Context

Several handhelds (AyaNeo Flip KB/DS, AIR 1S, AIR Plus, Kun; Ayn Loki MiniPro; Orange Pi NEO-01) use the Awinic AW87XXX Smart K PA as their speaker amplifier, identified over ACPI as AWDZ8830. Mainline Linux has no driver for this chip — the closest match (aw87390.c) doesn't recognize it. Without this driver these devices have no speaker output at all.

This driver was lost when Bazzite's kernel source switched to OGC, unrelated to the driver itself. Ported here referencing ChimeraOS's kernel, which carries the same driver. See ublue-os/bazzite#5374 for the resulting regression report (AyaNeo AIR 1S, no audio since the kernel switch).

Changes

  • First commit: the original driver + DMI-based firmware filename selection, ported from hhd-dev/patchwork with attribution preserved.
  • Second commit: drop a dead linux/of_gpio.h include (header no longer exists in this tree) so it builds on current kernels.

Testing

Built out-of-tree against this branch's exact source (kernel-devel 7.2.0-ogc4.1) and verified on real AyaNeo Flip KB hardware — chip probes correctly (chip_id 0x5a, product aw87559), and speaker audio works, including after a fresh reboot.

…re selection

Adds the Awinic AW87XXX Smart K PA codec driver, ported from
hhd-dev/patchwork. This chip is used as the speaker amplifier on
several handhelds (AyaNeo Flip KB/DS, AIR 1S, AIR Plus, Kun; Ayn
Loki MiniPro; Orange Pi NEO-01 per the DMI match table below),
none of which currently have audio output without this driver.
Verified on AyaNeo Flip KB.

Includes DMI-based firmware filename selection so multiple devices'
firmware blobs can coexist under /lib/firmware without collision.

linux/of_gpio.h has been removed from the tree. None of these
files actually use anything from it (no of_gpio_* calls), so drop
the dead include to fix the build.

Companion PR enabling this in the build config: OpenGamingCollective/kernel-packages#36CONFIG_SND_SOC_AW87XXX isn't on by default, so without that PR this driver is present but never actually built.

Are we planning to upstream this, or rework it before hand? Authorship makes it somewhat of a challenge.
@BoukeHaarsma23 I would love your input here.

KyleGospo pushed a commit to OpenGamingCollective/kernel-packages that referenced this pull request Aug 25, 2026
CONFIG_SND_SOC_AW87XXX is added by OpenGamingCollective/linux#102.
Enable it as a module so it's actually built.

For the AYANEO Air 1S another quirk in the ALC269 codec is necessary to fix audio output. I commented on the initial bug report in ublue-os/bazzite: ublue-os/bazzite#5374 (comment)

@hijae Do you want to include a fix for that in this PR as well or should this be done via a separate PR?

Working patch to fix audio output on the AYANEO Air 1S

I went back and forth with an LLM to write this, but I am neither a kernel contributor nor am I experienced in C. I understand the code, but I do not understand why 0x90170110 results in the correct pinout. It seems to be some conventional value that is used in other fixes for the realtek codec across the tree to indicate what an internal speaker is.

This fix is should even be safer than the upstream one as we are only targeting the Air 1S specifically.

I can include it if you'd like. However, I don't have an Air 1s device and can't test it, so I recommend that you create a separate PR yourself.
Also, I'm not sure if my PR will be accepted because of the authorship issue.

We'll most likely carry this patch as it is needed for many devices. The authorship issue is administrative. I asked bl1nk to see if you could cherry-pick that patch as well. It will depend on these being merged so it makes it simpler to include.
