linux-next: manual merge of the sound tree with the arm-soc tree

linux-next: manual merge of the sound tree with the arm-soc tree

[Stephen Rothwell]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1813 bytes --]

Hi Takashi,

Today's linux-next merge of the sound tree got conflicts in:

  arch/arm64/boot/dts/nvidia/tegra194-p2972-0000.dts
  arch/arm64/boot/dts/nvidia/tegra210-p2597.dtsi

between commits:

  5eef17ee764d ("arm64: tegra: p2972: Sort nodes properly")
  be4f0dd347ad ("arm64: tegra: p2597: Sort nodes by unit-address")

from the arm-soc tree and commit:

  11ce4308307c ("arm64: tegra: custom name for hda sound card")

from the sound tree.

I fixed it up (see below - in tegra194-p2972-0000.dts. the line added
just needed to be moved up a few lines) and can carry the fix as
necessary. This is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any
non trivial conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer
when your tree is submitted for merging.  You may also want to consider
cooperating with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any
particularly complex conflicts.

The merge looks fine to me, but I wonder about that commit
in the alsa tree, why does the sound card need a board specific
name?

I see this property being used in commit c0bde003a013 ("ALSA:
hda/tegra: sound card name from device tree"), which removes
a questionable use of the root compatible property, replacing
it with the new 'nvidia,model' property. We don't do this for any
other subsystem, so why does the sound subsystem export
information about the board as a string here?

(added ASoC maintainers to Cc for insight).

The sound subsystem exports merely some understandable name string
for the given sound card object, and that was composed from the
compatible string in the past, which turned out to be useless on some
configs.

But this kind of addition is an extremely bad manner, I'm fine to
revert these (at best with a better alternative).  This isn't about
any functionality but rather some readable information that isn't a
part of API.


thanks,

Takashi

The motivation for adding custom sound card name is following,
1. When for boards, multiple HDMI/DP ports are exposed, it is sometimes
    necessary to know the default port or any customization for that matter.
    Audio userspace can distinguish based on the sound card names.
2. Multiple sound cards can coexist for a platform, the indication of 
particular
    audio path is useful.
3. It can help to customize audio paths.
    Generally people use "*,model" property in DT to name the sound complex.
    Ex: "samsung,model" [sound/soc/samsung/snow.c]
        "rockchip,model" [sound/soc/rockchip/rockchip_rt5645.c]

It is not extremely bad, but it is at the minimum surprising.

I see, I had not noticed those before. They do seem a little unusual,
and inconsistent, as the samsung sames are always names the board
there, but rockchip doesn't: one board names it just "I2C", the other
one uses "VEYRON-I2S", and the example in the documentation lists
"ROCKCHIP-I2S" and "Analog audio output", each of them following
different naming systems.

In Documentation/devicetree/bindings/sound/qcom,apq8096.txt, a
"qcom,model" property is listeds as "Obsolete", and replaced by
a "model" property. This is in turn also used on amlogic, freescale,
and some samsung platforms.

My impression here is that the idea of passing a model name
through DT is well established, but for new stuff, we probably
want to standardize on plain "model" rather than "$vendor,model".

It's also useful since sound cards can be electically identical but
prefer different configuration due to the plastics (eg, a smaller
speaker was fitted, different outputs have different labels or playing
the speaker at full volume causes some models to have unpleasant effects
while others handle it fine).

Yes.

linux-next: manual merge of the sound tree with the arm-soc tree

[Stephen Rothwell]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1257 bytes --]

Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the sound tree got conflicts in:

  sound/soc/cirrus/ep93xx-ac97.c
  sound/soc/pxa/e740_wm9705.c
  sound/soc/pxa/e750_wm9705.c
  sound/soc/pxa/e800_wm9712.c
  sound/soc/ti/davinci-vcif.c

between commits:

  2b45e1fa9398 ("ASoC: remove unused ep93xx files")
  efe81e9a9273 ("ASoC: remove unused davinci support")
  b401d1fd8053 ("ASoC: pxa: remove unused board support")

from the arm-soc tree and commits:

  f2211ac36ab0 ("ASoC: pxa: e740_wm9705: Drop empty platform remove function")
  4ed923e8076b ("ASoC: pxa: e750_wm9705: Drop empty platform remove function")
  394296eee2c2 ("ASoC: pxa: e800_wm9712: Drop empty platform remove function")
  0e478b88b257 ("ASoC: cirrus: use helper function")
  2abde57fb82b ("ASoC: ti: use helper function")

from the sound tree.

I fixed it up (I just removed the files) and can carry the fix as
necessary. This is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any
non trivial conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer
when your tree is submitted for merging.  You may also want to consider
cooperating with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any
particularly complex conflicts.
