Hi Takashi,
Great - good to hear the previous DSP loader patches are now living in the 
hda-ca0132-dsp branch. This patch is based on that branch, and addresses 
the SCP packet endianness.

Do we need to do anything specific to handle this? The firmware is already 
restored upon S3 by the current caching code.

Thanks,
- Ian

The DSP firmware expects the SCP data to be in little-endian
format regardless of the host architecture.

Then it's OK.  I didn't check that the firmware loader gets called in
the resume path in patch_ca0132.c.

Looking at the patch now...:

I don't think this is the right place to fix the endianness.
The value passed to this function should be already in a right order.
The wrong endian value should be corrected at the place where you read
the value.


thanks,

Takashi
