I'd like to announce the 1.0 release of Sound Open Firmware (SOF) is available for download on git.alsa-project.org.
SOF is an open source BSD licensed audio DSP firmware that currently runs on Cadence xtensa architecture DSPs found on Intel Baytrail, Braswell and Cherrytrail based devices, however SOF is architecture and platform independent meaning it's not tightly coupled to xtensa DSPs or Intel CPUs/SoCs.
The 1.0 release supports limited playback and capture topologies alongside volume, mixing and sample format conversion.
Good job! This is a very important cornerstone in being able to continue to provide good out-of-the-box audio support for systems which feature this kind of hardware. Thanks for all the effort you and everybody else who worked on this have put into it.
