      sound: virtuoso: revert "do not overwrite EEPROM on Xonar D2/D2X" · 6ce6c473
      Clemens Ladisch 提交于
      This reverts commit 7e86c0e6 ("do not
      overwrite EEPROM on Xonar D2/D2X") because it did not actually help with
      the problem.
      
      More user reports show that the overwriting of the EEPROM is not
      triggered by using this driver but by installing Linux, and that the
      installation of any other operating system (even one without any CMI8788
      driver) has the same effect.  In other words, the presence of this
      driver does not have any effect on the occurrence of the error.  (So
      far, the available evidence seems to point to a BIOS bug.)
      
      Furthermore, it turns out that the EEPROM chip is protected against
      stray write commands by the command format and by requiring a separate
      write-enable command, so the error scenario in the previous commit (that
      SPI writes can be misinterpreted as an EEPROM write command) is not even
      theoretically possible.
      
      The mixer control that was removed as a consequence of the previous
      commit can only be partially emulated in userspace, which also means it
      cannot be seen be the in-kernel OSS API emulation, so it is better to
      revert that change.

      On the Asus Xonar D2 and D2X models, the SPI chip select signal for the
      fourth DAC shares its pin with the serial clock for the EEPROM that
      contains the PCI subdevice ID values.  It appears that when DAC
      registers are written and some other unknown conditions occur (probably
      noise on the EEPROM's chip select line), the EEPROM gets overwritten
      with garbage, which makes it impossible to properly detect the card
      later.
      
      Therefore, we better avoid DAC register writes and make sure that the
      driver works with the DAC's registers' default values.  Consequently,
      the sample format is now I2S instead of left-justified (no user-visible
      change), and the DAC's volume/mute registers cannot be used anymore
      (volume changes are now done by the software volume plugin).
