Documentation: use a source-read extension for the index link boilerplate

2026-01-23T18:59:34+00:00

The root document usually has a special :ref:`genindex` link to the generated index. This is also the case for Documentation/index.rst. The other index.rst files deeper in the directory hierarchy usually don't. For SPHINXDIRS builds, the root document isn't Documentation/index.rst, but some other index.rst in the hierarchy. Currently they have a ".. only::" block to add the index link when doing SPHINXDIRS html builds. This is obviously very tedious and repetitive. The link is also added to all index.rst files in the hierarchy for SPHINXDIRS builds, not just the root document. Put the boilerplate in a sphinx-includes/subproject-index.rst file, and include it at the end of the root document for subproject builds in an ad-hoc source-read extension defined in conf.py. For now, keep having the boilerplate in translations, because this approach currently doesn't cover translated index link headers.

soundwire: update Intel BPT message length limitation

2025-06-09T16:12:18+00:00

The limitation of "must be multiples of 32 bytes" does not fit the requirement of current Intel platforms. Update it to meet the requirement.

soundwire: stream: extend sdw_alloc_stream() to take 'type' parameter

2025-03-10T07:01:18+00:00

In the existing definition of sdw_stream_runtime, the 'type' member is never set and defaults to PCM. To prepare for the BPT/BRA support, we need to special-case streams and make use of the 'type'. No functional change for now, the implicit PCM type is now explicit.

docs: soundwire: fix some identation at stream.rst

2020-09-10T16:49:29+00:00

Currently, sphinx emits one warning on this file: Documentation/driver-api/soundwire/stream.rst:522: WARNING: Block quote ends without a blank line; unexpected unindent. That's due to some extra spaces before the title of a chapter. Yet, the list afterwards is missing identation. So, address both issues.

In preparation for future extensions, rename functions to use sdw_bus_master prefix and add a parent and fwnode argument to sdw_bus_master_add to help with device registration in follow-up patches. No functionality change, just renames and additional arguments. The Intel code is currently unused, the two additional arguments are only needed for compilation.

soundwire: stream: update state machine and add state checks

2020-02-13T10:27:37+00:00

The state machine and notes don't accurately explain or allow transitions from STREAM_DEPREPARED and STREAM_DISABLED. Add more explanations and allow for more transitions as a result of a trigger_stop(), trigger_suspend() and prepare(), depending on the ALSA/ASoC layer behavior defined by the INFO_RESUME and INFO_PAUSE flags. Also add basic checks to help debug inconsistent states and illegal state machine transitions.
