From: Takashi Iwai Date: Wed, 6 Aug 2025 19:25:37 +0000 (+0200) Subject: ALSA: hda/realtek: Restrict prompt only for CONFIG_EXPERT X-Git-Tag: v6.17-rc1~17^2~2 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6bd05db76751c872970c63be41c97172cfbec4c1;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git ALSA: hda/realtek: Restrict prompt only for CONFIG_EXPERT The split of Realtek HD-audio codec driver may cause confusions especially when migrating from the previous kernel configurations because it's hard to know which driver to be enabled. Although we've already set default=y for those codec drivers, it may still make people changing the stuff unnecessarily without knowing its side effect. This patch is for avoiding such pitfalls by marking the prompt of each Realtek codec driver with CONFIG_EXPERT. For "normal" users (that is, unless CONFIG_EXPERT is set), all Realtek HD-audio codecs are enabled together with CONFIG_SND_HDA_CODEC_REALTEK; this is the very same situation like the previous kernels, after all. For users who really care about the minimalistic configuration, they can turn each driver on/off individually after setting CONFIG_EXPERT=y. The patch also adds the missing help text to the top-level CONFIG_SND_HDA_CODEC_REALTEK together with the explanation of individual choices, too.
