Hi, I put together a machine-level ASoC driver for recent Apple Macs (the ones with ARM64 SoCs) and want to gauge opinions. Commit 1 is the binding. It is some subset of simple-audio-card with the extra distinction of allowing multiple CPU/CODEC DAIs per a DAI link. I want to draw special attention to the issue of describing speaker topologies. The way it now works is that the driver expects the speakers to be declared in a fixed order in the sound-dai= list. This populates a topology the driver expects on a particular machine model. Mark (in CC) has made the suggestion of keeping the topology descriptions with the codec nodes themselves in some generic manner, akin to how sound-name-prefix= already helps identify codecs to the user. Commit 2 adds a new ASoC card method (filter_controls) to let the card prevent some codec kcontrols from being visible to userspace. For example the TAS2770 speaker amp driver would be happy to expose TDM slot selection and ISENSE/VSENSE enables which is ridiculous. I am all ears on how to make the patch acceptable to upstream. Commit 3 makes ASoC tolerate N-to-M DAI links, not sure what the right (simple) approach should be there. Commit 4 adds some utility function and commit 5 is the driver itself. Let me know what you think.
