Thanks for reviewing, I will drop this patch. Best regards Wang shengjiu

The problem is that if you have 32-bit samples in your audio file, and you want to play them, then software (e.g. alsalib) will need to convert the audio to 24-bit before sending it to hardware. This is unnecessary because the hardware can "convert" the sample to 24-bit automatically by ignoring the lower 8 bits. I think a lot of codecs do this already.

Re: [alsa-devel] [PATCH] ASoC: cs42xx8: Remove S32_LE in format list
It would be a mistake to remove S32_LE from the format list. If you removed that, then we wouldn't be able to do 32 bit native playback - it would force users to go through an ALSA plugin. If you look at the cs42448 data sheet for example, the I2S and TDM bus uses a 32 bit word size. For that reason, native S32_LE format is handled by the codec. While the codec only uses the 24 MSBs, the I2S bus is 32 bit. Matt On 1/3/19 3:50 pm, Nicolin Chen wrote: Hi Shengjiu, On Thu, Feb 28, 2019 at 05:56:31AM +, S.j.
