Hi Russell:

thks for your replay, actually you also have send me those dw-hdmi-audio.c patches, and I also agree it's an beautiful way to make hdmi-audio works. Beside,
I try to reuse it into our platform, and actually the system have created the DW_HDMI sound card successfully, but i cannot play any sound with this sound card.
After dump the registers, I found the part of "Audio DMA Registers" cannot write and always read with 0x00. So I searching the document "Designware Core
HDMI Transmitter Controller Databook", and found that "Audio DMA Registers" only present when the hardware configuration parameter AUDIO_IF is set to
AHBAUDDMA. Than I communicate with our IC colleagues, they told me that our cpu rk3288 only support two way to transmit audio data( I2S & SPDIF ), in that
way we do not support AHB_DMA, it's very sad, and this it why i give up this way, also it's my bad that i should replay to u first in the before mail.


Best Regards.

I2S as hdmi audio operation interfaces, and then treat hdmi audio as an
standard ALSA devices(only got platback function).
There is no need for dw-hdmi audio to be implemented as an ASoC
device - as I've already sent patches to Andy with my ALSA driver
which has been around for the last two years, and works well, and
doesn't require any additional DT description.
