+* Qualcomm Technologies APQ8096 ASoC sound card driver
+
+This binding describes the APQ8096 sound card, which uses qdsp for audio.
+
+- compatible:
+	Usage: required
+	Value type: <stringlist>
+	Definition: must be "qcom,apq8096-sndcard"
+
+- qcom,audio-routing:
+	Usage: Optional
+	Value type: <stringlist>
+	Definition:  A list of the connections between audio components.
+		  Each entry is a pair of strings, the first being the
+		  connection's sink, the second being the connection's
+		  source. Valid names could be power supplies, MicBias
+		  of codec and the jacks on the board:
+		  Valid names include:
+
+		Board Connectors:
+			"Headphone Left"
+			"Headphone Right"
+			"Earphone"
+			"Line Out1"
+			"Line Out2"
+			"Line Out3"
+			"Line Out4"
+			"Analog Mic1"
+			"Analog Mic2"
+			"Analog Mic3"
+			"Analog Mic4"
+			"Analog Mic5"
+			"Analog Mic6"
+			"Digital Mic2"
+			"Digital Mic3"
+
+		Audio pins and MicBias on WCD9335 Codec:
+			"MIC_BIAS1
+			"MIC_BIAS2"
+			"MIC_BIAS3"
+			"MIC_BIAS4"
+			"AMIC1"
+			"AMIC2"
+			"AMIC3"
+			"AMIC4"
+			"AMIC5"
+			"AMIC6"
+			"AMIC6"
+			"DMIC1"
+			"DMIC2"
+			"DMIC3"
+= dailinks
+Each subnode of sndcard represents either a dailink, and subnodes of each
+dailinks would be cpu/codec/platform dais.
+
+- link-name:
+	Usage: required
+	Value type: <string>
+	Definition: User friendly name for dai link
+
+= CPU, PLATFORM, CODEC dais subnodes
+- cpu:
+	Usage: required
+	Value type: <subnode>
+	Definition: cpu dai sub-node
+
+- codec:
+	Usage: Optional
+	Value type: <subnode>
+	Definition: codec dai sub-node
+
+- platform:
+	Usage: Optional
+	Value type: <subnode>
+	Definition: platform dai sub-node
+
+- sound-dai:
+	Usage: required
+	Value type: <phandle with arguments>
+	Definition: dai phandle/s and port of CPU/CODEC/PLATFORM node.
+
+Example:
+
+audio {
+	compatible = "qcom,apq8096-sndcard";
+	qcom,model = "DB820c";
+
+	mm1-dai-link {
+		link-name = "MultiMedia1";
+		cpu {
+			sound-dai = <&q6asmdai MSM_FRONTEND_DAI_MULTIMEDIA1>;
+		};
+	};
+
+	hdmi-dai-link {
+		link-name = "HDMI Playback";
+		cpu {
+			sound-dai = <&q6afe HDMI_RX>;
+		};
+
+		platform {
+			sound-dai = <&q6adm>;
+		};
+
+		codec {
+			sound-dai = <&hdmi 0>;
+		};
+	};
