The topology needs to set the DMIC channel number according to the number of transducers connected to the codec. This information can be provided via the DAI link name for proper topology selection.

Pull request overview

This PR adds support for deriving the SoundWire DMIC channel/transducer count from SDCA firmware-described entities and appending that count to Intel SOF SoundWire DAI link names, enabling more precise topology selection based on connected microphone transducers.

Changes:

  • Add sdca_get_mic_count() to parse SDCA Function entity metadata and return a microphone transducer count.
  • Update Intel SOF SoundWire machine driver to query SDCA SmartMic functions and suffix the DAI link name with -<N>ch.
  • Expose the new helper via include/sound/sdca.h and import the SDCA symbol namespace in the machine driver.

File Description
sound/soc/sdca/sdca_functions.c Adds sdca_get_mic_count() to parse SDCA entity properties and extract microphone transducer count.
sound/soc/intel/boards/sof_sdw.c Appends SDCA-derived mic channel count to SoundWire capture link name for topology matching; adds SDCA namespace import.
include/sound/sdca.h Exposes sdca_get_mic_count() in the public SDCA header.

We can get how many mic transducers are connected to the codec.
The information will be used for selecting the topology with proper dmic
channel number.

The commit get the sdca sdw dmic number form the
mipi-sdca-cluster-channel-id property.
The dai link name will be used to select the function topology with a
proper dmic channel number.

dmic support

Now the machine driver provides the sdca dmic channel number information
in the dai link name. We can use the information to select different
topologies for different dmic channels. To be backward compatible, the
2ch sdca dmic topology will still use the "sdca-mic" topology.

sound/soc/sdca/sdca_functions.c:225

  • When the entity-id-list property is missing, fwnode_property_count_u32() returns a negative errno (typically -EINVAL), and the current log prints it as an "entity number" (e.g. -22), which is misleading. This can be made consistent with existing sdca parsing code (find_sdca_entities()) by distinguishing missing list vs exceeding SDCA_MAX_ENTITY_COUNT.
	num_entities = fwnode_property_count_u32(function_node,
					 "mipi-sdca-entity-id-list");
	if (num_entities <= 0 || num_entities > SDCA_MAX_ENTITY_COUNT) {
		dev_err(&slave->dev,
			"%pfwP: entity number %d is invalid for function type %u\n",
			function_node, num_entities, function->type);
		return -EINVAL;
	}
