iMX8QXP SPDIF problem "cannot set hw params: Invalid argument"

Dear NXP experts:

Now I'm using SPDIF as the primary audio card of Android 10 on iMX8QXP mek board. I don't need the codec code and just output the SPDIF signal form SPDIF0_TX pin. The SDK version is imx8_10_2.2.0 .

My DTS config like this:

 

// imx8x-mek.dtsi
&spdif0 {
	compatible = "fsl,imx8qm-spdif";
	pinctrl-names = "default";
	pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_spdif0>;
	assigned-clocks = <&acm IMX_ADMA_ACM_SPDIF0_TX_CLK_SEL>,
			<&clk IMX_SC_R_AUDIO_PLL_0 IMX_SC_PM_CLK_PLL>,
			<&clk IMX_SC_R_AUDIO_PLL_0 IMX_SC_PM_CLK_SLV_BUS>,
			<&clk IMX_SC_R_AUDIO_PLL_0 IMX_SC_PM_CLK_MST_BUS>,
			<&spdif0_lpcg 0>;
	assigned-clock-parents = <&aud_pll_div0_lpcg 0>;
	assigned-clock-rates = <0>, <786432000>, <49152000>, <24576000>, <49152000>;
	status = "okay";
};

pinctrl_spdif0: spdif0grp {
	fsl,pins = <
		IMX8QXP_SPDIF0_TX_ADMA_SPDIF0_TX        0xc6000040
		IMX8QXP_SPDIF0_RX_ADMA_SPDIF0_RX        0xc6000040
	>;
};

// imxqxp-mek.dts
sound-dummy {
	compatible = "fsl,imx-audio-dummy";
	model = "imx-dummy";
	dai-controller = <&sai0>, <&sai1>, <&esai0>, <&spdif0>;
	dai-codec = <&codec_dummy>;
	status = "okay";
};

 

The driver modified from NXP dummy codec example, and the part of SPDIF copy from kernel/sound/soc/fsl/imx-spdif.c like this:

 

// imx-dummy.c
static int imx_dummy_spdif_hw_params(struct snd_pcm_substream *substream,
									 struct snd_pcm_hw_params *params)
{
	struct snd_soc_pcm_runtime *rtd = substream->private_data;
	struct device *dev = rtd->card->dev;
	int ret = 0;
	unsigned int freq;

	printk("run in %s\n", __func__);

	if (substream->stream == SNDRV_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK) {
		u64 rate = params_rate(params);

		freq = do_div(rate, 8000) ? CLK_11K_FREQ : CLK_8K_FREQ;
		ret = snd_soc_dai_set_sysclk(rtd->cpu_dai, STC_TXCLK_SPDIF_ROOT,
									 freq, SND_SOC_CLOCK_OUT);
		if (ret)
			dev_err(dev, "failed to set cpu sysclk: %d\n", ret);
	}

	return ret;
}
static struct snd_soc_ops imx_aif_spdif_ops = {
	.hw_params = imx_dummy_spdif_hw_params,
};

static int imx_dummy_probe(struct platform_device *pdev)
{
	...
	for (i = 0; i < num_dai; i++) {
		...
		priv->dai[i].stream_name = "SAI S/PDIF PCM";
		priv->dai[i].codecs->dai_name = "snd-soc-dummy-dai";
		priv->dai[i].codecs->name = "snd-soc-dummy";
		...
		if (strstr(cpu_np->name, "spdif")) {
			priv->dai[i].ops = &imx_aif_spdif_ops;
		} else {
		...
	...
}

 

But it seems not work when I use tinyplay to play wav files:

 

mek_8q:/sdcard/Music # cat /proc/asound/cards
 0 [imxdummy       ]: imx-dummy - imx-dummy
                      imx-dummy

8       BOOL    1       IEC958 Rx Raw Capture Mode Bit           Off

 

After configured the SPDIF(/dev/snd/pcmC0D3x, port = 3) as the primary card in vendor/nxp-opensource/imx/alsa/tinyalsa_hal.cpp, the logcat like this when playing audio in app:

 

02-01 07:15:14.972   371  2137 I audio_hw_primary: start_output_stream: out: 0xe8f47600, device: 2, address: , mode: 0, flags 0x2

02-01 07:15:14.981   371  2137 V audio_hw_primary: write error, sleep few ms

 

Is there anything else I need to do for this problem? Thank you!

Hi Buridan

 

such configuration (without codec) is not supported in nxp bsps, in general one

can try to follow similar example with "simple-audio-card "

https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/linux-imx/tree/arch/arm64/boot/dts/freescale/imx8qxp-mek-...

https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/linux-imx/tree/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/sound/si...

Use Chapter 7 Audio   i.MX Linux Reference Manual​   describing all linux ALSA software layers

 

Best regards
igor

Dear igor:

Do you mean the S/PDIF can only be used in "simple-audio-card" framework? Currently I am using the custom machine driver to create audio card.

I may posted the wrong information that the codec of the sound card is dummy audio codec which is refer to the Dummy audio codec - play & record on i.MX8MM.

And if I just use the S/PDIF driver at kernel/sound/soc/fsl/imx-spdif.c (block the imx-dummy.c) refer to the i.MX Linux Reference Manual in capter 7.4.2~7.4.5, the dts:

 

sound-spdif {
	compatible = "fsl,imx-audio-spdif";
	model = "imx-spdif";
	spdif-controller = <&spdif0>;
	spdif-in;
	spdif-out;
};

 

Then I will get the same problem in the main post. Except the S/PDIF, the SAI/ESAI has already worked with dummy codec.
