cc-ing alsa-devel, then.

That makes sense, and i'll use patch_realtek.c as an example.
I'm inexperimented in C or alsa, though, so i might fail doing this.

I don't get what you mean. Anyway bootcamp ships with the cirrus driver
for windows, which lists all vendor/dev/subsys supported ids, with all
configurations for pins, gpio, and other stuff i don't understand.
It's tempting to use that to cover all actual models...
I'd need to get a minimal knowledge of how intel hda and associated chips
like cirrus work together. Any advice, beginner's guide ?
