I have a feeling from the discussion here that you would prefer this per model/machine option over the current patch which unconditionally sets the SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_ACCESS_SPK/MIC_LED flag on the main DAC/ADC mute controls ? So I believe that it would be best for me to respin this patch series moving to making this a per model/machine thing, correct? > I'd be a lot more comfortable with ASoC having some runtime control for > overriding which controls get mapped, even if we try to pick defaults > with quirks. The drivers in question already allow overriding their quirks bitmap via a module-parameter. If we are going to enable the mixer-element access-flag which enables LED control on a per-model basis based on DMI quirks, then I plan to simply add 1 new flag in the quirks bitmap for this for each mixer-element on which we need the flag. So for now this would be just 2 new flags, since atm we only need the SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_ACCESS_SPK_LED resp. SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_ACCESS_SPK_LED flag on one mixer-element each. And then the user can always override the settings using the quirk module parameter. This is not exactly runtime control, but IMHO it is close enough and anything else will just overcomplicate things. I'm aware of only 3 model 2-in-1s which need this and on those 3 the implementation is very straight forward. Regards, Hans
