Hi Takashi,
I abandon this update. Playing a slient stream will be had pop noise. It is hardware issue. It is not to avoid. But it need to read and write our hidden register to control eapd. Resume back need to fill eapd to keep low state. I think I just send the patch to ubuntu team. Thanks.

Keep the function in lower letters.
Also, update the patch description as well (and better to put more words).
Update as attach. Thanks.
Well, do you really want to turn off EAPD at closing the stream?
Yes.
As I repeatedly explained, this results in more frequent EAPD on/off, i.e. more pop noises.
I have sent the patch for HP. I will wait for feedback from customer.
Did you send the test script, too?
No.
If it is solve the issue, I will advise you.
Our AE says, windows use this method. HP is agree this usage.
Windows does this likely because of possible power saving, not because of pop noises.
I'm fine to take the patch, but only when I'm convinced why it really fixes the pop noise problem in the scenario below:
- playing a silent stream
- frequent open / close a stream
You are right. It is the key points. But I think first stream will show pop noise. It was hard to remove. Keep EAPD to high after first stream start maybe a good idea. Thanks. I think to request the machine is better. I will let our AE to request the machine.
