Subject: [PATCH v1 1/2] ASoC: intel/sdw_utils: Add volume limit to cs42l43 speakers
Date: Wed, 30 Apr 2025 11:31:19 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250430103134.24579-2-sbinding@opensource.cirrus.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250430103134.24579-1-sbinding@opensource.cirrus.com>

The volume control for cs42l43 speakers has a maximum gain of +31.5 dB.
However, for many use cases, this can cause distorted audio, depending
various factors, such as other signal-processing elements in the chain,
for example if the audio passes through a gain control before reaching
the codec or the signal path has been tuned for a particular maximum
gain in the codec.

In the case of systems which use the soc_sdw_cs42l43 driver, audio will
likely be distorted in all cases above 0 dB, therefore add a volume
limit of 128, which is 0 dB maximum volume inside this driver.
