[PATCH 0/3] add channel constraint for BDW machine drivers

[PATCH 0/3] add channel constraint for BDW machine drivers

[Brent Lu]

The machine driver bdw-rt5650 (for Google buddy) supports 2 or 4-channel
recording while other two drivers support only 2-channel recording. HW
constraints are implemented to reflect the hardware limitation on BDW
platform.

Sometimes you add a newline add and before, while other times just one, 
before the comment. Please streamline the format across all patches in 
the series. Comment can be more strict too

Inline. If you really want to avoid using 2, make use of 0-entry of

What about playback configurations?

Title for the overall series fits better than the one chosen for actual 
patches. "channel constraint support" is misleading. Constraints are

Remove, we need not additional too-obvious macro. One could argue 
'STEREO' is a better choice for '2' channel configuration too.

The FE DAI supports stereo playback only so I don't install the constraint for playback stream.

static struct snd_soc_dai_driver hsw_dais[] = {
	{
		.name  = "System Pin",
		.id = HSW_PCM_DAI_ID_SYSTEM,
		.playback = {
			.stream_name = "System Playback",
			.channels_min = 2,
			.channels_max = 2,
			.rates = SNDRV_PCM_RATE_48000,
			.formats = SNDRV_PCM_FMTBIT_S24_LE | SNDRV_PCM_FMTBIT_S16_LE,

I just copy the assignment from other machine driver but I think the assignment is
redundant. The runtime->hw will be initialized in the dpcm_init_runtime_hw()
function and the channel_max will be overwritten.

dpcm_fe_dai_startup
-> dpcm_be_dai_startup
-> soc_pcm_open
    => here our bdw_fe_startup () is called
-> dpcm_set_fe_runtime
---> dpcm_init_runtime_hw
    => here runtime->hw is initialized

Message body relates to bdw-rt5650 while the series touches every of BDW 
boards.

Apart from review given for each and every patch (although most issues 
are shared so there is not as much to address) my question is:
- are these hw limitations or software (machine board) limitations?

Ignore my first sentence :-) Second still applies though

The limitation comes from board. Bdw-rt5677 and Broadwell are using I2S with
2 microphones while Bdw-rt5650 is using PCM TDM with 4 microphones. Our
DSP supports stereo playback and 2 or 4-channel capture (haswell/sst-haswell-pcm.c).
