So I don't think FW name would help, if required we should add dev_info to print the firmware which is getting loaded.
We can't really be relying on userspace trawling through the logs - quite apart from anything else the message might be long gone by the time the relevant program gets started.
Might be an idea to record it in sysfs somewhere?
Yeah, that should be feasible. Also, there is a "component" field assigned to the card. This is supposed to be referred by user-space as additional information. See snd_component_add().
We could also probably put FW versions in sysfs too. Useful for bugs.
