Very rough speaking, we don't want to break existing connections
(normal, DPCM, Codec2Codec, etc), and enable to use new style right ?
Let's name current style as PCMv1. I think we want to grouping related
things into one place, let's say soc-pcm.c, in roughly.
And make new style (PCMv2) at soc-pcm2.c, for example.
Then, we can swtich v1 or v2 somehow, like below ?
-------- soc-pcm.c -----
struct pcm_connection pcm1_connection = {
.ver = 1,
.new_pcm = soc_new_pcm,
...
};
-------- soc-pcm2.c -----
struct pcm_connection pcm2_connection = {
.ver = 2,
.new_pcm = new_pcm,
...
};
-------- soc-core.c -----
if (ver == v1)
connection = pcm1_connection
else (ver == v2)
connection = pcm2_connection
- ret = soc_new_pcm(rtd, num);
+ ret = connection->new_pcm(rtd, num);
We can create PCMv3, v4, v5... in the future if existing connection
style was not good enough. ... well... this is almost "ideal" ;P
Thank you for your help !!
Best regards
