Hi, Takashi I developed the hdmi audio driver for new chipset MCP89 and GT21x. The new HAD controller and codec support standard HDMI operation.
I attached the patch file, please check it.
Wei Ni,
Can we avoid the big copy&paste and do more code reuse? This benefits all of us in long term.
The plan is to merge all current patch_*hdmi.c into one. But this can be done later once after we get the working driver for the new Nvidia codecs.
The new Nvidia HDMI codec is a bit tricky (which has 4 separate codec slots), so I'd like to get it working first.
OK, it makes sense to solve one problem at a time.
Wei Ni, would you ensure these naming rules:
- unmodified functions: keep the original function name hdmi_* (if the original function name is intelhdmi_*, rename it to hdmi_*)
- modified function: rename function name to nvhdmi_* (if the original function name is hdmi_*, rename it to intel_hdmi_*)
And do the same for data structures, enums, variables, etc.
This hopefully will make it easier to do the future merge.
Thanks, Fengguang
