[alsa-devel] [RFC PATCH 00/34] sun8i-codec fixes and new features

[Samuel Holland]

Hello all,

The sun8i-codec driver, as used in the Allwinner A33 and A64, currently
only exposes a small subset of the available hardware features. In order
to use the A64 in a smartphone (the PinePhone), I've added the necessary
functionality to the driver:
  * The full set of supported DAI format options
  * Support for AIF2 and AIF3
  * Additional routing knobs
  * Additional volume controls

Unfortunately, due to preexisting issues with the driver, there are some
breaking changes, as explained further in the commit messages:
  * The LRCK inversion issue means we need a new compatible for the A64.
  * Some controls are named inaccurately, so they are renamed.
  * Likewise, the DAPM widgets used in device trees were either named
    wrong, or the device trees were using the wrong widgets in the first
    place. (Specifically, the links between the analog codec and digital
    codec happen at the ADC and DAC, not AIF1.)

I tended to take the philosophy of "while I'm breaking things, I might
as well do them right", so I've probably made a few more changes than
absolutely necessary. I'm not sure about where all of the policy
boundaries are, about how far I should go to maintain compatibility. For
example, for the DT widget usage, I could:
  * Rename everything and update the DTS files (which is what I did)
  * Keep the old (misleading/wrong) name for the widgets, but repurpose
    them to work correctly
      (i.e. "ADC Left" would be named "AIF1 Slot 0 Left ADC", but it
       would work just like "ADC Left" does in this patchset)
  * Keep the old widgets around as a compatibility layer, but add new
    widgets and update the in-tree DTS files to use them
      (i.e. "ADC Left" would have a path from "AIF1 Slot 0 Left ADC",
       but "AIF1 Slot 0 Left ADC" would be a no-op widget)
  * Something else entirely

There are several trivial fixes in here, and there are several commits
that just add new features without changing any existing behavior, but
there is enough changing that I thought it would be best to send the
whole thing as an RFC. I'm more than happy to reorganize this into one
or several patchsets in future revisions. It doesn't have to all go in
at once.

This has all been tested on the PinePhone. For example, I've
successfully routed a voice call between the modem at AIF2 and a
Bluetooth headset at AIF3, merged with an audio file played from AIF1.
Unfortunately, the PinePhone does not have a DTS upstream yet (partially
due to the audio driver situation), so I don't have an example DTS in
this patchset.

Thanks for any feedback,
Samuel
