With in ACP, There are three I2S controllers can be
configured/enabled ( I2S SP, I2S MICSP, I2S BT).
Default enabled I2S controller instance is I2S SP.
This patch provides required changes to support I2S BT
controller Instance.

I'm not a big fan of this approach, but I don't know any other way to
tell
a single "platform" driver (acp-pcm-dma) which of two channels (ST/BT)
to
use via the pcm_open() callback.

Mark, can you recommend any other way of doing this?

Hi Dan,

There have been couple of approaches worked upon this earlier.
1) To compare cpu dai name to get the I2S instance value in
acp_dma_open() call.

But, Mark suggested not to implement this approach as we are comparing
dynamically generated cpu dai names.

2) We added i2s_instance parameter as platform data to dwc driver.
By querying dwc driver platform data in acp dma driver, current i2s
instance was programmed in acp_dma_open ().

But Mark's latest comment was to implement platform specific changes in
machine driver. Machine driver and Dma driver should exchange the data
regarding this. We accepted this and current approach is based on the
same comment.
Below is the reference.
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/4/18/597

Yes, I saw Mark's previous comment, but what we are trying to implement
here is the SoC specific binding between i2s channel and acp-dma channel.
This is a feature of the SoC, not of the i2s controller, but also not a
feature of the audio configuration on the board.
The binding of channel and dma is soc specific but codec to channel is board specific.
These linkages can change from one board to another. Machine driver is specific to a board (grunt here) and dma driver being common for various boards (but specific to a platform like ST/CZ here). Tomorrow there can be some other board with x codec linked to BT and y to SP.
Hence, machine driver should send this board specific link information to dma driver for it to dma on the correct channel as per the board.
For these SoCs, the link
between DMA registers & I2S-channel is hard-coded. The machine driver is
already specifying which i2s channel to use when it configures, for
example, '.cpu_dai_name = "designware-i2s.2.auto"'. The i2s channel
selection already implies a particular DMA configuration. It seems
redundant to create this separate out-of-band infrastructure to make the
machine driver also tell its platform driver '.platform_name =
"acp_audio_dma.0.auto"' which i2s channel it is using.


We could have decided on the basis of "cpu_dai_name" but the decision would have been based on dynamically generated name. Though maybe redundant in nature, but machine driver is just sending info to dma driver that this codec is playing so play on this instance.

Perhaps the acp-pcm-dma.c should register two different platform drivers,
and let the machine driver pick the appropriate one (ie,
acp_audio_dma.0.auto or acp_audio_dma.1.auto) depending on which i2s port
it needs? Then each of these would have its own
snd_soc_platform_driver->ops->open() that could setup
snd_pcm_runtime->private_data appropriately?

I guess it would be overkill to have 2 platform drivers one for each instance but actually for a single platform.

Or is there another standard
way to have a single snd_soc_platform_driver handle multiple channels?


Don't know if there is a standard but would be interesting to know how other platforms handle multiple instances.

Thanks,
Akshu
