Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] Properly fix headphone noise on the XPS 13 and other ALC256 devices


The root cause of various pervasive audio problems on the XPS 13
9350/9360, mostly relating to the headphone jack, turns out to be an
undocumented feature of the ALC256 and similar codecs that routes audio
along paths not exposed in the HDA node graph. The best we've had so far
to configure this feature is magic numbers provided by Realtek, none of
which have fully fixed all issues.

This series documents the "PC Beep Hidden Register", which controls the
feature and which I've reverse engineered using black box techniques,
and uses my findings to hopefully fix the headphone issues on my XPS 13
once and for all.

Changes in v2:
- Change fixed value from 0x4727 to 0x5757, which should behave
identically, on advice from Kailang.

Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] ALSA: hda/realtek - Remove now-unnecessary XPS 13 headphone noise fixups

patch_realtek.c has historically failed to properly configure the PC
Beep Hidden Register for the ALC256 codec (among others). Depending on
your kernel version, symptoms of this misconfiguration can range from
chassis noise, picked up by a poorly-shielded PCBEEP trace, getting
amplified and played on your internal speaker and/or headphones to loud
feedback, which responds to the "Headphone Mic Boost" ALSA control,
getting played through your headphones. For details of the problem, see
the patch in this series titled "ALSA: hda/realtek - Set principled PC
Beep configuration for ALC256", which fixes the configuration.

These symptoms have been most noticed on the Dell XPS 13 9350 and 9360,
popular laptops that use the ALC256. As a result, several model-specific
fixups have been introduced to try and fix the problem, the most
egregious of which locks the "Headphone Mic Boost" control as a hack to
minimize noise from a feedback loop that shouldn't have been there in
the first place.

Now that the underlying issue has been fixed, remove all these fixups.
Remaining fixups needed by the XPS 13 are all picked up by existing pin
quirks.

This change should, for the XPS 13 9350/9360

- Significantly increase volume and audio quality on headphones
- Eliminate headphone popping on suspend/resume
- Allow "Headphone Mic Boost" to be set again, making the headphone
jack fully usable as a microphone jack too.

Subject: [PATCH v2 2/3] ALSA: hda/realtek - Set principled PC Beep configuration for ALC256

The Realtek PC Beep Hidden Register[1] is currently set by
patch_realtek.c in two different places:

In alc_fill_eapd_coef(), it's set to the value 0x5757, corresponding to
non-beep input on 1Ah and no 1Ah loopback to either headphones or
speakers. (Although, curiously, the loopback amp is still enabled.) This
write was added fairly recently by commit e3743f431143 ("ALSA:
hda/realtek - Dell headphone has noise on unmute for ALC236") and is a
safe default. However, it happens in the wrong place:
alc_fill_eapd_coef() runs on module load and cold boot but not on S3
resume, meaning the register loses its value after suspend.

Conversely, in alc256_init(), the register is updated to unset bit 13
(disable speaker loopback) and set bit 5 (set non-beep input on 1Ah).
Although this write does run on S3 resume, it's not quite enough to fix
up the register's default value of 0x3717. What's missing is a set of
bit 14 to disable headphone loopback. Without that, we end up with a
feedback loop where the headphone jack is being driven by amplified
samples of itself[2].

This change eliminates the update in alc256_init() and replaces it with
the 0x5757 write from alc_fill_eapd_coef(). Kailang says that 0x5757 is
supposed to be the codec's default value, so using it will make
debugging easier for Realtek.

Affects the ALC255, ALC256, ALC257, ALC235, and ALC236 codecs.

[1] Newly documented in Documentation/sound/hd-audio/realtek-pc-beep.rst

[2] Setting the "Headphone Mic Boost" control from userspace changes
this feedback loop and has been a widely-shared workaround for headphone
noise on laptops like the Dell XPS 13 9350. This commit eliminates the
feedback loop and makes the workaround unnecessary.

Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] ALSA: doc: Document PC Beep Hidden Register on Realtek ALC256

This codec (among others) has a hidden set of audio routes, apparently
designed to allow PC Beep output without a mixer widget on the output
path, which are controlled by an undocumented Realtek vendor register.
The default configuration of these routes means that certain inputs
aren't accessible, necessitating driver control of the register.
However, Realtek has provided no documentation of the register, instead
opting to fix issues by providing magic numbers, most of which have been
at least somewhat erroneous. These magic numbers then get copied by
others into model-specific fixups, leading to a fragmented and buggy set
of configurations.

To get out of this situation, I've reverse engineered the register by
flipping bits and observing how the codec's behavior changes. This
commit documents my findings. It does not change any code.

