Hi Hardik/Vinod/Rakesh,
Would you please share more info about DPCM trigger ordering used in current ADSP firmware? And why we hope to configure this by topology?
Here is Mark's question "Why do these things need to be triggered in this particular order and why is that invisible to the system?".
Please see link http://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2016-September/112539.h...
My mail client lost Mark's mail so I paste the link here.
Thanks Mengdong

Definition of dynamic PCM trigger ordering is exposed to uapi asoc.h, and topology allows user space to define the trigger ordering for PCM (FE links).
This seems *incredibly* implementation specific. Why wouldn't the driver for the thing implementing the topology be able to figure out the ordering here? What's the use case? What happens when we change away from DPCM?
There is another patch (04/13) to add generic flags and flag mask to PCM objects. So we'll allow users to set DPCM trigger ordering as flags as below, to avoid using trigger[] in ABI. The topology kernel driver will check the flag bits and set the proper trigger ordering to FE DAI links. If we change away from DPCM in the future, user can stop using these flags. And the 32-bit flags seems enough for future extension.
