Today, DisplayPort multi-stream transport (DP-MST) audio is not supported on codec drivers which don't use the audio component (acomp) binding.
The commit ade49db337a9 (ALSA: hda/hdmi - Allow audio component for AMD/ATI and Nvidia HDMI) added the DRM audio component binding for the NVIDIA codec drivers, but the traditional HD-audio unsolicited event code path is still in use by the proprietary NVIDIA graphics driver.
This patch set adds DP-MST audio support for non-acomp codec drivers which use the traditional HD-audio unsolicited event code path. This patch set adds DP-MST support for NVIDIA codecs.
The patch set has been tested for HDMI/DP-SST/DP-MST(4 dp-mst audio streams) configurations on NVIDIA Kepler and Maxwell GPUs, using both the nouveau driver and the proprietary NVIDIA graphics driver.
