[PATCH v2 1/2] ALSA: hda: Allow jack presence to follow another pin
From: Rithvik Vibhu
Date: Mon Sep 14 2026 - 21:08:36 EST
On some combo jacks, the microphone pin can report absence even when
a headset is plugged in. Ordinary jack gating still requires the
microphone pin's own presence bit, so it cannot handle this case.
Add snd_hda_jack_set_presence_source() to derive a jack's presence
entirely from another pin. Use the existing gating relationship for
callback propagation, and invalidate the related caches before
callbacks run for events from either pin.
Keep the dependent jack detectable and non-phantom so generic
microphone autoswitching can use it. Make the new behavior opt-in,
preserving ordinary gating for existing callers.
