The goal of this patchset is to refactor existing interface of Non HDAudio Link Table (NHLT) table so it becomes useful for the Intel AudioDSP sound-drivers. Right now the useful duplicate resides in sound/hda/intel-nhlt.c. The API takes form of query functions that help access device or audio-format configuration space. This information can be then utilized by a sound-driver to perform necessary programming and facilitate streaming over I2S/PDM interfaces. Once the series is merged, existing sound-drivers can move from utilizing sound/hda/intel-nhlt.c to this very code and ultimately the former file can be removed. Paired with equivalent change on ACPICA [1]. - Non HDAudio Link Table (NHLT) is designed to separate hardware-related description (registers) from AudioDSP firmware-related one i.e.: pipelines and modules that together make up the audio stream on Intel DSPs. This task is important as same set of hardware registers can be used with different topologies and vice versa, same topology could be utilized with different set of hardware. As the hardware registers description is directly tied to specific platform, intention is to have such description part of low-level firmware e.g.: BIOS. The initial design has been provided in early Sky Lake (SKL) days. The audio architecture goes by the name cAVS. SKL is a representative of cAVS 1.5. The table helps describe endpoint capabilities ever since. While Raptor Lake (RPL) is the last of cAVS architecture - cAVS 2.5 to be precise - its successor, the ACE architecture which begun with Meteor Lake (MTL) inherited the design for all I2S and PDM configurations. These two configurations are the primary targets for NHLT table. Due to naming conflicts with existing code, several structs are named 'nhlt2' rather than 'nhlt'. Last patch cleans the situation up. Changes in v7: - added missing headers to nhlt.c/nhlt.h as suggested by Andy Changes in v6: - added comments explaining usage of LINKTYPE and DEVICETYPE constants Changes in v5: - split find_endpoint/fmtcfg() into tb-less and tb-aware variants. This is to make API scale with 2+ NHLTs and removes the need for acpi_gbl_nhlt to be accessible globally. - acpi_nhlt_device_config now a union that encompasses all device_config types. Changes in v4: - relocated ACPI_NHLT kconfig in the drivers/acpi/Kconfig to a more relevant area within the file Changes in v3: - uncapitalized acpi_gbl_NHLT - fixed compilation problems when CONFIG_ACPI_NHLT is disabled - dropped Reviewed-by tags in the 2/4 patch due to above, those were not one-line changes Changes in v2: - minor wording improvements in kernel-doc for patch 3/4 - dropped parentheses around loop cursors in for_each_nhlt_*() macros - readability improvements in compound if-statements within query functions - dropped NULL-checks in query functions [1]: https://github.com/acpica/acpica/pull/912 Cezary Rojewski (4): ACPI: NHLT: Reintroduce types the table consists of ACPI: NHLT: Introduce API for the table ACPI: NHLT: Drop redundant types ACPI: NHLT: Streamline struct naming drivers/acpi/Kconfig | 3 + drivers/acpi/Makefile | 1 + drivers/acpi/nhlt.c | 289 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ include/acpi/actbl2.h | 299 +++++++++++++++++------------------------- include/acpi/nhlt.h | 181 +++++++++++++++++++++++++ 5 files changed, 591 insertions(+), 182 deletions(-) create mode 100644 drivers/acpi/nhlt.c create mode 100644 include/acpi/nhlt.h -- 2.25.1
