idt STAC927x adat supported (sigmatel HDA codec) ?

[Eric]

Is the ADAT output of the IDT (sigmatel) STAC927x HDA codec supported in
alsa ?
If not could someone please try to add this incredibly nice feature in
the existing alsa driver ?

Thank you very much

Do you have any HD-audio device with ADAT?
IIRC, there is no specific verbs for ADAT on STAC927x...

Re: intel DP35DP adat supported (STAC927x codec) ?

[Eric]

In their handbook, motherboard intel DP35DP and others with STAC927x (in
the codec datasheet also ADAT output is featured on older sigmatel
STAC9271 and now IDT STAC9274 only) advertise ADAT output possible on
their toslink.
DP35DP and other intel boards are proven to have the ADAT output working
under windows.
Is it working in Alsa ? Many HTPC users would love that... I would !

Anybody from intel or IDT/sigmatel to confirm (by checking the sigmatel
STAC927x hda codec driver) that it will work ?
I want these intel motherboards only for this ADAT output feature and I
am a linux only user so I would like to know before buying...
I want to be sure someone would make the necessary changes to the hda
sigmatel codec alsa driver so it would work.
Thank you everybody

Hello Eric,

You should run the latest ALSA from the git tree because I added a codec
specific SPDIF output control control for that chipset.

...
 417 static const char *stac927x_spdif_labels[5] = {
 418     "Digital Playback", "ADAT", "Analog Mux 1",
 419     "Analog Mux 2", "Analog Mux 3"
 420 };
...

I haven't tested ADAT output though but I have no reason to
think it wouldn't work.

Thanks,

Matt Ranostay

It doesn't work. The option comes up, but no dice. Doesn't lock to the
receiver that has ADAT support.

I think that mux list is reather "the input source" of SPDIF output,
not the output target.  i.e. if you choose ADAT there, it means that
the input from ADAT will go to SPDIF output.

Re: intel DP35DP adat supported (STAC927x codec) ?

[Eric]

Their has never been an ADAT input advertised on the STAC927x codec.
What is needed for this codec to work is a switch to change between
SPDIF and ADAT mode OUTPUT (on the backpanel toslink).
As shown in the codec datasheet :
When choosing ADAT mode : node 1Fh ADATout (instead of node 1Eh spdif)
goes to node 21h Digout.

I think I have to buy the DP35DP so we can make and test the driver
modifications for it to work... I am really interested in the intel ADAT
output capable motherboard line.
Thanks

Re: intel DP35DP adat supported (STAC927x codec) ?

[Eric]

Hi Steven,
I have studied the hd audio documents :
Please make sure the pin default is actually 015521xx when in ADAT mode
(instead of config default 014521xx ) .

Please copy me your alsainfo script if it still does not work.

Matthew Ranostay is right : really not much is missing or wrong for ADAT
to work.
Thanks everybody for future help, Eric

Re: intel DP35DP adat supported (STAC927x codec) ?

[Eric]

Hi all, I bought motherboards intel DP35DP and DG33TL and just tried
ADAT output in Alsa (ADAT output on them is proven to work under windows).
I wrote the command (thanks to the work of Matthew for the 'IEC958
Playback Source' control.28 setting) :
amixer sset 'IEC958 Playback Source' ADAT

Here is my resulting alsainfo:
www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=cb01bf4f7bc62fe69f36bc1a4bbc0dbcace20605

It still does not work
I think the reason is that contrary to the windows driver the
Node 0x21 is still unchanged :
Pin Default 0x01452150: [Jack] SPDIF Out
whereas it should be better with :
		0x01552150

How can I change my computer from the Pin default config to this
alternative Pin config ?

Anybody has any other idea to help ?
Thanks a lot, Eric

Re: to support STAC927x ADATout (intel hda mobo)

[Eric]

Hi again,
Please any developper try to make ADAT output feature of sigmatel/IDT
STAC927x codecs (used on most intel HDA media and extreme boards)
actually work in ALSA.
ADAT is a great feature and I am an ALSAonly user so I really need your
help.

here is the codec datasheet
http://www1.idt.com/products/files/17122877/STAC927x-DS-0-7_IDT.pdf

Can some of you read the 0x1f ADATout converter (page185-188) and 0x21
digitalOUT pin complex (page155-159) and compare them with the sigmatel
alsa driver and sigmatel stac927x patch to see what controls are still
missing ?

I can test your work and more...
I will help as much as I can,
thanks in advance, Eric

modify the 0x21 pin config for ADATout (STAC927x hda codec) ?

[Eric]

Please somebody give me a simple way so as to have my 0x21 node Pin
config change
from my current (Default) 0x01452150: [Jack] SPDIF Out
to the aimed 0x01552150

If fact I bought these intel media motherboards ONLY for ADATout and
linux use.

With the very latest alsa-driver, you can change the pin defcfg value
via sysfs.  Grab the alsa-driver snapshot tarball below
    ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tiwai/snapshot/alsa-driver-snapshot.tar.gz
Build it and install it.  Then you'll have the files user_pin_configs
in /sys/class/sound/hwC0D* directory.  Write the NID and the value
to this file as root.

	# echo 0x21 0x1552150 > /sys/class/sound/hwC0D0/user_pin_configs

Then re-configure the setup by writing 1 to reconfig file there:

	# echo 0x21 0x1552150 > /sys/class/sound/hwC0D0/reconfig

Run "alsactl restore" to restore the mixer status after that.

[STAC927x HDA codec] 0x1F function not supported by driver ?

[Eric]

Hi everybody I have some news : bad news but I was prepared to : as of
now the alsa codec driver for STAC9271 is not complete : its ADAT output
(vendor specific function) support is not complete.
I tested with the ADAT output option Matthew Ranostay had added in a
patch ( amixer sset 'IEC958 Playback Source' ADAT )
and also having changed the 0x21 pin default from 014521xx to 015521xx
(4 being spdif out and 5 being digital out) : when doing so "alsactl
restore" responded : unknown hardware HDAintel STAC ; hardware is
initialized using a guess method   (which is possibly normal )
In jack I only had 2 alsa outputs (allways using card0 device 1 : "STAC
digital").
Maybe the problem is that ADATout Node 0x1F is not detailled enough in
the driver ?

here is COMPLETE codec datasheet (page185 for 0x1F node ; page 155 for
0x21 digOUT node):
http://pdf1.alldatasheet.com/datasheet-pdf/view/199321/IDT/STAC9271.html

here a alsa-info.sh of me (before changing to 015521xx pin config):

Hoping to get help to at least try to make it work : I bought intel
DP35DP motherboard ONLY for the advertised "ADAToutput feature".
Thanks a lot in advance, Eric

Re: [STAC927x HDA codec] 0x1F function not supported bydriver ?

[Eric]

Any help please... The complete codec datasheet is available (link
provided). Functional and complete ALSA driver for this HDA codec would
be great.
Thanks in advance, Eric
