FEATURE REQUEST

There is no SDK for the Kendryte K210 APU Audio Processing Unit

Justification

The datasheet for the Kendryte K210 lists the features that are selling points for the chip for AI, and the APU is very clearly listed as one of them, yet there is absolutely no way to access it on the user side, making it basically useless.

For people wanting to work more with audio, this is a pretty bad omission.

Workarounds

There is no way to access the APU via the SDK, so there is nothing I can do to fix it (since the Kendryte documentation is completely useless as it provides zero useful detail for a programmer to use, i.e. registers and timing/dataflow information).
