sound updates for 7.2-rc1 Unsurprisingly, we've had a fairly busy development cycle with various fixes and enhancements. While the majority of changes consist of device-specific fixes, a significant number of cleanups, hardening, and modernizations have been applied to the core frameworks as well. Below are some highlights: * ALSA Core: - Hardening, race condition, and UAF/leak fixes in the ALSA timer and sequencer cores - Widespread adoption of flexible array members across core structures - Integration of new simple refcount helper functions to simplify code * ASoC Core: - Introduction of a unified SoundWire enumeration helper to clean up redundant device initialization across codecs - Enhancements to SDCA support, including handling devices with multiple functions of the same type and proper jack reporting masks - Continued refactoring of ASoC component debugfs and DAPM structures - Simplification and improvements to the format auto-selection mechanism - Added shared BCLK rate constraints for cross-DAI coordination * ASoC Platforms & Codecs: - Initial bring-up and power management support for AMD ACP 7.x - Support for Everest Semi ES9356 (SDCA), Mediatek MT2701 (on-chip HDMI) and MT8196 SoCs, Renesas RZ/G3E, SpacemiT K3, and TI TAC5xx2/TAS67524 - Added a new generic driver for GPIO-driven amplifiers - Continued mass conversion of locking code to guard() helpers across numerous platform drivers (MediaTek, Rockchip, STM32, Samsung, etc.) - Cleanup of legacy non-DT platform data and rollbacks for obsolete SH Ecovec24/7724se boards * HD- and USB-Audio: - Device-specific hardware quirks and fixes for various Realtek HD-Audio devices (Lenovo, HP, ASUS, Acer, Clevo) - Refinements to Qualcomm USB-audio offloading support - Front-panel controls and autogain status support for Scarlett Gen 4 - Quirks for XIBERIA (K03S), Sennheiser (MOMENTUM 3), Edifier (MF200), Novation (Mininova), and Behringer (Flow 8) USB-audio devices - Improved robustness by rolling back or propagating write errors to the mixer control caches (Babyface Pro, US-16x08, Scarlett) * Others: - Support for the HT-Omega eClaro PCI sound card in the Oxygen driver - Robustness improvements and fixes for Virtio-audio, Xen-front, and legacy OSS dmasound drivers
Merge tag 'asoc-v7.2' of https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound into for-linus ASoC: Updates for v7.2 There's been quite a lot of framework improvements this time around, though mainly cleanups and robustness rather than user visible features. The same pattern is seen with a lot of the driver work that's going on, there are new features but a huge proportion of this is bug fixing and cleanup work. We also have a good selectio of new device support. - Improvements to SDCA jack handling from Charles Keepax. - Use of device links to make suspend handling more robust from Richard Fitzgerald. - Use of a new helper to factor out a common pattern in SoundWire enmeration from Charles Keepax. - Slimming down of the component from Kuninori Morimoto. - Simplification of format auto selection from Kuninori Morimoto. - Lots of conversions to guard() from Bui Duc Phuc. - Addition of a simple-amplifier driver supporting more featureful GPIO controller amplifiers than the previous basic driver from Herve Codina. - Support for AMD ACP 7.x, Cirrus Logic CS42448/CS42888, Everest Semi ES9356, Mediatek MT2701 and MT8196, Renesas RZ/G3E, Spacemit K3, Texas Instruments TAC5xx2 and TAS67524.
