Use the control interface (field 'components' in the info structure)
to pass the I/O configuration details. The long card name might
be used in GUI. This information should be hidden.

If this is at the board level, then maybe move this to 
sound/soc/intel/boards/Kconfig

I am not sure about the alsa-lib dependency, it's a bit odd, isn't it?
shouldn't this be handled via protocol versions? or a configuration 
provided by alsa-lib somehow?

It's not about the protocol. It's about to move this type of information to 
another place. I can remove the ALSA version sentence from the help, because 
it's just a hint. I would like to create ucm2 configurations based on this 
rather than the misused long card names.

I am with you on the idea, it's the transition that worries me. I guess 
for a distro that would be fine, one would hope that there is a 
communication between the alsa-lib and the kernel configurations parts, 
but for a random user there's a chance that they would not select this 
and not use ucm2 and vice versa.

it's also painful for kernel developers to rely on to-be-released 
alsa-lib changes, we've been there with SOF and I don't know how many 
times we had reports of issues related to alsa-lib setup problems. Here 
it'd be worse since alsa-lib updates would need to be deployed on target 
devices.

Again I am not against the idea, but anything we can do to reuse 
friction during the transition will help a great deal.

I think that the most of issues were because there was no stable ucm upstream 
for SOF. I've seen multiple variants of UCM configuration files for SOF (and 
everything will be finalized with 5.5 kernel!).

Thinking more, we can create an ucm2 configuration which will handle both 
cases (independent on CONFIG_SND_SOC_INTEL_USE_CTL_COMPONENTS). I prepared an 
example:

But why these are exclusive?  The current longname workaround makes
the device appearing a bit messy, but does it conflict with the
additional component string?


thanks,

Yeah, it's not clear to me why it's a config option to enable this.  I
can see a config option to turn off the old display name if it's
particularly irritating to people but I can't see any reason not to
just provide the new stuff.

Yes, it is really better way to do this. I'll rewrite my patch. Thanks for the 
idea.

That'd be fine with me. There's a bit of duplication but it's manageable.

Rather than keep this forever, may we force the use of these components 
for HDaudio+DMIC devices that are only handled by SOF, starting with 5.5 
w/ ucm2, and for older devices BYT/CHT devices ucm2 files are backwards 
compatible on two levels (SOF or legacy, and longnames or components)?
