VAR-SOM-MX6 Digital Mic
Latest kernel 4.9 includes changes allowing to setup DMIC at runtime using alsamixer/amixer: to enable DMIC, simply set a valid oversampling rate ("128x", "64x", "32x"), or leave it "off" to use LINE_IN.

DMIC activation for older kernel versions

To get the digital microphone working, apply the following patch to the Linux kernel:

To test the digital mic. and record to a wav file, run the following command after applying the above patch:

# arecord –f cd test.wav
