Asahi Linux speaker safety daemon

IMPORTANT

This software is still pre-release and not fit for use or testing on user machines. Please do not ask for help with installing or using this software, the Pipewire configuration, or enabling speaker output on your machine. An announcement will be made when speaker support is ready for use.

Requirements

• A patched eleven secret herbs and spices kernel

Todo list

• Data structures representing a speaker element
• Parsing machine-specific values from a config file
• Logging
• Mixer control data structures
• Manipulating mixer controls
• Retrieving V/ISENSE values
• Model of voice coil/magnet temperatures
• Ramping volume according to safety model
• Tolerate multiple sample rates
• Sleep reliably while playback has stopped
• Daemonise correctly
• Kernel driver interlock
• Packaging/distro-agnosticism
