[PATCH 1/2] arm64: dts: qcom: sc8280xp-microsoft-blackrock: enable DisplayPort audio

From: Jens Glathe via B4 Relay

Date: Sun Aug 23 2026 - 04:36:49 EST


From: Jens Glathe <jens.glathe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The Windows Dev Kit 2023 has no built-in speakers, microphones or
headphone jack. Likewise the device with the same mainboard, Surface
Pro 9 5G [1]. The previous WCD938x / WSA / VA sound card definition
was therefore non-functional.

Replace the unused codec nodes, SoundWire controllers, LPASS macros
and related pinctrl with DisplayPort DAI links (DP0/DP1/DP2) so that
audio is available over the DP connectors. Add the required
sound-name-prefix properties and update the card model name to the
conventional SC8280XP-MICROSOFT-BLACKROCK form.
