Subject: Out-of-tree HDMI audio driver for BayTrail-T
Date: Thu, 27 Aug 2015 08:02:00 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <55DEA7D8.5060106@canonical.com> (raw)

I don't usually deal with out-of-tree drivers, but when Canonical 
enabled the Intel Compute Stick [1] (which is using a BayTrail-T 
processor), we were using an out-of-tree driver to enable HDMI audio.

The driver has earlier been made public by Intel [2], and I've put my 
modifications to it here [3].

Unfortunately, it looks like the effort and hardware knowledge required 
to make this driver upstreamable is beyond what I can currently manage.

Also, I cannot answer for whether or not other parties (such as Intel) 
plan to upstream the driver.
