ASoc: soc_core.c stream direction from snd_soc_dai

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi there,

A large number of audio codecs allow different formats for playback and capture. This becomes very useful when there are different latencies between playback and capture hardware data lines. For example digital isolation chips typically have a 1 bit delay in propagation as the bit clock rate gets faster for higher sample rates. By setting the capture and playback formats to differ by one or two bit clock cycles, the delay problem is solved.

There doesn't seem to be a simple way to detect stream direction in the codec driver's set_fmt function.

The snd_soc_runtime_set_dai_fmt function :

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/sound/soc/soc-core.c#L1480

calls the snd_soc_dai_set_fmt function :

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/sound/soc/soc-dai.c#L101

which calls the set_fmt function :

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/include/sound/soc-dai.h#L189


The snd_soc_dai_ops set_fmt function is defined as :

    int (*set_fmt)(struct snd_soc_dai *dai, unsigned int fmt);


Is there a simple way to find the stream direction from a snd_soc_dai ?

If the stream direction can be detected then the playback and capture formats can be set independently for the codec.

It there a different way to set the playback and capture formats for the codec independently at runtime, depending on the sample rate ?
