[alsa-devel] [PATCH] ASoC: dapm - Add API calls to query valid DAPM paths.
In preparation for ASoC Dynamic PCM (AKA DSP) support.
Add DAPM API calls to determine whether a DAPM audio path is valid between source and sink widgets and return a lits of active widgets in that path. This also takes into account all kcontrol mux and mixer settings in between the source and sink widgets to validate the audio path.
This will be used by the DSP core to determine the runtime DAI mappings between FE and BE DAIs in order to run PCM operations.

Hrm, I'm not entirely sure about this. My overall feeling is that it feels complicated and I'm not comfortable that it's doing something different to the rest of DAPM that doesn't normally get used. It doesn't seem like the tree walk we're doing here should be different enough to the walk we do for the normal power check to require a completely separate implementation and having the two checks feels like it's going to cause issues later on. I may be missing something but shouldn't we be able to replace the current list walk with a walk which uses this sort of interface on each relevant widget it finds?
There's already some drift with things like the callbacks for dynamic routes not being implemented...
It does also occur to me that perhaps what we want to do here is allow widgets to find out about paths when they're being activated anyway? That'd also be useful for things like DVFS charge pumps, sometimes they can easily be controlled with a fake widget but not always if there's complicated digital routing within the device.

The reason for using a separate walk here was because this code is taken from my old auto-router and it was to avoid the extra logic introduced by the auto-router. The auto-router did need to check for loops and always select the shortest path when > 1 path was viable (interesting as WM9713 has both loops and multiple paths). Let me see how cleanly I can merge it into the current walk.
It does also occur to me that perhaps what we want to do here is allow widgets to find out about paths when they're being activated anyway?
For dynamic PCM, we need to also work out which DAIs are active based on the graph. Hence for playback we can supply the DAC/AIF and find out all the connected output AIF/Speakers/Pins/etc. This is required at the start of open() in order that we can call the other PCM ops for each DAI, codec and platform.
That'd also be useful for things like DVFS charge pumps, sometimes they can easily be controlled with a fake widget but not always if there's complicated digital routing within the device.
Yeah, this can also be used to figure out the paths when widgets are activated too. I can export the API calls in order for components to make use of this information when their widgets are activated.

We query by type so that we can qualify the root widget for a shared common stream name. i.e. Dynamic DSP needs to find the AIF rather than a DAC for stream X.

Alternatively could we replace the current walk? It's O(n^2) or so in the number of widgets so it's not the greatest treasure ever. So long as we only have one walk and it works I'm happy.

Right, that's not really what I'm saying though - I'm saying that widgets in general could be interested in this information. For example, some charge pumps can save additional power with some input signal paths (which is currently handled but this would make that code more general).

Why would someone want to query by type? That seems surprising. Name and/or direction yes but type seems hard to find a use for.
We query by type so that we can qualify the root widget for a shared common stream name. i.e. Dynamic DSP needs to find the AIF rather than a DAC for stream X.
It does? Hrm. Perhaps it would make life simpler if we just mandated the use of explicit AIF widgets?

The reason for using a separate walk here was because this code is taken from my old auto-router and it was to avoid the extra logic introduced by the auto-router. The auto-router did need to check for loops and always select the shortest path when > 1 path was viable (interesting as WM9713 has both loops and multiple paths). Let me see how cleanly I can merge it into the current walk.
Alternatively could we replace the current walk? It's O(n^2) or so in the number of widgets so it's not the greatest treasure ever. So long as we only have one walk and it works I'm happy.
It does also occur to me that perhaps what we want to do here is allow widgets to find out about paths when they're being activated anyway?
For dynamic PCM, we need to also work out which DAIs are active based on the graph. Hence for playback we can supply the DAC/AIF and find out all the connected output AIF/Speakers/Pins/etc. This is required at the start of open() in order that we can call the other PCM ops for each DAI, codec and platform.
Right, that's not really what I'm saying though - I'm saying that widgets in general could be interested in this information. For example, some charge pumps can save additional power with some input signal paths (which is currently handled but this would make that code more general).
Ok, but I'm not stopping this sort of functionality from being added later. Right now this is not a priority (for me anyway).
- snd_soc_dapm_get_connected_widgets_type - query audio path and it's widgets.
- @dapm: the dapm context.
- @stream_name: stream name.
- @list: list of active widgets for this stream.
- @stream: stream direction.
- @type: Initial widget type.

But we may also want to know what was after a DAC. I'm thinking back from the conference discussions where we could use this information to selectively enable/disable kcontrols. However, this is not going to be used at the moment either so I'll stick by the AIF widgets.
