+Audio drivers for Cirrus Logic CS35L54/56/57 Boosted Smart Amplifiers
+=====================================================================
+:Copyright: 2025 Cirrus Logic, Inc. and
+ Cirrus Logic International Semiconductor Ltd.
+
+Contact: patches@opensource.cirrus.com
+
+Summary
+=======
+
+The high-level summary of this document is:
+
+**If you have a laptop that uses CS35L54/56/57 amplifiers but audio is not
+working, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO USE FIRMWARE AND SETTINGS FROM ANOTHER LAPTOP,
+EVEN IF THAT LAPTOP SEEMS SIMILAR.**
+
+The CS35L54/56/57 amplifiers must be correctly configured for the power
+supply voltage, speaker impedance, maximum speaker voltage/current, and
+other external hardware connections.
+
+The amplifiers feature advanced boost technology that increases the voltage
+used to drive the speakers, while proprietary speaker protection algorithms
+allow these boosted amplifiers to push the limits of the speakers without
+causing damage. These **must** be configured correctly.
+
+Supported Cirrus Logic amplifiers
+---------------------------------
+
+The cs35l56 drivers support:
+
+* CS35L54
+* CS35L56
+* CS35L57
+
+There are two drivers in the kernel
+
+*For systems using SoundWire*: sound/soc/codecs/cs35l56.c and associated files
+
+*For systems using HDA*: sound/pci/hda/cs35l56_hda.c
+
+Firmware
+========
+
+The amplifier is controlled and managed by firmware running on the internal
+DSP. Firmware files are essential to enable the full capabilities of the
+amplifier.
+
+Firmware is distributed in the linux-firmware repository:
+https://gitlab.com/kernel-firmware/linux-firmware.git
+
+On most SoundWire systems the amplifier has a default minimum capability to
+produce audio. However this will be
+
+* at low volume, to protect the speakers, since the speaker specifications
+ and power supply voltages are unknown.
+* a mono mix of left and right channels.
+
+On some SoundWire systems that have both CS42L43 and CS35L56/57 the CS35L56/57
+receive their audio from the CS42L43 instead of directly from the host
+SoundWire interface. These systems can be identified by the CS42L43 showing
+in dmesg as a SoundWire device, but the CS35L56/57 as SPI. On these systems
+the firmware is *mandatory* to enable receiving the audio from the CS42L43.
+
+On HDA systems the firmware is *mandatory* to enable HDA bridge mode. There
+will not be any audio from the amplifiers without firmware.
+
+Cirrus Logic firmware files
+---------------------------
+
+Each amplifier requires two firmware files. One file has a .wmfw suffix, the
+other has a .bin suffix.
+
+The firmware is customized by the OEM to match the hardware of each laptop,
+and the firmware is specific to that laptop. Because of this, there are many
+firmware files in linux-firmware for these amplifiers. Firmware files are
+**not interchangeable between laptops**.
+
+Cirrus Logic submits files for known laptops to the upstream linux-firmware
+repository. Providing Cirrus Logic is aware of a particular laptop and has
+permission from the manufacturer to publish the firmware, it will be pushed
+to linux-firmware. You may need to upgrade to a newer release of
+linux-firmware to obtain the firmware for your laptop.
+
+**Important:** the Makefile for linux-firmware creates symlinks that are listed
+in the WHENCE file. These symlinks are required for the CS35L56 driver to be
+able to load the firmware.
+
+How do I know which firmware file I should have?
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+All firmware file names are qualified with a unique "system ID". On normal
+x86 PCs with PCI audio this is the Vendor Subsystem ID (SSID) of the host
+PCI audio interface.
+
+The SSID can be viewed using the lspci tool::
+
+ lspci -v -nn | grep -A2 -i audio
+ 0000:00:1f.3 Audio device [0403]: Intel Corporation Meteor Lake-P HD Audio Controller [8086:7e28]
+ Subsystem: Dell Meteor Lake-P HD Audio Controller [1028:0c63]
+
+In this example the SSID is 10280c63.
+
+The format of the firmware file names is:
+
+ cs35lxx-b0-dsp1-misc-SSID[-spkidX]-ampN
+
+Where:
+
+ * cs35lxx-b0 is the amplifier model and silicon revision. This information
+ is logged by the driver during initialization.
+ * SSID is the 8-digit hexadecimal SSID value.
+ * ampN is the amplifier number (for example amp1). This is the same as
+ the prefix on the ALSA control names except that it is always lower-case
+ in the file name.
+ * spkidX is an optional part, used for laptops that have firmware
+ configurations for different makes and models of internal speakers.
+
+Sound Open Firmware and ALSA topology files
+-------------------------------------------
+
+All SoundWire systems will require a Sound Open Firmware (SOF) for the
+host CPU audio DSP, together with an ALSA topology file (.tplg).
