v2 cover ASoC: mediatek: Handle constraint return value in FE startup

From: bui duc phuc <[email protected]>

Hi all,

Some FE startup callbacks may return a positive value from constraint helpers, but ASoC expects 0 on success. This can cause .shutdown() to be skipped during rollback.

Return 0 explicitly on success.

Compile-tested only.

Changes in v2:
- Rename the patch subject.
- Simplify the code change as suggested by Cezary.

Best regards,
Phuc

PATCH v2 1/4 ASoC: mediatek: common: Handle constraint return value in FE startup

From: bui duc phuc <[email protected]>

snd_pcm_hw_constraint_integer() may return 1, which is then returned from mtk_afe_fe_startup(). ASoC only treats 0 as success when marking the DAI as started, so .shutdown() can be skipped on rollback.

Return 0 explicitly on success.

Thank you for the update. The snd_pcm_hw_constraint_xxx() finding is a good catch.

Hi Cezary.

Thank you for the review.

I actually found this issue thanks to Mark's review in another thread, where he pointed out a subtle issue with the return value.

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark
