[PATCH] ASoC: core: restore dpcm flags semantics

[PATCH] ASoC: core: restore dpcm flags semantics

[Jerome Brunet]

commit b73287f0b0745 ('ASoC: soc-pcm: dpcm: fix playback/capture checks')
changed dpcm_playback and dpcm_capture semantic by throwing an error if
these flags are not aligned with DAIs capabilities on the link.

The former semantic did not force the flags and DAI caps to be aligned.
The flag previously allowed card drivers to disable a stream direction on
a link (whether or not such feature is deemed useful).

With change ('ASoC: core: use less strict tests for dailink capabilities')
an error is thrown if the flags and and the DAI caps are not aligned. Those
parameters were not meant to aligned initially. No technical reason was
given about why cards should now be considered "broken" in such condition
is not met, or why it should be considered to be an improvement to enforce
that.

Forcing the flags to be aligned with DAI caps just make the information
the flag carry redundant with DAI caps, breaking a few cards along the way.

This change drops the added error conditions and restore the initial flag
semantics.

 Hi Mark,

 Because b73287f0b0745 ('ASoC: soc-pcm: dpcm: fix playback/capture checks')
 introduced more than one problem, the change
 "ASoC: core: use less strict tests for dailink capabilities" [0] is still
 necessary but the change of semantic remains a problem with it.

 This patch applies on top of it.

or rather lack thereof.

I am ok to move dev_err to dev_warn and remove the return -EINVAL, but I 
maintain that we have to reach a point where configurations make sense 
before we can clean them up. If we implicitly push issues under the rug 
by not even being aware of them we'll never make progress.

Again, why ? All there is so far is your personal preference. no facts.

 * What we had gave capabilities to the link, independent of the DAI
   components. ASoC just computes the intersection of all that to
   determine which direction needs to be enabled. Seems rather simple
   and straight forward.
 * It worked for every user of DPCM so a far.

Your changes:
 * Causes regression
 * Makes information redundant. The code used to build the flag in
   snd_soc_dai_link_set_capabilities() and check it soc_new_pcm() is
   more or less the same. It just adds complexity and waste cycles.

I don't see the upside to it.

But why should we bother the user with that ? How is throwing this
error/warning an improvement ? What does not make sense in the
configuration ? What are we pushing under the rug exactly ?

I'm willing to go your way, even help you out, but you need to:
 * explain concretely why changing the semantics improve the overall
   situation, concretely ?
 * update all the users of DPCM. Causing regression is not OK.

Carrying redundant information makes things complex and error prone.
If you really want to update this, here is another proposition:
 * Removing snd_soc_dai_link_set_capabilities()
 * Removing both flags completely
 * Let ASoC figure out what is needed based on the components present.

What would be the meaning/purpose of a dailink with .dpcm_capture set, 
with only dais that support playback only?

What would be the meaning/purpose of a dailink with .capture_only set, 
but with a dai that supports playback?

What happens if none of these flags are set?

What happens when all these flags are set?

No one seems to know, so my suggestion is to align first on consistent 
configurations, then see what can be removed.

that's what my last patch did, and when there is no intersection it 
complains. Please clarify what you expect when there is no overlap 
between dai and dailink capabilities. Keep in mind that we have a mix of 
hard-codec configuration and DT-created ones, your case is not the 
general one.

>   * It worked for every user of DPCM so a far.

Not completely true, when Morimoto-san added snd_soc_dai_stream_valid() 
it exposed tons of cases where the information on direction was not 
provided in a reliable at the DAI level. I will assert that we are still 
finding out cases with broken DAI configurations, and as a result we 
will also find broken dailink configurations. Your picture of DPCM as a 
perfectly functional system that I broke is a distortion of reality.

The reality is that we have to work in steps, first make sure all DAIs 
are properly described, then work on the dailinks and optimize at a 
later point. we will need warnings to find out what the problem cases 
are, and move slowly.

Right, and I can see a use case for this if someone has a board that
for some reason didn't physically connect one of the directions for some
reason - perhaps they were running out of pins or something.  It's not
clear if anyone's actually doing that though.

I'm not 100% clear, have we actually found cases where the flags are
used or is this something found through inspection and review?

This was all triggered by Morimoto-san's changes like you say.  DPCM has
quite a lot of problems in general, here IIRC the issues were that we
had multiple different ways of doing similar things which it wasn't
quite clear if people were even using.  The intention with the warnings
was to remove them one way or another, they're mainly intended to flush
out actual active usage of the flags as opposed to redundant usage of
them which could be confused/broken.

This could definitely have been clearer in the changelogs though.

One last thing I'd like to understand. Is this behavior of throwing an
error going to applied to the non-DPCM case as well ? so at least thing
are consistent between both cases ?

IOW:
 * An error is now throw if dpcm_capture is set on the link and the CPU
 DAI support playback_only
 * on non-DPCM links, will an error be thrown as well if playback_only
 is not set and the CPU on the link happen to not support capture ?

We should definitely complain about that.

I think we should move towards not needing to do that for DPCM.

If it was not working, it was certainly not clear in the changelog.
What's clear is the regression it caused

My understanding is that that was broadly where we were headed with this
stuff - snd_soc_dai_link_set_capabilities() is trying to figure things
out from the components already, it's storing the flags as a cache but
could be modified so we use it every time we need a value.
