I think this need a little more explaination on how this is expected to work. From looking at the code what it looks like what happens is you can set a PLL frequency through set_pll but then if that frequency doesn't support the sample rate requested through hw_params it will be changed. This makes me a little nervous, as something explicitly requested is being overwritten automatically.
From RM, we should ensure 5 < PLLN < 13. When i using snd_soc_dai_set_pll
to set pll frequency, it's hard for me to get a common pll out frequency. Sometimes, when codec MCLK or sample rate changed, the pll out frequency also should be changed, otherwise set_pll function will be failed.
I made it to auto select pll frequency when snd_soc_dai_set_pll failed, so that it can support more sample rate, and don't need to set different pll out frequency for different sample rate and different MCLK.
Would it perhaps be better to allow the auto selection of the PLL frequency only when things haven't been manually set, or provide some setting that indicates auto mode?
