Thanks for the review! If I'm not mistaken, the microphone is attached to external codec(rt5514) instead of PCH on Kabylake platform. So there should be a TDM between DMICs and PCH. We can see in the kabylake_ssp0_hw_params function, there are some operations about setting tdm slot_width to 16 bits. Therefore, I think it only supports S16_LE format for DMICs. Is it correct?
Ah yes, ok. we have other machine drivers where dmic refers to the PCH attached case, thanks for the precision.
I am still not clear on the problem, you are adding this constraint to a front-end, so in theory the copier element in the firmware should take care of converting from 16-bits recorded on the TDM link to the 24 bits used by the application. Is this not the case? is this patch based on an actual error and if yes can you share more information to help check where the problem happens, topology maybe?

It could very well be that the firmware/topology only support 16 bit (I vaguely recall another case where 24 bits was added), but the description in the commit message would need to be modified to make the reason for this change clearer. > > Signed-off-by: Yu-Hsuan Hsu <yuhsuan@xxxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:yuhsuan@xxxxxxxxxxxx>> > --- > sound/soc/intel/boards/kbl_rt5663_rt5514_max98927.c | 3 +++ > 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/sound/soc/intel/boards/kbl_rt5663_rt5514_max98927.c b/sound/soc/intel/boards/kbl_rt5663_rt5514_max98927.c > index 74dda8784f1a01..67b276a65a8d2d 100644 > --- a/sound/soc/intel/boards/kbl_rt5663_rt5514_max98927.c > +++ b/sound/soc/intel/boards/kbl_rt5663_rt5514_max98927.c > @@ -400,6 +400,9 @@ static int kabylake_dmic_startup(struct snd_pcm_substream *substream) > snd_pcm_hw_constraint_list(runtime, 0, SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_CHANNELS, > dmic_constraints); > > + runtime->hw.formats = SNDRV_PCM_FMTBIT_S16_LE; > + snd_pcm_hw_constraint_msbits(runtime, 0, 16, 16); > + > return snd_pcm_hw_constraint_list(substream->runtime, 0, > SNDRV_PCM_HW_PARAM_RATE, &constraints_rates); > } >
