[alsa-devel] [ANNOUNCE] SOF 1.0 Release
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.
Information about SOF can be found on the ALSA SOF wiki here :-
https://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Firmware
Development for SOF 1.1 has started which will include support for Haswell, Broadwell and Apollolake platform alongside support for SRC and more complex topologies.

Do you plan for a classical tarball release, or it's only over git repo? I'm asking it since I'm considering to package for distro.
thanks,

I can create and host the tarballs on alsa-project.org. Liam, could you add missing pieces to Makefile.am for 'make dist'?
Thanks, Jaroslav

Ah, this is missing some files as everyone's been using git, I'll fix today.
Thanks

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.
