I've been working on upstreaming the bdw-rt5650 machine driver for the Acer Chromebase 24 (buddy). There seems to be an issue when first setting the hardware controls that appears to be crashing the DSP:

This happens roughly 50% of the time when first setting hardware controls after a reboot. The other 50% of the time the DSP comes up just fine and audio works fine thereafter. Adding "#define DEBUG 1" to sound/soc/intel/haswell/sst-haswell-ipc.c makes the issue occur much less frequently in my testing. Seems like a subtle timing issue.
There were timing issues encountered during the bringup of the 2015 chromebook pixel (samus) which uses the bdw-rt5677 machine driver. Those were slightly different, and manifested during repeated arecords. Both devices use the same revision of the sst2 firmware.
Any ideas for how to debug this?
this could be trying to send an IPC while you are already waiting for one to complete. we've seen this before with SOF, if the IPCs are not strictly serialized then things go in the weeds and timeout.

In this case it looks like the DSP boot failed leading to the IPC timeout? WOndering if increasing the boot timeout would help?
Yes, that too. The boot timeout is typically experimentally defined, and never decreasing due to platform variations... I am still leaning more on the side of an side effect between two IPCs, the added DEBUG points to the printk which solves timing issues. The boot timeout would typically not be impacted by such changes.
