| - | ==== Proposal: Enhance SOF Linux kernel debugging support for i.MX8 platforms ==== | + | ==== Proposal 1: Add dynamic load module support for SOF ==== |
| - | Sound Open Firmware has multiple components but in order to understand the proposal one needs to firstly have a look at these two components: | + | Github issues: |
| - | * SOF Linux kernel driver, this runs on the ARM core and it's the link between ALSA kernel layer and DSP. | + | * https://github.com/thesofproject/sof/pull/1619 |
| - | * SOF firmware, this runs on the DSP and it is responsible for audio processing, etc. | + | * https://github.com/thesofproject/sof/pull/3766#issuecomment-776756378 |
| - | The goal of this project is to enahance the Linux kernel driver debugging support. This includes: | + | Code license: GPL-2.0 OR BSD-3-Clause |
| - | * add functionality to retrieve DSP traces when DSP panics. | + | |
| - | * add functionality to filter logs from DSP based on various parameters. | + | |
| - | * enhance and update documentation | + | |
| - | * add a serial console driver on DSP (this is optional) | + | |
| - | Github issues: | + | The project is considered successful if the code is accepted into SOF github tree. |

| + | ==== Proposal 2: Add support for converting topology binaries generated with TPLG1.0 into TPLG2.0 conf format ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | The goal is to be able to decode existing topology binaries and convert them into the new Topology 2.0 conf format | ||
| + | |||
| + | Code license: GPL-2.0 OR BSD-3-Clause | ||

| + | The project is considered successful if the code is accepted into SOF github tree. | ||

| + | |||
| + | ==== Proposal 3: Loopback implementation using demux component ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | The general idea would be to have an ALSA device where playback stream would be looped back into a capture stream. This can be useful for echo reference or for audio decoding libraries that could offload the decoding part to the DSP. | ||

| + | ==== Proposal 4: Enhance SOF testbench with Linux kernel topology parser ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | Reuse sound/soc/sof/* and re-write the testbench to use ASoC topology parser. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Code license: GPL-2.0 OR BSD-3-Clause | ||
| + | |||
| + | The project is considered successful if the code is accepted into SOF github tree. | ||

| + | |||
| + | ==== Proposal 5: Add mutiple stream suppport to testbench ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | Add to testbench support for multiple streams (with multiple files I/O PCM, DAI). | ||
| + | |||
| + | Code license: GPL-2.0 OR BSD-3-Clause | ||
| + | |||
| + | The project is considered successful if the code is accepted into SOF github tree. | ||

| + | |||
| + | ==== Proposal 6: Add mux/demux testing functionality to testbench ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | Add support for testing the mux/demux component in testbench. | ||
