[PATCH 0/3] ASoC: grace time for DPCM cleanup
Hi Mark, Pierre-Louis Cc each ASoC driver maintainer
As we discussed in [1], we don't need to use dpcm_playback/capture flag, so we remove it. But we have been using it for 10 years, some driver might get damage. The most likely case is that the device/driver can use both playback/capture, but have only one flag, and not using xxx_only flag. [1/3] patch indicates warning in such case.
And because of its history, DPCM has been checking CPU side only. But it should check Codec side too same as non-DPCM. Some device/driver has been bypassed this check. It should be error. [2/3] patch indicates warning in such case.
Because dpcm_xxx flag is no longer used by [1/3] patch, snd_soc_dai_link_set_capabilities() is no longer needed. [3/3] patch remove it.
These adds grace time for DPCM cleanup. I'm not sure when dpcm_xxx will be removed, and Codec check bypass will be error, but maybe v6.11 or v6.12 ? Please check each driver by that time.

I have been wondering why DPCM needs special flag (= dpcm_playback/capture) to use it. Below is the history why it was added to ASoC.
(A) In beginning, there was no dpcm_xxx flag on ASoC. It checks channels_min for DPCM, same as current non-DPCM. Let's name it as "validation check" here.
if (rtd->dai_link->dynamic || rtd->dai_link->no_pcm) { if (cpu_dai->driver->playback.channels_min) playback = 1; if (cpu_dai->driver->capture.channels_min) capture = 1;
(B) commit 1e9de42f4324 ("ASoC: dpcm: Explicitly set BE DAI link supported stream directions") force to use dpcm_xxx flag on DPCM. According to this commit log, this is because "Some BE dummy DAI doesn't set channels_min for playback/capture". But we don't know which DAI is it, and not know why it can't/don't have channels_min. Let's name it as "no_chan_DAI" here. According to the code and git-log, it is used as DCPM-BE and is CPU DAI. I think the correct solution was set channels_min on "no_chan_DAI" side, not update ASoC framework side. But everything is under smoke today.
if (rtd->dai_link->dynamic || rtd->dai_link->no_pcm) { playback = rtd->dai_link->dpcm_playback; capture = rtd->dai_link->dpcm_capture;
(C) commit 9b5db059366a ("ASoC: soc-pcm: dpcm: Only allow playback/capture if supported") checks channels_min (= validation check) again. Because DPCM availability was handled by dpcm_xxx flag at that time, but some Sound Card set it even though it wasn't available. Clearly there's a contradiction here. I think correct solution was update Sound Card side instead of ASoC framework. Sound Card side will be updated to handle this issue later (commit 25612477d20b ("ASoC: soc-dai: set dai_link dpcm_ flags with a helper"))
if (rtd->dai_link->dynamic || rtd->dai_link->no_pcm) { ... playback = rtd->dai_link->dpcm_playback && snd_soc_dai_stream_valid(cpu_dai, ...); capture = rtd->dai_link->dpcm_capture && snd_soc_dai_stream_valid(cpu_dai, ...);
This (C) patch should have broken "no_chan_DAI" which doesn't have channels_min, but there was no such report during this 4 years. Possibilities case are as follows - No one is using "no_chan_DAI" - "no_chan_DAI" is no longer exist : was removed ? - "no_chan_DAI" is no longer exist : has channels_min ?
Because of these history, this dpcm_xxx is unneeded flag today. But because we have been used it for 10 years since (B), it may have been used differently. For example some DAI available both playback/capture, but it set dpcm_playback flag only, in this case dpcm_xxx flag is used as availability limitation. We can use playback_only flag instead in this case, but it is very difficult to find such DAI today.
Let's add grace time to remove dpcm_playback/capture flag.
This patch don't use dpcm_xxx flag anymore, and indicates warning to use xxx_only flag if both playback/capture were available but using only one of dpcm_xxx flag, and not using xxx_only flag.

Current DCPM is checking CPU side availability only, but it should also check Codec availability. But because of long DPCM operation history, it is possible that the some Codec driver check have been bypassed.
It should be error, but let's add grace time to update driver.
This patch indicates warning in above case. Each applicable driver need to update during this grace time.

dpcm_xxx flags are no longer needed.
We need to use xxx_only flags instead if needed, but snd_soc_dai_link_set_capabilities() user adds dpcm_xxx if playback/catpure were available. Thus converting dpcm_xxx to xxx_only is not needed. Just remove it.

