Hi Pierre We are working on a backport 3.14 branch for Chrome projects based on BDW platform. In the branch 4-channel capture is supported on some platforms but not all. So we need to add a constraint in the machine driver for machines don't support this feature. I checked the for-next branch in the broonie repo. The channels_max of HSW_PCM_DAI_ID_SYSTEM is 4 for capture stream so I think it would have same issue like google's backport tree. I didn't find any constraint for this dai. Would you point out where it is? .capture = { .stream_name = "Analog Capture", .channels_min = 2, .channels_max = 4, .rates = SNDRV_PCM_RATE_48000, .formats = SNDRV_PCM_FMTBIT_S24_LE | SNDRV_PCM_FMTBIT_S16_LE, }, Regards, Brent Lu -----Original Message----- From: Pierre-Louis Bossart [mailto:pierre-louis.bossart@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, September 6, 2019 10:21 PM To: Lu, Brent <brent.lu@xxxxxxxxx>; alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: Rojewski, Cezary <cezary.rojewski@xxxxxxxxx>; liam.r.girdwood@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; yang.jie@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; broonie@xxxxxxxxxx; perex@xxxxxxxx; tiwai@xxxxxxxx; kuninori.morimoto.gx@xxxxxxxxxxx; tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx; linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [PATCH] ASoC: bdw-rt5677: channel constraint support On 9/5/19 8:24 PM, Brent Lu wrote: > BDW boards using this machine driver supports only stereo capture and > playback. Implement a constraint to enforce it. Humm, can you clarify what problem/error this patch fixes? There are already constraints on the hsw_dais[] where the channels are stereo only.
