It's a fairly hefty change for -rc4. ?From the sounds of it you just need to add the constraint?
it is also broken because of the additional requirement of needing to estimate the current position of the DMA transfer. The changes in pcm_lib.c have made it non-functional. When I went into fix those problems I found a couple more issues. It's ok for i2s to be broken in this release, Grant and I both know it is broken and won't ship anything based on it.
Well, if you don't see any need to fix it then I guess that's OK. We should probably disable the Kconfig option for the release in case people try to use the driver, though.
I'll add a patch setting Kconfig BROKEN. Is it ok to do the reorg after flagging it BROKEN?
The pcm_lib.c changes may have broken other embedded drivers too. And
I see no reason to suspect that embedded drivers will be any more or less affected than any other ALSA driver?
The way I'm looking at the code, any CPU hardware that can't report the position of a partially complete DMA transfer is probably broken. Is the mpc5200 the only CPU that doesn't support this?
