As diffstat shows we've had again a lot of works done for this cycle:
majority of changes are the continued componentization and code
refactoring in ASoC, the tree-wide PCM API updates and cleanups
and SOF updates while a few ASoC driver updates are seen, too.
Here we go, some highlights:
Core:
- Finally y2038 support landed to ALSA ABI;
some ioctls have been extended and lots of tricks were applied
- Applying the new managed PCM buffer API to all drivers;
the API itself was already merged in 5.5
- The already deprecated dimension support in ALSA control API is
dropped completely now
- Verification of ALSA control elements to catch API misuses
ASoC:
- Further code refactorings and moving things to the component level
- Lots of updates and improvements on SOF / Intel drivers;
now including common HDMI driver and SoundWire support
- New driver support for Ingenic JZ4770, Mediatek MT6660, Qualcomm
WCD934x and WSA881x, and Realtek RT700, RT711, RT715, RT1011, RT1015
and RT1308
HD-audio:
- Improved ring-buffer communications using waitqueue
- Drop the superfluous buffer preallocation on x86
Others:
- Many code cleanups, mostly constifications over the whole tree
- USB-audio: quirks for MOTU, Corsair Virtuoso, Line6 Helix
- FireWire: code refactoring for oxfw and dice drivers
