Through a quick look, those are no real "failures". It'd be more
preferable if the driver returns an error for invalid values, but
currently it's up to drivers how to deal with them, and some accept as
is but with correction of the values internally. They are shown as
"skips" in the summary above you showed, after all.
Sorry, somehow I copied the wrong line. The attachment actually contains:
# Totals: pass:217 fail:10 xfail:0 xpass:0 skip:60 error:0
So it seems to be shown as failure.
A more strict check can be enabled by a kconfig option
CONFIG_SND_CTL_INPUT_VALIDATION=y generically.
Thank you. I am going to test that out.
Kind regards,
Paul
