Thanks for review, I will update patch in next version.

Like Nicolin says you should continue to support the old stuff.  The
kernel should work with people's out of tree DTs too so simply updating
everything in the tree isn't enough.

You probably should add one beside the old one. And all
the existing drivers would have to continue to support
"fsl,asrc-width", even if they start to support the new
"fsl,asrc-format". The ground rule here is that a newer
kernel should be able to work with an old DTB, IIRC.

One more concern here is about the format value. Though
I don't think those values, defined in asound.h, would
be changed, yet I am not sure if it's legit to align DT
bindings to a subsystem header file -- I only know that
usually we keep shared macros under include/dt-bindings
folder. I won't have any problem, if either Rob or Mark
has no objection.

I have updated all the things related with this ABI in this patch series.
What else should I do?

You can't just change properties. They are an ABI.

[PATCH v4 1/8] ASoC: dt-bindings: fsl_asrc: Change asrc-width to asrc-format

2020-02-29 Thread Shengjiu Wang
asrc_format is more inteligent, which is align with the alsa
definition snd_pcm_format_t, we don't need to convert it to
format in driver, and it can distinguish S24_LE & S24_3LE.
