Re: [PATCH] staging: bcm2835-audio: remove compat ALSA card

From: Stefan Wahren

Hi Adrien,

[ add Maxime and Takashi ]

Am 08.04.22 um 17:03 schrieb Adrien Thierry:
Remove compat ALSA card, which has overlapping functionality with the
two other cards described by the driver (HDMI and headphones)

This handles TODO item "Revisit multi-cards options and PCM route mixer
control".

Move the S/PDIF device that was part of the compat ALSA card to the HDMI
card.

Only enable headphones card by default, because HDMI breaks when using
both vc4 and bcm2835-audio with HDMI card enabled.

I was able to test PCM output on 3.5mm and HDMI on a Raspberry Pi 4.
However, I couldn't test the HDMI S/PDIF device since I don't own a S/PDIF
capable speaker.

thanks for taking care of this issue. Unfortunately i cannot give a technical review to this patch. So hoping Maxime or Takashi can do ...

Best regards
