Commit bbbe33900d1f3c added functionality to restrict PCM parameters based on ELD info (derived from EDID data) of the audio sink.
However, it wrongly assumes that the bits 0-2 of the first byte of CEA Short Audio Descriptors mean a supported number of channels. In reality, they mean the maximum number of channels (as per CEA-861-D 7.5.2). This means that the channel count can only be used to restrict max_channels, not min_channels.
Restricting min_channels causes us to deny opening the device in stereo mode if the sink only has SADs that declare larger numbers of channels (like Primare SP32 AV Processor does).
Fix that by not restricting min_channels based on ELD information.
Yes, re-reading the CEA-861-D spec, that makes sense. Comments inline though.
BTW, I noticed that no SADs are required if only basic audio is supported. Is that case handled by the ELD parser? I.e. instead of:
pcm->channels_max = 0;Should it be:
pcm->channels_max = 0; if supports basic audio: pcm->channels_max = 2;or something like that?
Yes, same for rates. I'll followup on that with a separate patch, thanks :)
Sounds good to me.

I think this should go to 2.6.36 stable tree as well. It does not affect earlier stable releases.

Shouldn't that be:
pcm->channels_min = pcm->channels_min;Or, is that assignment already made earlier as a default?
pcm->channels_min = pcm->channels_min; does not make sense, I assume you meant pcm->channels_min = codec_pars->channels_min;
Oops.
*codec_pars is originally copied from *pcm in hdmi_pcm_open() of patch_hdmi.c, so yes, the assignment would be superfluous.
OK.

Not AFAICS. By default *hinfo has the codec provided parameters, and if we never update it from the ELD info, we don't need to restore it either.
OK. Doesn't the same argument apply to the following 3 lines too then?
