[alsa-devel] [ANNOUNCE] patch for INTEL HDMI codec

[Wu Fengguang]

Hello,

We have recently enabled sound output for Intel HDMI codecs,
and would like to share the good news and some early code :-)

The audio enabling code includes both ALSA and X.Org patches.
Attached is one single patch against today's sound-2.6 tree.
It contains very basic code for handling
        - audio infoframe
        - ELD(E-EDID Like Data)
        - unsolicited response

The patch is full enough to produce stereo sound via HDMI.
But it still lacks features and contains many 'defined but unused' staffs.

It was tested OK on ASUS P5E-VM board and HP 2230s notebook.
It _should_ also work on Intel DG45ID board.

Takashi, I can prepare a trimmed-down patch series, in doing so I'd like
to know if you are interested in the basic DIP/ELD/UNSOL routines?
Or should I only submit bare code comparable to the current patch_atihdmi.c?

Thank you,
Fengguang
