ALSA SoC status

ALSA SoC status

[Ben Dooks]

I would like to know how the ALSA SoC work is going on,
as I am hoping to get the S3C2410/S3C244X better supported
and was hoping that the ASoC work would make the job easier
to do.

Are there any plans to merge ASoC soon, otherwise, is there
any advice for getting the S3C24XX and the boards produced
with it on supported?

It's working well on some pxa2xx machines atm. There are people
currently working on support for omap and AT91RM9200. I have access to a
pb1500 and i.MX21 boards so I'll be able to add support for them in the
near future.

The plan is to merge 0.10 into alsa-kernel. 0.10rc4 was released
recently (will be on http://www.rpsys.net/openzaurus/patches/alsa/ by
the weekend). The patch is large at about 450k (supports a lot of
codecs), so I'm happy to send it to anyone who requests.

ASoC 0.10 final is waiting on me completing some documentation: i.e. how
to write a platform driver, codec driver, how dynamic audio pm works,
etc. We also still have some machine specific bugs to fix on some
Zauruses and some testing before we can release final.

I'd be glad to help and advise with the S3C24XX support. I've sent the
current patch to you off list.

Liam
