I don't really understand what this means or why this is not runtime configured.
By runtime configured, do you mean passing the channel grouping through machine file? Is there any specific callback that I can use?
No, this appears to just be setting the number of channels which is normally configured depending on how many channels userspace is playing.
This audio driver uses 'params_channels()' to determine the number of channels requested by userspace in TDM mode (multiple channels on one audio port). Channel grouping is another mode where more than one audio ports are grouped together to form 3.1 or 5.1 surround sound and this feature has been implemented through device tree settings. At this point, I will take out channel grouping functionality because it does not work as intended. In near future, once this feature is fixed, how do you suggest implementing it in the driver?
Thanks, Simran
