The bug concerned is the ordering of the channels, so unless you're (eg0 monitoring left/right separately or directing audio to just one channel, you may not (with modern TVs) realise that the channels are swapped. I'll include the errata description and impact below. There are occasional issues on iMX6 as well despite this work-around, but I don't clearly remember what devmem2 tweaks I've done in the past to get it to resolve itself, nor could I describe them from memory any better than "burbling audio". When the AHB Audio DMA is started, by setting to 1'b1 for the first time the register field AHB_DMA_START.data_buffer_ready, the AHB Audio DMA will request data from the AHB bus to fill its internal AHB DMA FIFO. It is possible that a AHB DMA FIFO read action occurs during the time window between the first sample stored on the AHB DMA FIFO and when the AHB DMA FIFO has stored, at least, the number of configured audio channels in samples. If this happens, the AHB DMA FIFO will reply with samples that are currently on the AHB Audio FIFO and will repeat the last sample after the empty condition is reached. Projected Impact: This will miss-align the audio stream, causing a shift in the distribution of audio on the channels on the HDMI sink side, with no knowledge of the DWC_hdmi_tx enabled system. If you know that this definitely does not apply to your version, then we need to split the audio enable/disable functions between the AHB and I2S variants. -- RMK's Patch system: http://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTC broadband for 0.8mile line: currently at 9.6Mbps down 400kbps up according to speedtest.net. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