+Realtek PC Beep Hidden Register
+===============================
+
+This file documents the "PC Beep Hidden Register", which is present in certain
+Realtek HDA codecs and controls a muxer and pair of passthrough mixers that can
+route audio between pins but aren't themselves exposed as HDA widgets. As far
+as I can tell, these hidden routes are designed to allow flexible PC Beep output
+for codecs that don't have mixer widgets in their output paths. Why it's easier
+to hide a mixer behind an undocumented vendor register than to just expose it
+as a widget, I have no idea.
+
+Register Description
+====================
+
+The register is accessed via processing coefficient 0x36 on NID 20h. Bits not
+identified below have no discernible effect on my machine, a Dell XPS 13 9350::

+ When zero, expose the PC Beep line (from the internal beep generator, when

+ external PCBEEP pin) on the 1Ah pin node. When nonzero, expose the headphone
+ jack (or possibly Line In on some machines) input instead. If PC Beep is
+ selected, the 1Ah boost control has no effect.
+
+Amplify 1Ah loopback, left (L): 1 bit
+ Amplify the left channel of 1Ah before mixing it into outputs as specified

+
+Amplify 1Ah loopback, right (R): 1 bit
+ Amplify the right channel of 1Ah before mixing it into outputs as specified
+ by h and S bits. Does not affect the level of 1Ah exposed to other widgets.
+
+Loopback 1Ah to 21h [active low] (h): 1 bit
+ When zero, mix 1Ah (possibly with amplification, depending on L and R bits)
+ into 21h (headphone jack on my machine). Mixed signal respects the mute
+ setting on 21h.
+
+Loopback 1Ah to 14h (S): 1 bit
+ When one, mix 1Ah (possibly with amplification, depending on L and R bits)
+ into 14h (internal speaker on my machine). Mixed signal **ignores** the mute
+ setting on 14h and is present whenever 14h is configured as an output.

+
+Background
+==========
+
+All Realtek HDA codecs have a vendor-defined widget with node ID 20h which
+provides access to a bank of registers that control various codec functions.
+Registers are read and written via the standard HDA processing coefficient
+verbs (Set/Get Coefficient Index, Set/Get Processing Coefficient). The node is
+named "Realtek Vendor Registers" in public datasheets' verb listings and,
+apart from that, is entirely undocumented.
+
+This particular register, exposed at coefficient 0x36 and named in commits from
+Realtek, is of note: unlike most registers, which seem to control detailed
+amplifier parameters not in scope of the HDA specification, it controls audio
+routing which could just as easily have been defined using standard HDA mixer
+and selector widgets.
+
+Specifically, it selects between two sources for the input pin widget with Node
+ID (NID) 1Ah: the widget's signal can come either from an audio jack (on my
+laptop, a Dell XPS 13 9350, it's the headphone jack, but comments in Realtek
+commits indicate that it might be a Line In on some machines) or from the PC
+Beep line (which is itself multiplexed between the codec's internal beep
+generator and external PCBEEP pin, depending on if the beep generator is
+enabled via verbs on NID 01h). Additionally, it can mix (with optional
+amplification) that signal onto the 21h and/or 14h output pins.
+
+The register's reset value is 0x3717, corresponding to PC Beep on 1Ah that is
+then amplified and mixed into both the headphones and the speakers. Not only
+does this violate the HDA specification, which says that "[a vendor defined
+beep input pin] connection may be maintained *only* while the Link reset
+(**RST#**) is asserted", it means that we cannot ignore the register if we care
+about the input that 1Ah would otherwise expose or if the PCBEEP trace is
+poorly shielded and picks up chassis noise (both of which are the case on my
+machine).
+
+Unfortunately, there are lots of ways to get this register configuration wrong.
+Linux, it seems, has gone through most of them. For one, the register resets
+after S3 suspend: judging by existing code, this isn't the case for all vendor
+registers, and it's led to some fixes that improve behavior on cold boot but
+don't last after suspend. Other fixes have successfully switched the 1Ah input
+away from PC Beep but have failed to disable both loopback paths. On my
+machine, this means that the headphone input is amplified and looped back to
+the headphone output, which uses the exact same pins! As you might expect, this
+causes terrible headphone noise, the character of which is controlled by the
+1Ah boost control. (If you've seen instructions online to fix XPS 13 headphone
+noise by changing "Headphone Mic Boost" in ALSA, now you know why.)
+
+The information here has been obtained through black-box reverse engineering of
+the ALC256 codec's behavior and is not guaranteed to be correct. It likely
+also applies for the ALC255, ALC257, ALC235, and ALC236, since those codecs
+seem to be close relatives of the ALC256. (They all share one initialization
+function.) Additionally, other codecs like the ALC225 and ALC285 also have this
+register, judging by existing fixups in ``patch_realtek.c``, but specific
+data (e.g. node IDs, bit positions, pin mappings) for those codecs may differ
+from what I've described here.

Now applied all three patches. The patch 2 had an incorrect Fixes tag
(pointing to the stable commit instead of the original commit) so I
corrected locally.
