It's the bdw-rt5650.c which only exists in chrome's 3.14 branch supporting Buddy project. They submitted the machine driver but not yet merged. https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11050985/ > > So again can you point me to an issue or existing backport that requires the > patch below.

The story is Chrome has a tool called alsa_conformance_test which runs capture or playback against a PCM port with all possible configurations (channel, format, rate) then measure if the sample rate is correct. Since the channel max number reported is 4, it tests the 4-channel 48K capture and reports the actual sample rate is 24000 instead of 48000. That's the reason we want to add a constraint in machine driver to avoid user space programs trying to do 4 channel recording since this machine does not support it in the beginning. > > -Pierre > > > > > 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.
