4a Only hal listed in the json file should be loaded and activated

Won't Fix

Description

The HAL to be used listed in the json file 
/usr/agl-service-audio-4a/ahl-agl-service-audio-4a-config.json

BUT all hal present in the 4a hal directory are loaded
/usr/agl-service-audio-4a/ahl-agl-service-audio-4a-config.json

This creates :

 - systematic error in some cases (e.g. some intel config)
 - slow down the boot process
 - can induce errors on non tested, non needed configurations

 

4a should only load the hal which are listed in the json file.

Is there a specific bug open for Vayu support? If not, it would be good to create one. This is not in the topic of this current issue and BTW I think this issue should be closed as what is described doesn't apply to current 4A version AFAICS.

or in our team can provide "blind support" to help in writing a HAL for Vayu but we can't write nor test the HAL as we don't have any Vayu board at hand.

Documentation on how to write a HAL is available in the sources:

https://git.automotivelinux.org/src/4a-hal-generic/tree/README.md

but this file doesn't seem to be referenced on docs.automotivelinux.org . We'll add it somewhere in the 4a audio section.

Hi , 

We need to create a HAL config file for the vayu using the hal configs for other boards as a reference. Refer https://git.automotivelinux.org/src/4a-hal-configs
