Follow up to catpt series as mentioned in: [PATCH v10 00/14] ASoC: Intel: Catpt - Lynx and Wildcat point https://www.spinics.net/lists/alsa-devel/msg116440.html As catpt is a direct replacement to sound/soc/intel/haswell, it leaves a lot of code redudant. The second legacy solution - baytrail - is deprecated for a long time by sound/soc/intel/atom with SOF flavor available too. This series addresses the redudancy and removes obsolete code. Along with the legacy solutions, all orphaned components are removed too. As a consequence, further cleanups are unlocked: sound/soc/intel/skylake becomes the sole user of processing code found in sound/soc/intel/common. Those are not part of this series.
Since I've mostly worked with Pierre-Louis on this, I guess you may not know this, but I have more or less single handedly have made sure that audio works properly on Bay Trail and Cherry Trail devices during the last few years. Can you please Cc me on future series which impact Bay Trail / Cherry Trail support ? FWIW (since that this is already merged) I'm fine with removing the quite old Bay Trail support from common/sst-acpi.c, at least Fedora has been using the medium-old (with SOF being the new thing) CONFIG_SND_SST_IPC_ACPI support for Bay Trail audio support for quite some time now. This is not just about Bay Trail And Cherry Trail devices though, this series also makes changes impacting Haswell and Broadwell devices. The commit removing this support claims that at least for Haswell the new sound/soc/intel/catpt replaces it, but I do not see that code in 5.9, so that means that in one cycle we are both introducing the replacement and dropping the old code ? I'm not sure if that is such a great idea, what is the fallback plan if testing does find significant issues with the new catpt code ? Anyways since AFAIK this series is already in next I guess we will find out how this goes. Regards, Hans
