to me.

I have a question regarding the simple-audio-card,name.
In this patch, I would like to introduce a simple-audio-card for the
Allwinner A64 HDMI.

What should be the preferred name for this sound card?
"sun50i-a64-hdmi" ? "allwinner, sun50i-a64-hdmi" ?

Thanks for your tips,

In this patch, I would like to introduce a simple-audio-card for the
Allwinner A64 HDMI.

What should be the preferred name for this sound card?
"sun50i-a64-hdmi" ? "allwinner, sun50i-a64-hdmi" ?

Thanks for your tips,
Clement

The former is more idiomatic for ALSA.

I can at least speak for RK3328, and the reasoning there was that as the 
user looking at what `aplay -l` says, I don't give a hoot about what the 
SoC may be called, I see two cards and I want to know, with the least 
amount of uncertainty, which one will make the sound come out of the 
port that's labelled "HDMI" on the box ;)

I agree. The user really doesn't care what SoC the system uses. The only
real requirement is to be able to tell which output the card is related
to, i.e. is it onboard or an external DAC, is it analog or HDMI, etc..

I agree. The user really doesn't care what SoC the system uses. The only
real requirement is to be able to tell which output the card is related
to, i.e. is it onboard or an external DAC, is it analog or HDMI, etc..

Yeah, but it's exactly the point.

If we also end up with "HDMI" as our card name, then the userspace has no way to
tell anymore if it's running from an rk3328 or an allwinner SoC, or something
else entirely. And therefore it cannot really configure anything to work out of
the box anymore.

Yes the final user doesn't care if it's sun50i A64 HDMI or sun50i H6
HDMI, but like Maxime said between final user and the sound-card name
you may want to have a configuration layer.
This configuration layer can apply different settings depending on the
sound card.
Having too generic name will make impossible specific card configuration.

Also you can have specific name per board which can be quite clear for
final user.
 - sun50i-a64-hdmi
 - sun50i-a64-spdif
is not so hard to understand that one point to the HDMI whereas the
other point to SPDIF.

Clement

Yes the final user doesn't care if it's sun50i A64 HDMI or sun50i H6
HDMI, but like Maxime said between final user and the sound-card name
you may want to have a configuration layer.
This configuration layer can apply different settings depending on the
sound card.
Having too generic name will make impossible specific card configuration.

Also you can have specific name per board which can be quite clear for
final user.
 - sun50i-a64-hdmi
 - sun50i-a64-spdif
is not so hard to understand that one point to the HDMI whereas the
other point to SPDIF.

OK, you're a userspace audio application - enlighten me as to what exact 
chip you're running on here, and why you need to know:

card 0: HDMI [HDA ATI HDMI]

or how about here?

card 0: Intel [HDA Intel]


Furthermore, your argument works both ways - if the equivalent (or in 
common cases like DesignWare IP blocks, exact same) thing across 3 
different SoCs has 3 different names, then it's that much harder for 
userspace that wants to present a consistent behaviour. I don't know 
exactly why LibreELEC have downstream patches that standardise all the 
Rockchip ones to "HDMI", but I can't help noting that they do.

With simple-audio-card we're talking about trivial interfaces that often 
don't expose any controls at all, so there's unlikely to be much 
'configuration' for userspace to do beyond choosing which card to output to.

This combination (DesignWare HDMI controller + I2S) is same as on Rockchip. 
Only difference is slightly different version of HDMI controller and different 
I2S core. Not sure what kind of configuration do you have in mind, but all 
these controllers support 2-8 channels, different sample sizes, even 
passthrough mode can be set (but it's not implemented yet). I would say that 
this audio output supports quiet a few possible configurations.

BTW, above patches were thoroughly tested in LibreELEC. The only missing thing 
is extending I2S driver to support channel allocation through DT, but that's 
outside the scope of this series. Currently only 2 channels will work 
correctly.

Right, what I'm getting at is that the stuff that matters is all regular 
audio capabilities exposed via the appropriate APIs, and any choices are 
going to be mostly based on the audio being played and what the receiver 
on the other end of the link supports. I'm genuinely curious as to what 
actual configuration decision could be made purely based on the SoC 
name, regardless of the board, receiver, or the capabilities advertised 
by the interface itself.

Thanks,

Right, what I'm getting at is that the stuff that matters is all regular 
audio capabilities exposed via the appropriate APIs, and any choices are 
going to be mostly based on the audio being played and what the receiver 
on the other end of the link supports. I'm genuinely curious as to what 
actual configuration decision could be made purely based on the SoC 
name, regardless of the board, receiver, or the capabilities advertised 
by the interface itself.

Robin.

Well, that fact only is already information that is not carried on to the
userspace. Think about it this way: let's say you run Debian, you just installed
it without any configuration, and you don't have any knowledge about the
hardware, you're just a user. Can the OS know how to configure that output based
on the card name "HDMI" alone?

HDMI is an easy one compared to the i2s + codec combinations we might have, but
it already has some interesting differences between hardwares. For example, the
RPi iirc needs an IEC958 format, while this one works just fine with a standard
PCM format.

Well, that fact only is already information that is not carried on to the
userspace. Think about it this way: let's say you run Debian, you just installed
it without any configuration, and you don't have any knowledge about the
hardware, you're just a user. Can the OS know how to configure that output based
on the card name "HDMI" alone?

HDMI is an easy one compared to the i2s + codec combinations we might have, but
it already has some interesting differences between hardwares. For example, the
RPi iirc needs an IEC958 format, while this one works just fine with a standard
PCM format.

That's not really true though. simple-audio-card is used when the connection
between the DAIs is simple. It doesn't mean that the configuration of the CPU
DAI (i2s controller in that case) or the configuration of the codec are simple,
and with pretty featureful codecs, between the various muxes and amps, it can
actually be quite difficult to get the combination of controls you need to
change to output something on the output you expected.

That's not really true though. simple-audio-card is used when the connection
between the DAIs is simple. It doesn't mean that the configuration of the CPU
DAI (i2s controller in that case) or the configuration of the codec are simple,
and with pretty featureful codecs, between the various muxes and amps, it can
actually be quite difficult to get the combination of controls you need to
change to output something on the output you expected.

Heh, those are bad examples.  Although the single HD-audio driver
supports (literally) thousands of different models and hardware
configurations, it's more or less self-contained; i.e. it needs
neither UCM nor exotic setups.  IOW, user-space don't need much to
care about the difference of the hardware.  (Admittedly there are
subtle things to be done for HD-audio, too, but PA can handle it in a
generic way, for example.)

OTOH, in general, ASoC drivers do need the individual setups; that's
almost unavoidable from its design perspective.  Hence, unless the
identical configuration is needed, it'd be wiser to provide different
driver names to identify which setup to be applied.

In the case of HDMI for embedded platforms since there is generally no
control in the audio path it is unlikely to make a *huge* difference,
though if there are expansion buses or multiple HDMI ports it can be
useful to help people identify which particular HDMI port it is.  For
other cards the names are part of userspace working out which config
file to apply to the card so deduplication can help, and also the
plastics tend to matter.

This is a reasonable assumption for HDMI but it is not at all a
reasonable assumption for simple-audio-card in general - just because
the links between the SoC and the external components are simple that
doesn't mean that any of those components are simple, and even if the
hardware is simple that does not mean that configuration is unimportant
- the difference between full scale output and appropriate headphone
volumes is for example *extremely* important.
