[PATCH V2] ASoC: soc-core: Prevent warning if no DMI table is present
Many systems do not use ACPI and hence do not provide a DMI table. On non-ACPI systems a warning, such as the following, is printed on boot.
WARNING KERN tegra-audio-graph-card sound: ASoC: no DMI vendor name!
The variable 'dmi_available' is not exported and so currently cannot be used by kernel modules without adding an accessor. However, it is possible to use the function is_acpi_device_node() to determine if the sound card is an ACPI device and hence indicate if we expect a DMI table to be present. Therefore, call is_acpi_device_node() to see if we are using ACPI and only parse the DMI table if we are booting with ACPI.

[1/1] ASoC: soc-core: Prevent warning if no DMI table is present commit: c014170408bcd2e8fc726802ed16794d358742ff
All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.
You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.
If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced.
Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail.
Thanks, Mark

That change introduces a regression on all our tests: the names are not correctly set, which will prevent UCM from loading the relevant profiles based on the long name.
Before: 0 [sofhdadsp ]: sof-hda-dsp - sof-hda-dsp AAEON-UP_WHL01-V1.0
After: root@plb-UP-WHL01:/proc/asound# more cards 0 [sofhdadsp ]: sof-hda-dsp - sof-hda-dsp sof-hda-dsp
The problem is that the cards are platform devices created by the parent (which itself may be a PCI or ACPI device) and have nothing to do with ACPI.
Could we flip the logic and instead explicitly detect OF devices? That restores functionality for us.
Jon, would this work for you?
Thanks!

Just change it to a system level check for ACPI, checking for OF would leave problems for board files or any other alternative firmware interfaces.

did you mean if (!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ACPI)) ?

Is there a runtime check?

Well, basically both DMI and ACPI are completely different things, so I don't think it's right to check the availability of ACPI as a signal of the availability of DMI.

Build time dependencies aren't going to help anything, arm64 (and to my understanding some future x86 systems, LynxPoint IIRC) supports both DT and ACPI and so you have kernels built with support for both.

well, that's what I suggested initially: if (is_of_node(card->dev->fwnode))
I used the of_node test as a proxy for 'no DMI' since I am not aware of any means to detect if DMI is enabled at run-time.

Can we not fix the DMI code so it lets us check dmi_available either directly or with an accessor? I don't understand why all the proposals are dancing around local bodges here.

Sounds good to me. I would have done the same if I had known that the current solution would have caused this regression.

Well, basically both DMI and ACPI are completely different things, so I don't think it's right to check the availability of ACPI as a signal of the availability of DMI.
In theory they are only somewhat related, but in practice they're both part of a holistic system model - ACPI users complain if their system does not also provide DMI information.
