okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ you're literally about to learn how to turn on audio for HD audio and honestly? it's giving main character energy 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

intel_audio_codec_enable — enable the audio codec for HD audio 🔊✨

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void intel_audio_codec_enable (struct intel_encoder *encoder , const
       struct intel_crtc_state *crtc_state , const struct drm_connector_state
       *conn_state );

no cap, that's the whole signature 💅

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• encoder — the encoder you're gonna enable audio on 🫶 this is the one doing the work
• crtc_state — pointer to the current crtc state, iykyk 📺
• conn_state — pointer to the current connector state, the vibe check for your connector 🔌

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

okay so this is important, listen up 👑 — the enable sequences may only be performed:

• after enabling the transcoder and port, and
• after completed link training ✅

bestie do NOT try to run the enable sequences before those two things happen. that's the whole rule. 🤨
