Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] ASoC: mchp-pdmc: fix poc noises when starting capture

To start capture on Microchip PDMC the enable bits for each supported
microphone need to be set. After this bit is set the PDMC starts to
receive data from microphones and it considers this data as valid data.
Thus if microphones are not ready the PDMC captures anyway data from its
lines. This data is interpreted by the human ear as poc noises.

To avoid this the following software workaround need to be applied when
starting capture:
1/ enable PDMC channel
2/ wait 150ms
3/ execute 16 dummy reads from RHR
4/ clear interrupts
5/ enable interrupts
6/ enable DMA channel

For this workaround to work step 6 need to be executed at the end.
For step 6 was added patch 1/3 from this series. With this, component
DAI driver sets its struct snd_soc_component_driver::start_dma_last = 1
and proper action is taken based on this flag when starting DAI trigger
vs DMA.

Thank you,
Claudiu Beznea

Changes in v2:
- patch 1/3 from v1 is now "ASoC: soc-pcm: add option to start DMA after DAI"
- pass start_dma_last from component DAI driver object
(struct snd_soc_component_driver::start_dma_last); adapt patch 3/3 after this;
- in patch 1/3 s/Do we need to start dma first/Do we need to start dma last
in comment from soc_pcm_trigger()
- collect review tag from Krzysztof

Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] ASoC: mchp-pdmc: fix poc noise at capture startup

Microchip PDMC IP doesn't filter microphone noises on startup. By default,
it captures data received from digital microphones after
the MCHP_PDMC_MR.EN bits are set. Thus when enable is set on PDMC side the
digital microphones might not be ready yet and PDMC captures data from then
in this time. This data captured is poc noise. To avoid this the software
workaround is to the following:
1/ enable PDMC channel
2/ wait 150ms (on SAMA7G5-EK setup)
3/ execute 16 dummy reads from RHR
4/ clear interrupts
5/ enable interrupts
6/ enable DMA channel

Hi, Mark,

If this is applied as is please add proper Depends-on tag to point to
patch 1/3 commit id to ease the backporting on older kernels, if any.

Can all of the above be implemented similarly to already present
stop_dma_first? It looks similar and I don't see reason to have one flag
in snd_soc_component_driver and other in snd_soc_dai_link.

That was the other solution identified; I mentioned it in v1; from v1 cover
letter/discussions:

The other solution that was identified for this was to extend the already
existing mechanism around struct snd_soc_dai_link::stop_dma_first. The downside
of this was that a potential struct snd_soc_dai_link::start_dma_last
would have to be populated on sound card driver thus, had to be taken
into account in all sound card drivers. At the moment, the mchp-pdmc is
used only with simple-audio-card. In case of simple-audio-card a new DT
binding would had to be introduced to specify this action on dai-link
descriptions (as of my investigation).

PDMC can work with different kind of microphones, thus different boards
could have different microphones. Depending on microphone type the PDMC
would need to wait longer or shorter period than the default chosen period
to filter unwanted noise. Thus the need of having this specified though
device tree. Would you prefer to have this in commit message?

Thank you,
