In this particular case, the ADV7482 *must* provide the clock, I believe: it extracts the audio stream from the HDMI connection (in addition to everything else) and serves the stream on I2S. Its MCLK line is physically connected to the CLK_C line (which is an input) of the R-Car SoC. The I2S audio transmission does not work if the ADV7482 clock is not programmed (or programmed incorrectly). Yes, I tried (I also tried programming it incorrectly, just because I didn't know what I was doing). > If ADV7482 needs more detail clock settings combination, > then, there is no method to adjust to it. > We need to consider such system somehow. Not encouraging... Maybe I should leave the clock fixed, with the frequency configuration in the device tree, e.g. as adv7482 port node property "clock-frequency". Which feels rather pathetic, but at least serves my purpose (48k, 8x24). But let me describe the situation as I see it first. As far as I understand, the SSI4 (Salvator-X board) should be programmed by the snd-soc-rcar driver in the "slave receiver" mode for this use case, which is HDMI input ADV7482 (I2S master, TDM) -> SSI4 (I2S slave)): [ 63.305990] asoc_simple_card_parse_clk: asoc-audio-graph-card sound: rsnd-dai.1 : sysclk = 66666664, direction 0 [ 63.306028] asoc_simple_card_parse_clk: asoc-audio-graph-card sound: adv748x-i2s : sysclk = 12288000, direction 1 I am a bit bothered by the fact that sysclk of rsnd-dai.1 does not match that sysclk of adv7482-i2s, but I think it's just DT node configuration. [ 63.306033] asoc_simple_card_set_dailink_name: asoc-audio-graph-card sound: name : rsnd-dai.1-adv748x-i2s ... [ 63.332641] asoc-audio-graph-card sound: adv748x.4-0070 <-> rsnd-dai.1 mapping ok ...

[ 128.961389] rsnd_write: rcar_sound ec500000.sound: w ssi[4] - SSICR ( 124) : 9ceb0100 Decoding this last line (9ceb0100) gives SSICR.TRMD (bit1) =0, SSICR.SCKD (bit15) =0, SSICR.SWSD (bit14) =0. The combination is documented as "slave receiver". Which, I assume, makes SSI4 use the external clock. Given the received stream looks ok, something also must have set the dividers correctly. >From the above, I conclude, whatever the complexity of the audio system clock configuration, it seems to be implemented for the case. I only miss a more or less clear way to configure the I2S master (ADV7482, that is). Regards, Alex
