I understand the need of naming each component variant so they can be distinguished in the future, but in this case it's the exact same hw. >> - nvidia,model = "Acer Chromebook 13"; >> + nvidia,model = "GoogleNyan"; > > > I believe this also technically breaks ABI, since some user-space tools use > the model to look up saved state.

Given that there's no users yet, I would prefer to take this chance to put a sane value in there. Btw, alsa-lib has now a UCM config for this and it uses the GoogleNyan card id (has been picked up already by OpenSUSE). So in this case, I think it would be good to change the card id now before people start to actually use it.

That's not true. These are two different boards that are derived from the same base design. The intent may be that they are the same, but the whole point of board-specific compatible values is to cover the case where mistakes and exceptions appear later. >>> - nvidia,model = "Acer Chromebook 13"; >>> + nvidia,model = "GoogleNyan"; >> >> >> I believe this also technically breaks ABI, since some user-space tools use >> the model to look up saved state.

Perhaps that was a shorthand for "Acer Chromebook 13". Yes, I agree we should use the user-visible model number here; "Acer CB5" or perhaps "Acer CB5-xxx" whatever xxx actually is. > So in this case, I think it would be good to change the card id now > before people start to actually use it. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-tegra" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

Ok, so we can go with Acer-CB5-311 for the nyan big. Unfortunately there doesn't exist a single product id that corresponds with the nyan blaze, but at least four: K4K83UA, K4K11UA, K4K78UA and K4K23UA. The commercial name of the series that contain a blaze board is "HP Chromebook 14 G3", but that doesn't fit in the card id field (16 byte). What do you think of using GoogleNyanBig and GoogleNyanBlaze? Or maybe just NyanBig and NyanBlaze? IMO it's more important that the card ids correspond 1-to-1 to the hw than their recognizability, as it's not something that end users will be messing with.

Oh, the 16-byte limit is rather annoying:-( Some of our existing DT files don't fit into that limit. > What do you think of using GoogleNyanBig and GoogleNyanBlaze?

I'm not entirely sure that the user won't ever see those values; don't some X11 GUI tools display them? Still, as you say there isn't too much we can do, so since these names are unique/complete I figure they're OK. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-tegra" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

Patches are on its way to add a config file to alsaucm for the Nyan boards. Use the same card ID that alsaucm will expect. Signed-off-by: Tomeu Vizoso <tomeu.vizoso@collabora.com> --- arch/arm/boot/dts/tegra124-nyan-big.dts | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-)
