Why will the capture stream always be NULL? There should be no intrinsic reason why we can't have hardware support for capturing compressed audio.

If I read the code correctly this will lead to _snd_pcm_new() to be called which in return will call snd_pcm_new_stream(pcm, SNDRV_PCM_STREAM_CAPTURE, capture_count) which will cause no substream to be allocated for the capture case, hence being NULL. I get an oops in my experimental driver when I set dynamic = 1 in FE dai link. If I did something wrong there that caused this, it's not obvious to me how. Maybe a better fix would be to replace the 1 and 0 in snd_pcm_new_internal() call with rtd->dai_link->dpcm_playback and rtd->dai_link->dpcm_capture.

In soc_new_compress() when rtd->dai_link->daynmic is set, we create the pcm substreams with this call: ret = snd_pcm_new_internal(rtd->card->snd_card, new_name, num, 1, 0, &be_pcm); which passes 0 as capture_count leading to be_pcm->streams[SNDRV_PCM_STREAM_CAPTURE].substream being NULL, hence when trying to set rtd a few lines below we get an oops. Fix by removing this line of code since CAPTURE substream will always be NULL.

I think the more correct solution would be to use the value of rtd->dai_link->dpcm_playback and rtd->dai_link->dpcm_capture in the args of snd_pcm_new_internal() for playback_count and capture_count. sound/soc/soc-compress.c | 1 - 1 file changed, 1 deletion(-)
