I have run into a difference between the alsa structure on git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound.git/ and in the kernel 4.0 rc6. In the tree on the former there seems to be stucture hdac_bus core, and thus the patch for the Dell XPS13 ([PATCH] ALSA: hda/realtek - Support Dell headset mode for ALC286/ALC288) has a core.vendor_id , but in the kernel version of the alsa drivers, there is no such structure. There is a vendor_id element in the hda_codec structure. I thought the kernel included the alsa drivers from sound.git, but with the vastly different structures in the latter, it cannot. Could somone clue me in on what the situation is? William G.
