Device tree

配置SAI Linux内核驱动时,请参考SAI device tree configuration 文章。

How to use

可以通过ALSA设备从用户域访问SAI Linux驱动程序。有关如何列出和使用ALSA设备的信息,请参考ALSA overview

How to trace and debug

可以检查调试文件系统(debugfs) 和procfs文件系统以获取有关SAI驱动程序及其使用的资源的信息。 下面提供了这些文件系统条目的详尽列表。 有关调试工具的更多详细信息,请参见ALSA overview

  • debugfs条目:
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/regmap/xxx.audio-controller/registers
  • procfs条目:
$ cat /proc/interrupts

Source code location

The STM32 SAI peripheral includes two independent audio subblocks that share common resources. The driver source code reflects this architecture.

sound/soc/stm/stm32_sai.c| |}} sound/soc/stm/stm32_sai.c : handles common resources such as clock, interrupt, reset and shared register.

sound/soc/stm/stm32_sai_sub.c| |}} sound/soc/stm/stm32_sai_sub.c : handles the resources dedicated to each subblock.
