Not checking _LAST format and rate, which are valid indexes in arrays, makes data loss while converting binary to standard ALSA configuration file.
I must be really thick on this one.
alsatplg converts from alsa-conf format to binary topology file. The binary topology file is used by drivers.
In which cases would you convert from binary to alsa-conf files? And what tool would you use?
./alsatplg --decode topology.bin --output decoded_topology.conf, This feature was added around the end of 2019. And why to use it? For binary topologies to which conf files are lost for example. It's easier to analyze and edit it in conf than directly in binary.
I must admit I completely missed this feature, thanks for the clarification.
