This patch definitely breaks the i.mx6 channel alignment. In fact it breaks it so that the channels are never aligned properly.
My test setup is as follows:
- Get vanilla kernel, tag v4.11-rc5
- apply a couple patches to allow AUD4 on the wandboard external
connectors (and disable internal audio)
- Test results: v4.11-rc5 works flawlessly using Arnaud's atest
program. No channel slips, no issues at all.
- Apply this patch, recompile, build.
- Channel alignment fails. The channels never get aligned properly.
What's your test case for the alignment?
I'm not sure what you are asking. The test case I'm testing is: connect SSI to AUD4 on wandboard & physically connect TX -> RX. (as per https://github.com/ccrome/linux-caleb-dev/wiki), then use atest to verify bit-perfection of TX->RX transmission.
Also, you must use a scope on the pins to verify that TX is also in the right location (i.e. it's possible that bot TX and RX are rotated by the same number of samples, thus you could be fooled by a software-only test).
IIRC, you only needed the FIFO to be pre-filled with data input so that SSI will not encounter any FIFO underrun after enabling TE bit. That's why there is a for-loop before this regmap_update_bits().
Well, there was more to it than that IIRC. There were several patches that made it all hang together.
Am I right that the *only* change is this one-liner, and ignore the previous non V2 version of this patch?
regmap_update_bits(regs, CCSR_SSI_SCR, vals->scr, vals->scr);
regmap_update_bits(regs, CCSR_SSI_SCR,CCSR_SSI_SCR_SSIEN | CCSR_SSI_SCR_TE | CCSR_SSI_SCR_RE,CCSR_SSI_SCR_SSIEN | CCSR_SSI_SCR_TE | CCSR_SSI_SCR_RE);However, this patch seems to merely set the RE bit. It shouldn't affect that test case since the SSIEN bit is still set prior to the TE bit.
Heh, well, this patch causes audio to be utterly broken on multi-channel audio :-/
