ALSA driver configuration. Is there any documentation, AT ALL?

I am looking for a comprehensive documentation about the alsa.conf file that is used to configure the behavior of ALSA driver in Linux.

After exploring both the website of the ALSA project and the unofficial wiki, I can't really find at all a list of all the options that can be used in the file.

For instance, I see in the forums many people suggest this setting:options snd-hda with a bunch of options appended to it, such as some related to the keyword dmic.

Now, I am not asking in here what dmic is. I am asking, is there at all a document explaning this? I did not find any.
