sound cards with optional pseudo-multichannel playback.
It's based on snd_emu10k1 sound driver. Single channel version is available
from audio/emu10kx port since some time.
The two new ALSA header files (GPLed), which contain Audigy 2 ("p16v") and
Audigy 2 Value ("p17v") specific interfaces, are latest versions from ALSA
Mercurial repository.
This is not connected to the build yet.

I got no response from the author, but since the driver is BSD licensed
I don't think he will complain. :-)

but large parts are rewritten by matk and tanimura.
This is old code, it's not maintained since 2003. We also don't have a
maintainer for this! Yuriy Tsibizov took it and uses it in his emu10kx
driver. Since the emu10kx driver will enter the tree "soon" (some bugs
have to be fixed after Yuriy return from his holidays), I add it here
already.
This also contains some changes to emu10k1 and cmi, so if you're lucky,
you can now make some kind of use of midi with those soundcards.
To all those poor souls which don't have such a card: feel free to send
patches, we don't have a maintainer for this.
To those which miss a specific feature in the midi code: feel free to
submit patches, we don't have a maintainer for this.
Oh, did I already told that it would be nice if someone would take care
of it? Maintainer with midi equipment wanted! :-)
If you get LOR's, submit a PR and notify multimedia@ please. If you get
panics, submit a PR with a backtrace (compile the sound system into your
kernel instead of using modules in this case) and notify multimedia@
please.

Based upon: code from NetBSD
after sys/dev/sound/pcm/channel.c rev. 1.99, i.e. when there's no
existing KERNBUILDDIR with an opt_isa.h defined.
- Sync with sys/dev/sound/pcm/channel.c rev. 1.99 (sort of), i.e.
never compile in isadma support on sparc64 as we just never need
it there. This allows to use the "generic" module with a custom
kernel that is built without isa(4).

on UltraSPARC workstations. The driver is based on OpenBSD's SBus
cs4231 driver and heavily modified to incorporate into sound(4)
infrastructure. Due to the lack of APCDMA documentation, the DMA
code of SBus cs4231 came from OpenBSD's driver.
The driver runs without Giant lock and supports both SBus and EBus
based CS4231 audio controller. Special thanks to marius for providing
feedbacks during the driver writing. His feedback made it possible
to write hiccup free playback code under high system loads.

- `sound'
The generic sound driver, always required.
- `snd_*'
Device-dependent drivers, named after the sound module names.
Configure accordingly to your hardware.
In addition, rename the `snd_pcm' module to `sound' in order to sync
with the driver names.

I started with a year-old patch by Orlando Bassotto
<orlando.bassotto@ieo-research.it>, and ported it to 5.2-CURRENT along with
fixing the problems working with pre-Audigy cards.
This driver actually works slightly better on -stable than on -current
(the system locks on detach on -current), so it should be MFC'd somewhat
sooner.
This driver currently points out a difficulty in the sound device framework.
The PCM unregister routine is allowed to refuse the detach if the device is
in use. In the case of a USB device, however, this unregistration is much more
mandatory in nature, since the device is *actually* gone when this call is
made. The sound subsystem really should not refuse an unregistration and
should take its own steps to reject further I/O. As a result, if you detach
a USB sound device while it is in use, you can expect a panic shortly
thereafter.
This device cannot currently record audio. Some routines are unwritten as
of yet in uaudio.c to support recording.
This device hangs my -current box on detach. I don't know why. This does
not happen on my -stable machine.

the main benefit this gives for now is that via686 audio devices on
motherboards with ac97 codecs that do not support vra will be able to use
sample rates other than 48khz.
this gives us several benefits, including:
* easier extensibility- new optional methods can be added to
ac97/mixer/channel classes without having to fixup every driver.
* forward compatibility for drivers, provided no new mandatory methods are
added.
