[PATCH v6 00/16] ASoC: rsnd: Add RZ/G3E audio driver support

From: John Madieu

Date: Tue May 12 2026 - 14:30:11 EST


Add audio support for the Renesas RZ/G3E SoC to the R-Car Sound
driver. The RZ/G3E audio subsystem is based on R-Car Sound IP but
has several differences requiring dedicated handling:

- SSI operates exclusively in BUSIF mode (no PIO)
- 2-4 BUSIF channels per SSI (layout differs from R-Car)
- Separate register regions for SCU, ADG, SSIU, SSI accessed by name
- Per-SSI ADG and SSIF supply clocks
- Dedicated audmacpp clock/reset for Audio DMAC peri-peri
- Per-SSI and per-module reset controllers via CPG
- Unprefixed DT sub-node names (ssi, ssiu, src, ...) instead of
rcar_sound,xxx
- Hyphenated indexed clock/reset names (ssi-0, src-0, adg-ssi-0,
audio-clka, ...) instead of the legacy dotted form

Link to v5 at [1].

Changes:

v6:
- Rename all indexed clock-names and reset-names from the dotted form
("ssi.0", "src.0", "adg.ssi.0", "clk_a", ...) to the hyphenated form
("ssi-0", "src-0", "adg-ssi-0", "audio-clka", ...).
- DT binding: tighten #sound-dai-cells to const: 1, drop the unused
clock-frequency and clkout-lr-asynchronous properties.
- Add a new preparatory patch to handle the hyphenated DT name first and
fall back to the legacy dotted form, so existing R-Car DTs keep
working unchanged while new bindings can use the hyphenated convention.
- Convert the SSI, SRC, CTU, DVC and MIX probes to the helpers and drop
the per-module name buffers and NAME_SIZE defines.
- Add a new patch adding a third clkin name table for RZ/G3E and
dispatching to it in the same style as the existing Gen4
branch. CLKA/B/C/I enum values, the clkin[] array and the
BRGA/BRGB derivation are unchanged; only the DT lookup names
differ and use the hyphenated form.
- audmacpp: enable the clock before deasserting the reset so the
block sees a stable clock on the way out of reset (and mirror
the ordering on suspend/resume).
- SRC: use devm_clk_get_optional_enabled() for scu_supply and drop
the manual prepare/enable in rsnd_src_init()/rsnd_src_quit(),
so scu_supply has the same lifetime as scu/scu_x2.
- adg: simplify the per-SSI ADG and SSIF supply clock
- Strip out the "rcar_sound," from binding, DT, and add corresponding
code support.
- suspend/resume: respect the probe ordering in
rsnd_dma_suspend()/_resume() (assert reset before disabling
clock on suspend; enable clock before deasserting reset on
resume)
- Guard rsnd_src_suspend()/_resume() so platforms without SRC are safe.

v5:
- Drop the rsnd.yaml binding split (patches 01/12 and 02/12 from v4).
- Extract RSND_SOC_MASK fix as a standalone bug-fix patch (was
previously embedded in patch 04) per Kuninori's request.
- Split the DMA refactor out of patch 06/12 into its own
preparatory patch, so the struct/lookup introduction and the
RZ/G3E address tables are in separate commits.
- Add new patch "Support unprefixed DT node names for RZ/G3E"
converting rsnd_parse_of_node() to a function that tries the
legacy rcar_sound, prefix first, then falls back to the bare
name.
- Simplify flags layout comment per Kuninori's feedback.
- Add comment clarifying that clock/reset acquisition is optional
and no-error when absent from DT, and drop spurious blank line
in rsnd.h.
- Move RZ/G3E DMA address comment to rsnd_rzg3e_dma_addr(), not
the shared header. Separate the line-wrap-only change in
rsnd_gen2_dma_addr() into the preparatory patch only.

v4:
- Add reset_control_assert() in rsnd_mod_quit() for symmetry with
deassert in rsnd_mod_init() (Mark Brown)
- Fix RSND_SOC_MASK to (0xF << 4) to avoid overlap with
RSND_RZ_MASK. Add nibble layout comment documenting the flag
bit allocation.
- Move audmapp_clk and audmapp_rstc from struct rsnd_priv into
struct rsnd_dma_ctrl.
- Replace raw [3][2][3] DMA address array with named structs
(rsnd_dma_addr_dir, rsnd_dma_addr_map) for self-documenting
table initializers.
- Move busif_status_count from file-static into new
struct rsnd_ssiu_ctrl, following the rsnd_dma_ctrl pattern.
Remove duplicate priv variable. Properly propagate reset errors
via dev_err_probe().
- Clarify commit message regarding PIO mode still being available
on R-Car.
- Collapse dev_err_probe() and rsnd_mod_init() calls to single
lines.
- Move per-SSI ADG and SSIF supply clock prepare/unprepare into
rsnd_adg_clk_control() instead of separate functions.
- Move shared SCU clocks from file-statics into new
struct rsnd_src_ctrl.
- Merge rsnd_adg_mod_get() helper directly into the suspend/resume
patch.
- Drop former patch 12/14 "Add rsnd_adg_mod_get() for PM support".
- Drop former patch 13/14 "Export rsnd_ssiu_mod_get() for PM
support".

v3:
- Split out from v2 series [2] to ASoC-specific patchset.

v2:
- Split of rsnd.yaml into common and R-Car-specific schemas.
- Introduce RZ/G3E sound binding as a standalone schema.
- Addressed Kuninori's comments (details in individual patches).
