[PATCH 00/13] ASoC: topology: Remaining kernel patches

[mengdong.lin]

From: Mengdong Lin <mengdong.lin@linux.intel.com>

This series contains all remaining kernel patches of topology, including
some ABI update to PCM (FrontEnds) and link (BackEnds) objects. We don't
user more series.

User will be able to create BE DAIs and DAI links, configure more for FE
links. Code are verified and can cover reqeust of Intel pre-release
platforms for next year, so ABI should be stable.

Current kernel topology code does not really touch Codec-Codec links 
since there is no user requst atm. We can add support for CC links later
by reusing code and data structures for BE links, and no need to revise
ABI.

[PATCH 01/13] ASoC: topology: Able to create BE DAIs

[mengdong.lin]

From: Mengdong Lin <mengdong.lin@linux.intel.com>

Topology will check with ASoC if a BE DAI already exists by checking
its name. If the BE DAI doesn't exist, topology will create a new one
and the dai_load ops will be called for device specific init.

This doesn't explain in what situation we'd want to dynamically create a
back end, or why we're representing DPCM so directly in the topology -
we really need more words about what the use case is and why this makes
sense.  The expectation would be that back ends refer to physical
objects that exist in the system so it's not clear why we'd be loading
them from topologies (and that even where this makes sense there
wouldn't be any misuse by other users).  This is a bit of a theme here,
the series is adding a bunch of stuff but not explaining why.

Thanks for the review! Sorry for not giving enough background info.

In previous design, we had thought that BE DAI and BE DAI links should 
be created based on ACPI info in BIOS. But unfortunately, the BIOS 
doesn't have enough physical information, so BE DAI & DAI links are hard 
coded in platform and machine driver. But when new platforms are coming 
out with different physical connections, this BIOS gap blocks us from 
sharing a generic driver across platforms. Now the gap in BIOS ACPI info 
still exists, the implementations also vary for different generations of 
platforms, BIOS for public shipped machines cannot change ... So finally 
we fall back to topology to overcome the BIOS gap and make driver 
sharing possible. We have tried creating BE DAI & DAI links to new 
platforms and plan to back port this to upstream drivers for existing 
platforms like SKL.

I'll add this to the commit messages of next version.

Thanks
Mengdong

I don't understand why we're not able to just enumerate all the possible
back ends in the driver and then select the required one at runtime
- even if we do this there's going to be some fairly strict limits on
the set of back ends that can be added.  Do we have any concrete
examples here?

Re: [PATCH 01/13] ASoC: topology: Able to create BE DAIs

[Mengdong Lin]

Hi Mark,

Here is the info from our audio platform enabling team that answers why 
we need this feature. Please review.

Intel platform supports too many different types of DAIs based on the 
platform variant  e.g. I2S, HDA, DMIC and in future there are few more 
like soundwire in the pipelines.

Using this framework our attempt is to create DAI based on what is 
supported on the platform. If the platform does not support HDA then we 
would like not to create the HDA DAIs. e.g. SKL Chrome topology does not 
use HDA Codec and so there is only I2S and DMIC DAIs.

Based on the SoC pin count limitation not all the interface pins are 
taken out of the SoC to connect various peripherals. So even though 
technically hardware supports many physical interfaces but the platform 
may have limited what can be connected on the platform.

Surely we can create worst case number of DAIs but that would be too much.

Here is the example of SKL/BXT:
6 SSP Ports Rx and Tx, 2 DMIC Ports, 7 Playback DMA channels, 6 Capture 
DMA channels.We are creating topology diagram in text to explain 
different configuration for different use case,like Android, Linux, 
Chrome and Automotive.

Thanks
Mengdong

That's just 14 back ends by my count (the SSP and DMIC ports) which
seems totally managable?  Even if you include the DMA it's still not an
absurdly large number especially if you compare it to something like the
number of widgets we actively manage in a running CODEC.

Applied "ASoC: topology: ABI - Add sig_bits to stream caps" to the asoc tree

[Mark Brown]

The patch

   ASoC: topology: ABI - Add sig_bits to stream caps

has been applied to the asoc tree at

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound.git 

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.  

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark

This seems *incredibly* implementation specific.  Why wouldn't the
driver for the thing implementing the topology be able to figure out the
ordering here?  What's the use case?  What happens when we change away
from DPCM?

I'll check if we can let driver figure out this ordering or use some 
more generic name.

We add this trigger ordering as driver developer request and we think 
it's decided by the firmware behavior. We hope firmware properties can 
be covered by topology.

There is another patch (04/13) to add generic flags and flag mask to PCM 
objects. So we'll allow users to set DPCM trigger ordering as flags as 
below, to avoid using trigger[] in ABI. The topology kernel driver will 
check the flag bits and set the proper trigger ordering to FE DAI links. 
If we change away from DPCM in the future, user can stop using these 
flags. And the 32-bit flags seems enough for future extension.

This doesn't seem much better to be honest, it's just shuffling the
problem around.  Why do these things need to be triggered in this
particular order and why is that invisible to the system?

Hi Hardik/Vinod/Rakesh,

Would you please share more info about DPCM trigger ordering used in 
current ADSP firmware? And why we hope to configure this by topology?

Here is Mark's question "Why do these things need to be triggered in 
this particular order and why is that invisible to the system?".

Please see link 
http://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2016-September/112539.html

My mail client lost Mark's mail so I paste the link here.

Hi Mark,

We'll drop support for configuring DPCM trigger ordering in topology, 
and the driver will set this in kernel.

I'll submit the v2 series. Please review.

[PATCH 08/13] ASoC: topology: ABI - Define DAI physical PCM data formats

[mengdong.lin]

From: Mengdong Lin <mengdong.lin@linux.intel.com>

Define DAI physical PCM data formats for user space, so users can specify
the formats of backends by topology (e.g. the DAI format to set on backend
link init).

The kernel will also refer to these formats.

[PATCH 09/13] ASoC: topology: ABI - Add HW configurations to BE/CC links

[mengdong.lin]

From: Mengdong Lin <mengdong.lin@linux.intel.com>

Define the types and ABI struct for a single Backend or Codec<->Codec link
runtime supported hardware config, e.g. audio hardware formats.

The default HW config ID will help topology to find the DAI format to set
on init.

Topology provides this as a fallback if such HW settings are not available
in ACPI or device tree, to avoid hard code in drivers.

It's only for config items that can be programmed by SW or FW, not for
physical things like link connections or GPIO used for HP etc.

[PATCH 12/13] ASoC: Probe link components after finding new links

[mengdong.lin]

From: Mengdong Lin <mengdong.lin@linux.intel.com>

Probing link components may bring new links from topolgy and these new
links may need new components. So there will be multiple rounds of
components probing until there is no new links found during the process.

Probing of aux_dev is moved earlier to simply the code. There is no need
to probe aux_devices multiple times.

Topology will check with ASoC if a BE (Backend) link already exists by

and the link_load ops and card's add_dai_link will be called for machine
