A continuation of avs-driver initial series [1]. This chapter covers path management and topology parsing part which was ealier path of the main series. The two patches that represented these two subjects in the initial series, have been split into many to allow for easier review and discussion. AVS topology is split into two major parts: dictionaries - found within ASoC topology manifest - and path templates - found within DAPM widget private data. Dictionaries job is to reduce the total amount of memory occupied by topology elements. Rather than having every pipeline and module carry its own information, each refers to specific entry in specific dictionary by provided (from topology file) indexes. In consequence, most struct avs_tplg_xxx are made out of pointers. A 'path' represents a DSP side of audio stream in runtime - is a logical container for pipelines which are themselves composed of modules - processing units. Due to high range of possible audio format combinations, there can be more variants of given path (and thus, its pipelines and modules) than total number of pipelines and module instances which firmware supports concurrently, all the instance IDs are allocated dynamically with help of IDA interface. 'Path templates' come from topology file and describe a pattern which is later used to actually create runtime 'path'.
