This issue was found during the development of SOF (Sound Open Firmware) where we get the reverse of the intended behavior when using the same conventions in topology files as in machine drivers.
Is this perhaps something that the earlier firmware is handling inside the firmware?
For SKL+ the SSP settings come from binary blobs read from ACPI/NHLT tables so I am wondering if this inversion is compensated for in the tools used to generate the blobs.
Ugh, I'm confused here. Is this a case of SoF differing from the regular firmware somehow - presumably the stuff coming from the NHLT table is the same for both firmwares?
no we are not using the NHLT info for now but using the one provided in topology files. the SOF firmware does not rely on blobs but programs the registers based on masks and settings passed. This difference is precisely how we exposed a difference in behavior.