Hi Kuninori-san,
I have tested this series on an Amlogic device (vim3l) This brings warnings for cases which are perfectly fine.
For example, one of the DPCM backends is the TDM interface. This interface is capable of both playback and capture. It can be associated with any i2s/TDM codec.
The codec may do playback and capture too, but it may also do a single direction. Then usual example is the hdmi codec which does playback only.
In this case I get: axg-sound-card sound: CPU capture is available but Codec capture is not (be.dai-link-6) Please update Codec driver
I don't think this is right.

I'm not too sure I undestand this. I'll try to illustrate the case raising the warning as precisely as possible bellow

Sorry. There are some national holidays in France. I'm not spending much time near the keyboard ATM
But I noticed that we want to update below. I'm happy if it can solve your issue.
- if (has_playback && !has_playback_both)
- if (has_playback && !has_playback_both && !dai_link->capture_only) dev_warn(rtd->card->dev, ...)
- if (has_capture && !has_capture_both)
- if (has_capture && !has_capture_both && !dai_link->playback_only) dev_warn(rtd->card->dev, ...)
Honestly I'm a bit lost in all these flag :/

Better picture are available in the SoC doc. There is publicly available datasheet here [1]
Audio paths are displayed in Section 9, page 807, Figure 9-1. A TDM interface in this figure is combination of a TDMOUT and a TDMIN (axg-tdm-formatter.c). The axg-tdm-interface.c joins them because they use the same pads and clocks.

Hi Jerome
Thank you for your reply
If so, did you get below warning too ? "both playback/capture are available, but not using playback_only flag (%s)\n",
I've checked. No such trace, no.
OK, thanks
Card dpcm_playback = (0 or 1) dpcm_capture = (0 or 1) playback_only = (0 or 1) capture_only = (0 or 1) BE.CPU playback = (available, not available) capture = (available, not available) BE.Codec playback = (available, not available) capture = (available, not available) Expect playback = (available, not available) capture = (available, not available)
I'm not too sure I undestand this. I'll try to illustrate the case raising the warning as precisely as possible bellow
Thanks
Because you got was
(A) axg-sound-card sound: CPU capture is available but Codec capture is not (be.dai-link-6) Please update Codec driver
It is for BE. And validation check is for each rtd only, this means it checks BE only, relationship with other rtd is not related here.
-------- |CPU BE| This is the TDM interface. Capable of both Playback and -------- Capture. Through routing it can be connected to Playback ^ and/or Capture FE CPUs. | V ------------- |BE Codec(s)| Possibly N codecs, supporting both direction, or a ------------- Single one, or one direction each. In this particular case | it is Playback only C2C.
So, I think the warning happen here. The validation check is checking this BE only.
As I mentioned above, you use this BE through playback only FE and/or C2C, but that relationship is not related to here.
According to above explanation, this BE itself is available for both playback and capture. And you didn't get below warning, I guess this BE has both dpcm_playback/capture flag, and no xxx_only flag.
"both playback/capture are available, but not using playback_only flag (%s)\n",
Before my patch, the validation check is checks CPU-BE only, but it also checks BE-Codec after my patch, and you got the warning (A).
So, I guess your BE-Codec simply missing capture channels_min settings. Please double check it, or please tell me which codec driver this BE is using.
static struct snd_soc_dai_driver xxx_dai = { ... .playback = { ... .channels_min = x, ... }, .capture = { ... => .channels_min = x, ... }, },
But I noticed that we want to update below. I'm happy if it can solve your issue.
- if (has_playback && !has_playback_both)
- if (has_playback && !has_playback_both && !dai_link->capture_only) dev_warn(rtd->card->dev, ...)
- if (has_capture && !has_capture_both)
- if (has_capture && !has_capture_both && !dai_link->playback_only) dev_warn(rtd->card->dev, ...)
Honestly I'm a bit lost in all these flag :/
Thanks, no problem, me too :9
Unfortunately and confusingly, there are many combination exist around here. But because of your feedback, I noticed one missing pattern. Thanks
Thank you for your help !!

