The string would be in the ALSA device list: ALSA device list: #0: imx-spdif I think it can be a sort of arbitrary as long as users know which this device exactly is when they catch the name by 'aplay -l' or 'arecord -l' The phrase "user-visible" is being used in many current docs, I don't dare to change it unless a sage gives me a suggestion. > > + > > + - spdif-controller : The phandle of the i.MX S/PDIF controller > > + > > + > > +Optional properties: > > + > > + - spdif-transmitter : The phandle of the spdif-transmitter dummy codec > > + > > + - spdif-receiver : The phandle of the spdif-receiver dummy codec > > + > > +* Note: At least one of these two properties should be set in the DT binding. > > Are all four units (comlpex,controller,transmitter,receiver) really > separate blocks? At least they are separate drivers as I mentioned in the commit comments.
