Subject: [PATCH v3 06/18] HID: steelseries: Add ALSA sound card infrastructure
Date: Fri, 27 Feb 2026 18:50:30 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260227235042.410062-7-srimanachanta@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260227235042.410062-1-srimanachanta@gmail.com>
Register an ALSA sound card for each supported Arctis headset to expose
headset-specific audio controls to userspace. The card is created in
steelseries_snd_register() and freed in steelseries_snd_unregister(),
both guarded by a module compatibility check so that registration only
occurs when both SND and HID_STEELSERIES are built-in or are both
modules, avoiding a dependency mismatch.
The Kconfig entry is updated to add SND as a dependency. Subsequent
commits build on this infrastructure to register mixer controls.
