I did not bring up ULL case for a reason. Guess Pandora box is to be
opened.. so be it.
ULL stands for Ultra Low Latency and it can be described by the following:
- exists only for APL based platforms (more like single platform/ model
though)
- in consequence, binary isn't present on any other FW branch and any
other platform apart from APL
- its existence is tied to hardware.. eh.. let's call it a "limitation"
- number of actual vendors is too Ultra Low..
- has limited functionality and validation
- is not the recommended FW for end users in any case
- binary is not going to be upstreamed
- reference board is not going to be upstreamed
- generic (so called main FW) and ULL share the board ACPI ID and thus
require kernel .config to be modified -or- blacklist.conf with be updated
- shares topology filename with generic (main) FW so user still has to
modify his /lib/firmware. Topology names are currently NHLT-based, built
from NHLT header data and platform id which are BIOS/ ABL and platform
specific respectively
(...)
TLDR:
There is total of 0 people sitting in front of their monitors who are
consciously going to make use of ULL firmware.
Any user that is going to, will have to play with their kconfig,
blacklist and replace existing topology file.
This is normally done by titanic build-bot which, among billion other
things, ensures /lib/firmware looks like it should given the configuration.
-
So, one could have provided a nice choice-box within menuconfig to
ensure only one board can be chosen.
When one does it, one realizes both generic and ULL firmwares are not
actually tied to any specific board and with more boards (usecases) and
more kconfigs code gets bloated.
Moving further, guarding apl_desc with #if-else depending on some global
generic-vs-ULL configuration which would adjust said descriptors with
proper FW filename actually seems like a better solution..
..and then kBOOM comes in and actual design pattern!
Board should have been stated tplg_filename, not the fw_filename. Said
topology file contains manifest which tells host what libraries to load.
And thus, we clear the mist and see that one single field (which is
currently missing in snd_soc_acpi_mach) and some clever topology
manifest make it all happen: platform-board conflicts cease to exist.
