Now that the ASoC core is quite mature and works well on several machines (all with different codecs), I'd like to start submitting some patches to alsa-kernel later this week. However, before I do so, I'd like to hear any feedback on the developer documentation in the latest patch set. I've broken the documentation down by area and it resides in Documentation/sound/alsa/soc/ All comments appreciated. I'd also like any feed back on the example BT codec and GSM modem drivers (mainstone_bluetooth.c and mainstone_baseband.c respectively) included in the patch. These drivers will not be submitted as they are intended as a proof of concept for connecting wireless codecs to dual interface portable codecs in hardware. This allows for PCM audio transport between the near end and far end without the need for the CPU to transfer the data (hence saving cycles and power). It also allows the pcm link to be set up and controlled (via alsa-lib) like any other alsa device. Please see the code for full details. Current dev status: o Working platform support for pxa2xx. (i.MX31 and AT91RM9200 in progress) o Support for Zaurus machines (corgi, tosa, spitz and poodle) o Working (and application transparent) Dynamic Audio Power Management. o Reusable codec and platform code. Future plans: o Add scenario support. Alpha quality patch exists that allows for source-->sink audio paths to be specified (eventually to be in alsa conf file) and for the path to be set with the best power settings. This will hopefully allow for several usage scenarios to be specified as a set of source -- > sink descriptions (and for easy switching between them). http://www.rpsys.net/openzaurus/patches/alsa/asoc-scenario-v0.1.patch o Driver size and performance optimisations. o More codecs, platforms and machines. The latest patch is 0.11pre7. http://www.rpsys.net/openzaurus/patches/alsa/asoc-v0.11pre7.patch General info on ASoC is available here:- http://www.rpsys.net/openzaurus/patches/alsa/info.html Liam ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
