If the state of the firmware is not BOOT_COMPLETE, it means that the firmware is not functioning, thus it is not capable of handling IPC messages. Do not try to send IPC if the state is not BOOT_COMPLETE Signed-off-by: Peter Ujfalusi <peter.ujfalusi@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Pierre-Louis Bossart <pierre-louis.bossart@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Bard Liao <yung-chuan.liao@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Ranjani Sridharan <ranjani.sridharan@linux.intel.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20211223113628.18582-12-peter.ujfalusi@linux.intel.com Signed-off-by: Mark Brown <broonie@kernel.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