+
+The SOF firmware will usually be provided by the manufacturer of the host
+CPU (i.e. Intel or AMD). The .tplg file is normally part of the SOF firmware
+release.
+
+SOF binary builds are available from: https://github.com/thesofproject/sof-bin/releases
+
+The main SOF source is here: https://github.com/thesofproject
+
+ALSA-ucm configurations
+-----------------------
+Typically an appropriate ALSA-ucm configuration file is needed for
+use-case managers and audio servers such as PipeWire.
+
+Configuration files are available from the alsa-ucm-conf repository:
+https://git.alsa-project.org/?p=alsa-ucm-conf.git

+
+ * The actual amplifier type and silicon revision (CS35L56 B0 in this
+ example) is shown, as read from the amplifier identification registers.
+ * (patched=0) is normal, and indicates that the amplifier has been hard
+ reset and is running default ROM firmware.
+ * (patched=1) means that something has previously downloaded firmware
+ to the amplifier and the driver does not have control of the RESET
+ signal to be able to replace this preloaded firmware. This is normal
+ for systems where the BIOS downloads firmware to the amplifiers
+ before OS boot.
+ This status can also be seen if the cs35l56 kernel module is unloaded
+ and reloaded on a system where the driver does not have control of
+ RESET. SoundWire systems typically do not give the driver control of
+ RESET and only a BIOS (re)boot can reset the amplifiers.

+Error messages
+==============
+This section explains some of the error messages that the driver can log.
+
+Algorithm coefficient version %d.%d.%d but expected %d.%d.%d
+ The version of the .bin file content does not match the loaded firmware.
+ Caused by mismatched .wmfw and .bin file, or .bin file was found but
+ .wmfw was not.
+
+No %s for algorithm %x
+ The version of the .bin file content does not match the loaded firmware.
+ Caused by mismatched .wmfw and .bin file, or .bin file was found but
+ .wmfw was not.
+
+.bin file required but not found
+ HDA driver did not find a .bin file that matches this hardware.
+
+Calibration disabled due to missing firmware controls
+ Driver was not able to write EFI calibration data to firmware registers.
+ This typically means that either:
+
+ * The driver did not find a suitable wmfw for this hardware, or
+ * The amplifier has already been patched with firmware by something
+ previously, and the driver does not have control of a hard RESET line
+ to be able to reset the amplifier and download the firmware files it
+ found. This situation is indicated by the device identification
+ string in the kernel log shows "(patched=1)"
+
+Failed to write calibration
+ Same meaning and cause as "Calibration disabled due to missing firmware
+ controls"
+
+Failed to read calibration data from EFI
+ Factory calibration data in EFI is missing, empty or corrupt.
+ This is most likely to be cause by accidentally deleting the file from
+ the EFI filesystem.
+
+No calibration for silicon ID
+ The factory calibration data in EFI does not match this hardware.
+ The most likely cause is that an amplifier has been replaced on the
+ motherboard without going through manufacturer calibration process to
+ generate calibration data for the new amplifier.
+
+Did not find any buses for CSCxxxx
+ Only on HDA systems. The HDA codec driver found an ACPI entry for
+ Cirrus Logic companion amps, but could not enumerate the ACPI entries for
+ the I2C/SPI buses. The most likely cause of this is that:
+
+ * The relevant bus driver (I2C or SPI) is not part of the kernel.
+ * The HDA codec driver was built-in to the kernel but the I2C/SPI
+ bus driver is a module and so the HDA codec driver cannot call the
+ bus driver functions.
+
+init_completion timed out
+ The SoundWire bus controller (host end) did not enumerate the amplifier.
+ In other words, the ACPI says there is an amplifier but for some reason
+ it was not detected on the bus.
+
+No AF01 node
+ Indicates an error in ACPI. A SoundWire system should have a Device()
+ node named "AF01" but it was not found.
+
+Failed to get spk-id-gpios
+ ACPI says that the driver should request a GPIO but the driver was not
+ able to get that GPIO. The most likely cause is that the kernel does not
+ include the correct GPIO or PINCTRL driver for this system.
+
+Failed to read spk-id
+ ACPI says that the driver should request a GPIO but the driver was not
+ able to read that GPIO.
+
+Unexpected spk-id element count
+ AF01 contains more speaker ID GPIO entries than the driver supports
+
+Overtemp error
+ Amplifier overheat protection was triggered and the amplifier shut down
+ to protect itself.
+
+Amp short error
+ Amplifier detected a short-circuit on the speaker output pins and shut
+ down for protection. This would normally indicate a damaged speaker.
+
+Hibernate wake failed
+ The driver tried to wake the amplifier from its power-saving state but
+ did not see the expected responses from the amplifier. This can be caused
+ by using firmware that does not match the hardware.