"both playback/capture are available, but not using playback_only flag (%s)\n",
Apparently so, but it should not.
Before your patchset, axg-card.c (and gx-card.c) relied on snd_soc_dai_link_set_capabilities() to init dpcm_playback/capture flags.
That was done following another semantic change on those flags: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/so...
- 1st problem: I see that following your removal of snd_soc_dai_link_set_capabilities(), the dpcm_playback/capture flags are no longer properly initialised in the amlogic card drivers. That will need fixing.
Then, for TDM backends (like here), the tdm slots are checked and the direction is disabled if it has no slots: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/soun...
In theory, dpcm_capture should be 0 for this link which has no Rx slot: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/arch...
... Sooo, that is 2nd problem
Before my patch, the validation check is checks CPU-BE only, but it also checks BE-Codec after my patch, and you got the warning (A).
Yes I've got that. I was not expecting a failure on this case TBH.
I was more looking for the infamous 2 codecs case, each with a single direction (which I did not check yet ...)
So, I guess your BE-Codec simply missing capture channels_min settings. Please double check it, or please tell me which codec driver this BE is using.
Here the codec: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/soun...
static struct snd_soc_dai_driver xxx_dai = { ... .playback = { ... .channels_min = x, ... }, .capture = { ... => .channels_min = x, ... },
This codec is not meant to have capture channels. I think DT description and the card driver settings (before the removal of snd_soc_dai_link_set_capabilities()) are correct.
IMO, those check become too restrictive. We are adding a lot of code I'm not sure I understand what we stand by going so far in the consistency checks.
Initially those dpcm_playback/capture flag could be used to just forcefully disable a link direction, regardless of the CPUs or codecs present on the link. It was just another setting and it was not required to be consistent with anything. It just declared whether the direction was allowed on the link, or not.
It changed this commit, and the flags suddenly needed to be consistent with whatever was on link: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/so...
I complained back then and I still don't think this change was good.
If the flags needs to consistent with what is on the link, and we have the ability to check it, why let card drivers set it and then complain about it in ASoC checks ? Why not deal with it in the framework directly ?
I think the simplest solution would to just go back to the initial meaning of these flags which was just the card driver declaring the direction allowed/disallowed on a link. Then ASoC can mix that information with whatever it finds with DAI drivers and figure out what is actually possible.
It would give a clear and separate semantic meaning to those flags instead something redundant with the DAI driver info.
What we have currently is not straight forward to set and check. It makes the code unnecessarily complicated and difficult to maintain. I think the difficulties with this patchset are a good illustration of that, unfortunately.

Hi Jerome
Thank you for your feedback and analysis !

(snip)

OK, I see. Thank you for your analysis.
The problem was my patch checks CPU direction vs Codec direction only, thus, it will indicates unexpected warnings, like this case.
Thank you for finding it, I hope v2 patch should be OK for you.

By this patch-set, it will be handled automatically via CPU and Codec driver settings, Card driver will no longer need to consider about direction (like non-DPCM), and I hope people (including you) will be happy about that.
Thank you for your help !!

If it makes things simpler, I am happy for sure :)
However, I'm a bit confused. If it is handled automatically by the CPUs and Codecs settings, does it mean dpcm_playback/capture flags are no-ops from now on ?
Should I update my card drivers to ditch those flags completely ?
May I still disable a direction on a link from the card driver, like in the case I described above, when a TDM link has no slots for a direction ?
Thank you for your help !!

Hi Jerome

Yes. dpcm_playback/capture flag itself will be exist for a while, but it will be removed soon (v6.11 ? v6.12 ? not yet fixed).
Some driver might is using dpcm_xxx flag as limitation of direction. For example HW can use both playback/capture, but driver want to use playback only, in this case, driver might have dpcm_playback flag only.
In this case, driver authoer need to update to use playback_only flag instead. [1/3] patch will indicate warning about it, for a while.
Should I update my card drivers to ditch those flags completely ?
If the driver is using dpcm_xxx flag as limitation of direction, driver author need to update to use xxx_only flag. If the driver have no such flag miss, I will remove all dpcm_xxx flags when end of its support. Of course we can avoid extra problem if each driver author remove/update it by themself, instead of me ;P
May I still disable a direction on a link from the card driver, like in the case I described above, when a TDM link has no slots for a direction ?
For example, in case of CPU can handle both playback/capture, and Codec handles playback only, it will be playback only automatically, no Card settings is needed.
If both CPU/Codec can handle playback/capture, but you want to enable playback only, you can use playback_only flag.
Is it help you ?
Thank you for your help !!

Makes sense. I'll check your v2 and prepare the update of the related card driver
