Specialized mixer initialization for STAC9221, much like STAC9220.

New features:
1. Optional multichannel recording (32 channels on Live!, 64 channels
on Audigy).
All channels are 16bit/48000Hz/mono, format is fixed.
Half of them are copied from sound output, another half can be
used to record any data from DSP. What should be recorded is
hardcoded in DSP code. In this version it records dummy data, but
can be used to record all DSP inputs, for example..
Because there are no support of more-than-stereo sound streams
multichannell stream is presented as one 32(64)*48000 Hz 16bit mono
stream.

Fixes:
1. Do not assign negative values to variables used to index emu_cards
array. This array was never accessed when index is negative, but
Alexander (netchild@) told me that Coverity does not like it.
After this change emu_cards[0] should never be used to identify
valid sound card.
2. Fix off-by-one errors in interrupt manager. Add more checks there.
3. Fixes to sound buffering code now allows driver to use large playback
buffers.
4. Fix memory allocation bug when multichannel recording is not
enabled.
5. Fix interrupt timeout when recording with low bitrate (8kHz).
Hardware:
1. Add one more known Audigy ZS card to list. Add two cards with
PCI IDs betwen old known cards and new one.
Other changes:
1. Do not use ALL CAPS in messages.
Incomplete code:
1. Automute S/PDIF when S/PDIF signal is lost.
Tested on i386 only, gcc 3.4.6 & gcc41/gcc42 (syntax only).

This commits enables a little bit of debugging output when the driver is
loaded as a module. I did a cross-build test for amd64.
The code has some style issues, this will be addressed later.
The multichannel recording part is some work in progress to allow playing
around with it until the generic sound code is better able to handle
multichannel streams.

in every sense.
General
-------
- Multichannel safe, endian safe, format safe
* Large part of critical pcm filters such as vchan.c, feeder_rate.c,
feeder_volume.c, feeder_fmt.c and feeder.c has been rewritten so that
using them does not cause the pcm data to be converted to 16bit little
endian.
* Macrosses for accessing pcm data safely are defined within sound.h in
the form of PCM_READ_* / PCM_WRITE_*
* Currently, most of them are probably limited for mono/stereo handling,
but the future addition of true multichannel will be much easier.
- Low latency operation
* Well, this require lot more works to do not just within sound driver,
but we're heading towards right direction. Buffer/block sizing within
channel.c is rewritten to calculate precise allocation for various
combination of sample/data/rate size. As a result, applying correct
SNDCTL_DSP_POLICY value will achive expected latency behaviour simmilar
to what commercial 4front driver do.
* Signal handling fix. ctrl+c of "cat /dev/zero > /dev/dsp" does not
result long delay.
* Eliminate sound truncation if the sound data is too small.
DIY:
1) Download / extract
http://people.freebsd.org/~ariff/lowlatency/shortfiles.tar.gz
2) Do a comparison between "cat state*.au > /dev/dsp" and
"for x in state*.au ; do cat $x > /dev/dsp ; done"
- there should be no "perceivable" differences.
Double close for PR kern/31445.
CAVEAT: Low latency come with (unbearable) price especially for poorly
written applications. Applications that trying to act smarter
by requesting (wrong) blocksize/blockcount will suffer the most.

- Switch minimum/maximum sampling rate limit to "1" and "2016000" (48k * 42)
due to closer compatibility with 4front driver.
Discussed with: marcus@ (long time ago?)
- All driver specific sysctls in the form of "hw.snd.pcm%d.*" have been
moved to their own dev sysctl nodes, notably:
hw.snd.pcm%d.vchans -> dev.pcm.%d.vchans
Bump __FreeBSD_version.
Driver specific
---------------
- Ditto for sysctls.
- snd_atiixp, snd_es137x, snd_via8233, snd_hda
* Numerous cleanups and fixes.
* _EXPERIMENTAL_ polling mode support using simple callout_* mechanisme.
This was intended for pure debugging and latency measurement, but proven
good enough in few unexpected and rare cases (such as problematic shared
IRQ with GIANT devices - USB). Polling can be enabled/disabled through
dev.pcm.0.polling. Disabled by default.
- snd_ich
* Fix possible overflow during speed calibration. Delay final
initialization (pcm_setstatus) after calibration finished.

those at #freebsd-azalia @ freenode and others for testing.
Joel Dahl will do the manpage update.
- Add support for the Conexant Waikiki/CX20551-22, found
in most Toshiba P100 series laptops. Despite of growing
urban legend of "unsupported Conexant", this codec is fully
supported in this driver.
Note: Toshiba P100 has broken (acpi) BIOS, thus rendering
its soundchip useless. Please disable ACPI, or get
BIOS updates (if any).

- Parser cleanups to handle possible oss/mixer collision. Found
after parsing Conexant Waikiki nodes.
- Increase resilient against resource failure during attach/detach.
- Implement simple config through hint.pcm.<unit>.config. Supported
options:
gpio0 (default on Acer), gpio1, gpio2, softpcmvol,
fixedrate (default), forcestereo (default)
* Option prefixed with "no" (such as "nofixedrate") will do
the opposite.
* Options can be separated using space " " or comma ",".
* The "no" option will take precedence over anything else.
Example:
hint.pcm.0.config="gpio2,nofixedrate,noforcestereo,nogpio0,softpcmvol"
hint.pcm.0.config="softpcmvol noforcestereo"
- Fix support for ASUS M5200ae (buggy BIOS)

is interaction between in-kernel sound buffer handling and hardware.
With small buffer, there are times when both harwdare reads and
kernel writes to the same buffer (it is only visible on slow machines, i
think). I'm digging in channel.c and buffer.c to find a solution that
allow use of large hardware buffers without sound lags - hardware can
handle buffers up to 32Mb."

- fix "No sound in KDE":
The problem is related to the implementation of Envy24(1712) hardware
mixer support in the driver. Envy24(1712) has very precise 36bit wide
hardware mixer, which is superior that vchans (software sound mixer in
the kernel). The driver supports Envy24(1712) hardware mixer, so up to
10 channels (5 stereo pairs) can be playback simultaneously.
However, there are problems with the implementation of Envy24(1712)
hardware mixer support in the driver, one of them is the problem with
"no sound in KDE":
When playing back several channels simultaneously and
stoping one of the channels, sound starts to stutter and
plays at very low speed.
Another problem is:
Playing back simultaneously more than one 24bit/32bit
sound file or 16bit sound file and 24bit/32bit sound
file doesn't work as expected.

for confirmation. So far it at least fixes the build and should only
lead to not identifying or wrongly identifying a soundcard in the worst
case.
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. :-)

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@
