A logical split would avoid having a description of a codec In this case "codec" is just what ASoC (for historical reasons) calls any block that isn't a DAI or DMA controller on the CPU. It doesn't actually need to be a CODEC. There are many cases even the ADCs and DACs are integrated with the CPU which means that package boundaries aren't always that helpful either. _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
