Hey!
Thanks for Your input!
I've created that patch because our validation is actually checking if
values
in SDnFMT are matching their expectations, and they've found it
indicates 32 bits in 32 container while playing 24 bits in 32 container.
This could be fixed without touching checks of maxbps:
switch (snd_pcm_format_width(format)) {
case 8:
val |= AC_FMT_BITS_8;
break;
case 16:
val |= AC_FMT_BITS_16;
break;
case 20:
val |= AC_FMT_BITS_20;
break;
case 24:
if (maxbps >= 24)
val |= AC_FMT_BITS_24;
else
val |= AC_FMT_BITS_20;
break;
case 32:
if (maxbps >= 32 || format == SNDRV_PCM_FORMAT_FLOAT_LE)
val |= AC_FMT_BITS_32;
else if (maxbps >= 24)
val |= AC_FMT_BITS_24;
else
val |= AC_FMT_BITS_20;
break;
default:
return 0;
}
I've simplified that because maxbps seems redundant here - thansk for
catching Kai!
Although reason of usage maxbps is still not clear (at least for me).

So, for me looks like place where we can align with actual format, right ?

Here I'm also not sure if we should just "cut" format in
snd_hdac_calc_stream_format (eg. 32 to 24) if codec does not support 32?

Fix setting SDnFMT based on High Definition Audio Specification Rev. 1.0a page 48. Bits per Sample (BITS): 000 = 8 bits. The data will be packed in memory in 8-bit containers on 16-bit boundaries. 001 = 16 bits. The data will be packed in memory in 16-bit containers on 16-bit boundaries. 010 = 20 bits. The data will be packed in memory in 32-bit containers on 32-bit boundaries. 011 = 24 bits. The data will be packed in memory in 32-bit containers on 32-bit boundaries. 100 = 32 bits. The data will be packed in memory in 32-bit containers on 32-bit boundaries. 101-111 = Reserved Set SDnFMT depending on which format was given, as maxbps only describes container size. Henceforth split cases for formats 20, 24, 32 bits. For format SNDRV_PCM_FORMAT_FLOAT_LE width is equal 32 so as previously it will end up with mask for 32 bits.
