Hi Tzung-Bi,

On a platform, the four max98357a amps will be controlled by only one
codec device, as GPIO for SD_MODE is shared by all amps and is the
only thing to be controlled.
In this sense, I think we can treat max98357a DAI as if it supports
four channels.
I understand that this solution is not scalable, because one can
control as many amps as they want.
Theoretically, the number of supported channels by this codec device
is unlimited.
I found that rt1015.c has similar usage.
Do you have a better suggestion to support this kind of use case ?
Thanks!

please don't top-post...

I don't think it's correct to declare 4-channel support at the individual codec DAI level when in practice each device will be provided with a TDM mask that selects two slots.

This is confusing device capabilities and TDM link configuration.

Sets channels_max to 4 to support QUAD channel.

Could you point out probably the up-to-date MAX98357A datasheet for
4-channel support?

On a related note, from the public datasheet I could find[1], "Table
5" only shows 2 channel's configuration.
