Sorry to be late. I've review your driver in for-next branch of maintainer's tree.

Anyway, at least, this patch (ASoC: core: allow control index different from 0) is exaggerated to your aim. The change influences to all of control element sets added by implementations in ALSA SoC part. (We have no guarantee that all drivers already set 0 to the field of template before calling with the template.) And please write enough information about your aim of this patch, even if it's a part of your work for something large. It helps reviewers. Additionally, if you discuss the former patchset, please rebase them to current upstream, then post them again with enough comments, then start discussion.

Just for ALSA SoC part, something like below (not tested). This never work well because 0 is still assigned to the index field later. But I still oppose this idea. This idea allows drivers to add control element sets of different types (int/int64/bytes etc...) with the same name and different index number. This certainly brings confusions to applications. In a framework of ALSA SoC part, several drivers are associated to one sound card instance can add their own control element sets. There's no mechanism to prevent my concern. This idea is bad. >From 30c6abb20ca548add8cddb6e056831efde365c3e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Takashi Sakamoto <o-takashi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, 9 Oct 2016 11:20:08 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] hoge --- sound/soc/soc-core.c | 42 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---- 1 file changed, 38 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/sound/soc/soc-core.c b/sound/soc/soc-core.c index c0bbcd9..573ca73 100644 --- a/sound/soc/soc-core.c +++ b/sound/soc/soc-core.c @@ -2202,15 +2202,49 @@ static int snd_soc_add_controls(struct snd_card *card, struct device *dev, const struct snd_kcontrol_new *controls, int num_controls, const char *prefix, void *data) { + struct snd_kcontrol_new template; + struct snd_ctl_elem_id id; + struct snd_kcontrol *elem_set; int err, i; for (i = 0; i < num_controls; i++) { - const struct snd_kcontrol_new *control = &controls[i]; - err = snd_ctl_add(card, snd_soc_cnew(control, data, - control->name, prefix)); + template = controls[i]; + + id.iface = template.iface; + id.device = template.device; + id.subdevice = template.subdevice; + memcpy(id.name, template.name, sizeof(id.name)); + + /* + * Seek duplicated element sets already registered in this + * sound card to use continuous number for index field. + */ + while (1) { + id.index = template.index; + + elem_set = snd_ctl_find_id(card, &id); + if (elem_set == NULL) + break; + + if (elem_set->id.index > UINT_MAX - elem_set->count) { + dev_err(dev, "ASoC: Failed to keep %s: %d\n", + template.name, err); + return -ENOSPC; + } + template.index = elem_set->count + elem_set->id.index; + } + + elem_set = snd_soc_cnew(&template, data, template.name, prefix); + if (elem_set == NULL) { + dev_err(dev, "ASoC: Failed to allocate %s: %d\n", + template.name, err); + return -ENOMEM; + } + + err = snd_ctl_add(card, elem_set); if (err < 0) { dev_err(dev, "ASoC: Failed to add %s: %d\n", - control->name, err); + template.name, err); return err; } } -- 2.7.4 Regards Takashi Sakamoto _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
