[PATCH 1/3] ASoC: wm8940: Remove warning when no plat data

[Lukasz Majewski]

The lack of platform data in the contemporary Linux
shall not be the reason to display warnings to the
kernel logs.

[PATCH 2/3] ASoC: wm8940: Rewrite code to set proper clocks

[Lukasz Majewski]

Without this change, the wm8940 driver is not working when
set_sysclk callback (wm8940_set_dai_sysclk) is called with
freqency not listed in the switch clause.

This change adjusts this driver to allow non-standard frequency
set (just after the boot) being adjusted afterwards by the sound
system core code.

Moreover, support for internal wm8940's PLL is provided, so it
can generate clocks when HOST system is not able to do it.

Code in this commit is based on previous change done for wm8974
(SHA1: 51b2bb3f2568e6d9d81a001d38b8d70c2ba4af99).

I don't entirely follow the above - in what way might the core adjust
the clocking, and why would we want to allow the use of invalid clocks?
Surely that just makes error checking worse.

Please include human readable descriptions of things like commits and
issues being discussed in e-mail in your mails, this makes them much
easier for humans to read especially when they have no internet access.
I do frequently catch up on my mail on flights or while otherwise
travelling so this is even more pressing for me than just being about
making things a bit easier to read.

Hmm, it is a bit complicated.

When I enabed wm8940 support in mainline - the first call to
wm8940_set_dai_sysclk (the set_sysclk callback) required mclk = 11997070
frequency.

With the current code [1] the initialization of the codec returns
-EINVAL and the codec is not supported in the system:

asoc-simple-card: probe of sound failed with error -22



The approach used in this patch set to fix the above issue is based on
one already present in-tree for wm8974 codec.

Ok, I will add some more verbose description. The aforementioned SHA1
is referring to commit already in-tree, so you would find it easily
even without the Internet.

Well, that looks like a bug in either simple-card or it's configuration
which should be fixed then (you should probably use audio-graph-card for
new things BTW).  If a machine driver just randomly sets a clock rate
that the system can't support and doesn't want then that's a problem,
presuambly it's getting that rate from somewhere.  Note that this is the
machine driver trying to set a clock rate, not the core.

[PATCH 3/3] ASoC: wm8940: Mute also the speaker output

[Lukasz Majewski]

Without this change the BTL speaker produces some
"distortion" noise when test program
(speaker-test -t waw) is ended with ctrl+c.

As our design uses speaker outputs to drive BTL speaker,
it was necessary to also mute the speaker via the codec
internal WM8940_SPKVOL register with setting
WM8940_SPKMUTE bit.

This will not interact well with both the user visible control of the
speaker volume via the Speaker Playback Volume control and the analog
bypass paths that the device has - it'll change the state of the control
without generating any events, and cut off any bypassed audio that's
mixed in.

You can probably achieve a similar effect by making the control an
_AUTODISABLE one which will allow the core to mute the control when it's
not being used in a way that's not visible to userspace.

I'm wondering why it is safe to call DAI's .digital_mute()
callback, which explicitly changes state of the "DAC soft mute enable"
bit (DACMU) ?

And on the other hand it is not correct to just mute the speakers?

The exact definition for the event, which I'm forcing above:

SOC_SINGLE("Speaker Playback Switch", WM8940_SPKVOL,  6, 1, 1),

And there is no SOC_SINGLE_AUTODISABLE() macro available.


The issue I'm trying to fix:

- The mclk clock is stopped (after some time) by imx SOC when I end
  'speaker-test' program with ctrl+c.

- When the clock is not provided (after ~1sec) I do hear a single short
  noise from speakers.

- The other solution (which also works) would be to enable clock once
  (during probe) and then do not disable it till system is powered
  off (yes it is a hack :-) ).


I'm wondering if this can be fixed by some 'amixer' user space switch?

Thanks in advance for help.

Lukasz Majewski

If there's a user visible control for the same register bit that's a
bug.  If there's no user visible control for it then there's nothing to
conflict with.

> And on the other hand it is not correct to just mute the speakers?

No, that's not what we're muting playback for - the digital mute is
there specifically to deal with issues with host controllers outputing
noise during startup/teardown.  If there are issues with the speaker
output then they need to be addressed at that point, especially given
that the device has bypass paths.

That seems solvable?  Though if the issue isn't triggered in connection
with a DAPM event (which sounds like the case) then it's probably not
going to help.

If the issue is triggered by the MCLK being disabled prematurely then
the simplest fix is probably to wire up the CODEC MCLK to the clock API
and manage it during set_bias_level() (probably on transition out of and
into _STANDBY) - that should have a similar effect to leaving it enabled
all the time.

Given that the device requires configuration and doesn't appear to have
any other firmware interface support that's rather a strong statement...

Thanks for the comment :-)

My point is that - similar codec - wm8974 don't display such warnings.
(this code was not updated/refactored for a quite long time).

Perhaps those drivers are buggy, or those devices lack this specific
configuration that's being adjusted?  The changelog should at least
address why the driver was warning about configuration being required
but it's safe to ignore that.

With v4.4 from which I forward port those changes only the PXA
'stargate2' mach is using this codec.

In this version there is no reference to 'vroi'.

With newest Linux - there is no reference to this codec (even to any
DTS file), so we can assume that from at least v4.4 there is no
reference to platform data for it.


I guess that one can provide the 'vroi' information via DTS nowadays if
required.


Best regards,

That's equivalent to setting a value of 0 given the way platform data
works.

Yes, that's what I'd expect.
