✨ NAME ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

       void set_link_hw_format (struct snd_soc_dai_link *link , struct
       snd_soc_tplg_link_config *cfg );

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• link — the snd_soc_dai_link that should be updated. This is the main-character link getting its update, no cap 🎀
• cfg — physical link configs. Yep, that's the config package right there 🦋

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so picture this: the topology context contains a list of supported HW formats (configs) and a default format ID for the physical link. This function will use this default ID to choose the HW format to set the link's DAI format for init. That's literally the whole vibe 💖
