Subject: [PATCH] ASoC: meson: implement driver_name for snd_soc_card in meson-card-utils
Date:   Sun, 17 Oct 2021 16:00:28 +0000
Message-Id: <20211017160028.23318-1-christianshewitt@gmail.com>
Precedence: bulk

Implement driver_name to provide an alternative to card_name for userspace
configuration of Amlogic audio cards.

The meson AIU/AXG drivers currently require alsa confs based on the board
model name which is unique to each board. This is very flexible for audio
use-cases, but not very maintainable for distros with a single use-case
that need to support a large number of different Amlogic boards. Using a
driver name to match the card conf instead of card/model name reduces the
number of confs needed in the LibreELEC (Kodi) distro from 41 to 2.
