Add the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as base
Import the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as OPNFV kvm base.
It's from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git linux-4.1.y-rt and
the base is:
commit 0917f823c59692d751951bf5ea699a2d1e2f26a2
Author: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>
Date: Sat Jul 25 12:13:34 2015 +0200
Prepare v4.1.3-rt3
Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>
We lose all the git history this way and it's not good. We
should apply another opnfv project repo in future.

This struct is exported so that it can be +registered with the core by your machine driver. + +e.g. + +static struct snd_soc_dai_ops wm8731_dai_ops = { + .prepare = wm8731_pcm_prepare, + .hw_params = wm8731_hw_params, + .shutdown = wm8731_shutdown, + .digital_mute = wm8731_mute, + .set_sysclk = wm8731_set_dai_sysclk, + .set_fmt = wm8731_set_dai_fmt, +}; + +struct snd_soc_dai_driver wm8731_dai = { + .name = "wm8731-hifi", + .playback = { + .stream_name = "Playback", + .channels_min = 1, + .channels_max = 2, + .rates = WM8731_RATES, + .formats = WM8731_FORMATS,}, + .capture = { + .stream_name = "Capture", + .channels_min = 1, + .channels_max = 2, + .rates = WM8731_RATES, + .formats = WM8731_FORMATS,}, + .ops = &wm8731_dai_ops, + .symmetric_rates = 1, +}; + + +2 - Codec control IO +-------------------- +The codec can usually be controlled via an I2C or SPI style interface +(AC97 combines control with data in the DAI). The codec driver should use the +Regmap API for all codec IO. Please see include/linux/regmap.h and existing +codec drivers for example regmap usage. + + +3 - Mixers and audio controls +----------------------------- +All the codec mixers and audio controls can be defined using the convenience +macros defined in soc.h. + + #define SOC_SINGLE(xname, reg, shift, mask, invert) + +Defines a single control as follows:- + + xname = Control name e.g. "Playback Volume" + reg = codec register + shift = control bit(s) offset in register + mask = control bit size(s) e.g. mask of 7 = 3 bits + invert = the control is inverted + +Other macros include:- + + #define SOC_DOUBLE(xname, reg, shift_left, shift_right, mask, invert) + +A stereo control + + #define SOC_DOUBLE_R(xname, reg_left, reg_right, shift, mask, invert) + +A stereo control spanning 2 registers + + #define SOC_ENUM_SINGLE(xreg, xshift, xmask, xtexts) + +Defines an single enumerated control as follows:- + + xreg = register + xshift = control bit(s) offset in register + xmask = control bit(s) size + xtexts = pointer to array of strings that describe each setting + + #define SOC_ENUM_DOUBLE(xreg, xshift_l, xshift_r, xmask, xtexts) + +Defines a stereo enumerated control + + +4 - Codec Audio Operations +-------------------------- +The codec driver also supports the following ALSA PCM operations:- + +/* SoC audio ops */ +struct snd_soc_ops { + int (*startup)(struct snd_pcm_substream *); + void (*shutdown)(struct snd_pcm_substream *); + int (*hw_params)(struct snd_pcm_substream *, struct snd_pcm_hw_params *); + int (*hw_free)(struct snd_pcm_substream *); + int (*prepare)(struct snd_pcm_substream *); +}; + +Please refer to the ALSA driver PCM documentation for details. +http://www.alsa-project.org/~iwai/writing-an-alsa-driver/ + + +5 - DAPM description. +--------------------- +The Dynamic Audio Power Management description describes the codec power +components and their relationships and registers to the ASoC core. +Please read dapm.txt for details of building the description. + +Please also see the examples in other codec drivers. + + +6 - DAPM event handler +---------------------- +This function is a callback that handles codec domain PM calls and system +domain PM calls (e.g. suspend and resume). It is used to put the codec +to sleep when not in use. + +Power states:- + + SNDRV_CTL_POWER_D0: /* full On */ + /* vref/mid, clk and osc on, active */ + + SNDRV_CTL_POWER_D1: /* partial On */ + SNDRV_CTL_POWER_D2: /* partial On */ + + SNDRV_CTL_POWER_D3hot: /* Off, with power */ + /* everything off except vref/vmid, inactive */ + + SNDRV_CTL_POWER_D3cold: /* Everything Off, without power */ + + +7 - Codec DAC digital mute control +---------------------------------- +Most codecs have a digital mute before the DACs that can be used to +minimise any system noise. The mute stops any digital data from +entering the DAC. + +A callback can be created that is called by the core for each codec DAI +when the mute is applied or freed. + +i.e. + +static int wm8974_mute(struct snd_soc_dai *dai, int mute) +{ + struct snd_soc_codec *codec = dai->codec; + u16 mute_reg = snd_soc_read(codec, WM8974_DAC) & 0xffbf; + + if (mute) + snd_soc_write(codec, WM8974_DAC, mute_reg | 0x40); + else + snd_soc_write(codec, WM8974_DAC, mute_reg); + return 0; +} |
