My codec is generating the clocks and the MX6 is in slave mode.  PCLK
(I assume that's the bit clock or BCLK in my workld) is 12.288MHz, and
the FSYNC is 48kHz.  16 channels/frame, 16 bits/channel.

I hardly changed the SSI driver at all.  It's goofy now for sure
because I force it to 16 slots/frame no matter what, so beware.  Other
than that, I also set the STCCR for 16 channels and set channels_max
to 16.

There are other changes I've tried, including watermark changes (check
out the alsa-dev archives on this thread for what I did before).  This
morning I am about to try the watermark changes suggested by Nicolin
Chen.

> Did you have your own DMA handling?

Nope, I don't really know how to do that.  I'm relying on the built in
sdma driver (drivers/dma/imx-sdma.c) + fsl pcm
(sound/soc/fsl/imx-pcm-dma.c) and my modified fsl_ssi.c driver.

Yes! I meant BCLK.

Ok! In my case it's BCLK at 2048KHz and FSYNC 8KHz, 8 slots at 8bits

In case you need to increase the SSI clock, have a look at CLK_SSI1_PODF within arch/arm/mach-imx/clk-imx6*.c
depending by your SoC, in this file you can change the max clock rate supported by the given SSI clock.

Have you tried to set the SSI in I2S_MODE_SLAVE BTW?
