[PATCH v2 2/2] ASoC: simple-card-utils: support system-clock-id DT property

From: Sen Wang

Date: Fri May 15 2026 - 12:47:58 EST


The generic machine driver never had a mechanism to adjust for various
clk_ids that is tailored for individual codec & cpu peripheral driver.
simple_util_dai_init() has hardcoded 0, thus making non-default clock IDs
unreachable from DTS. Boards needing a specific clk_id have had no choice
but to write dedicated machine drivers.

Add an optional "system-clock-id" u32 property to the cpu/codec
sub-node and use it in all three set_sysclk() call sites. When absent
clk_id stays 0, preserving identical behavior for all existing boards.

And since simple_util_parse_clk() is invoked once per sub-node, per-DAI
independence can be preserved as cpu and codec sub-nodes carry independent
clk_id values.

E.g., the following dts topology would be supported:

cpu { system-clock-id = <6>; }
codec { system-clock-id = <1>; }

Apologies Morimoto-san, when finalizing the patch I realize a few more
places need to be changed, can you kindly re-review and give your
acked-by?
