In SNDCTL_DSP_SETFRAGMENT, if you specify both read and
write channels, the existing code first acts on the
read channel, but as a side effect it updates the
arguments (maxfrags, fragsz) passed by the caller according
to acceptable values for the read channel, and then uses the
modified values to act on the write channel.
The problem with this approach is that, given a
(maxfrags, fragsz) user-specified value, the actual
values computed by the read and write channels may differ:
e.g. the read channel might want to allocate more fragments
than what the user specified because it has no side-effects
on the delay and it helps in case of slow readers,
whereas the write channel needs to use as few fragments
as possible to keep the audio latency low (very important
with telephony apps).
This patch stores the values computed by the read channel
into temproary variables so the write channel will use
the actual arguments of the ioctl.
This patch is very helpful with telephony apps such as asterisk.

- From luigi:
The code to compute fragment sizes in the ich driver almost
invariably ends up using the full buffer available, no matter
how the user specifies fragment size and number.
With audio telephony (8khz, 16bit-stereo) and the 16k buffer
size this results in an unbearable 500ms delay.
This patch makes sure that we never use more than 4 fragments,
(i don't think we need more unless there are huge interrupt
servicing latencies), and obey to the requested fragment size,
so that latency is acceptable.
Based on this (and after much regression tests), I can conclude
that this driver works best with 2 fragments, thus solving various
long standing issues of ICH driver not capable to flush or play
short files perfectly.

distinct hardware playback channels. DAC configuration can be
accessed through kernel hint - hint.pcm.<unit>.dac="val" with
following possible values:
0 = Enable both DACs (default)
1 = Enable single DAC (DAC1)
2 = Enable single DAC (DAC2)
3 = Enable both DACs, swap position (DAC2 comes first instead
of DAC1)
Special case for ES1370:
Unlike ES1371,2,3/CT5880, volume for each DAC 1 and 2 can be
controlled indepedently (synth for DAC1, pcm for DAC2). It is
possible that user will confuse by this behaviour, since both
DACs are enabled by default. Thus, provide a knob through sysctl
hw.snd.pcm<unit>.single_pcm_mixer:
0 = each DACs will be controlled separately (synth/pcm).
1 = combine both DACs volume mixer controller into a single
"pcm" (default)
As a side note, fixed rate operation (provided by previous
commit) is not a mandatory if the configuration space does not
involve DAC2 (perhaps disabled by user through the above kernel
hint). Unlike DAC2, DAC1 has its own register / control space,
not affected by the speed settings of ADC.

It may be the case that you may hear some unwanted noise while
playing back with 24/32 bit. This is a problem in the USB system.
Explanation from Hans Petter Selasky:
---snip---
The current USB sound driver only uses one isochronous
buffer, that is restarted when it is completed. This will lead to a short
period of time, +1ms, where no sound data is sent to the external USB device.
Depending on the load of your computer, this can be as much as 50ms. So the
USB sound driver must use 2 isochronous transfers. At the beginning one will
queue both. Then these are restarted on completion. This will result in a
constant-rate data stream to the external sound device, a minimum sound
buffer equal to the size of the isochronous buffer, and possibly the sound
will reach your ears with less delay. Little delay is a result of constant
data rate. Currently only my USB driver will support that. If one tries that
with the USB driver in *BSD, then it will crash at the first moment one gets
a buffer underrun.

The reason I'm not putting that along since my first patchset was
because several people especially from amd46 camp reported that it cause

in a pretty much strict locking environment (i386). However, since our
previous discussion with Pyun YongHyeon about strict locking, I've
decided to bring it back for all the affected drivers, not just for
es137x. It turns out that the root of the problem was within dsp.c
during device open, which has been fixed since dsp.c revision 1.84.

Queue insertion/removal occur during

any channel with refcount > 0 or busy).
2) vchan_create()/destroy(), (which is *sigh* quite complicated), but

choice (32/64 bit converter). This is indeed, quite insane, but it
does give us more room and flexibility. Plenty sysctl options to

2. Support 24/32 bit pcm format conversion through new, much improved,

1. buffer.c / dsp.c / sound.h

hw.snd.feeder_rate_buffersize - conversion buffer size

3. feeder_fmt.c / sound.h

5. vchan.c

User can override it using kernel hint:
hint.pcm.<unit>.vchanrate="xxxx".
Notes / Issues:
* Virtual Channels (vchans)
Enabling vchans can really, really help to solve overrun
issues. This is quite understandable, because it operates
entirely within its own buffering system without relying on
hardware interrupt / state. Even if you don't need vchan,
just enable single channel can help much. Few soundcards
(notably via8233x, sblive, possibly others) have their own
hardware multi channel, and this is unfortunately beyond
vchan reachability.
* The arrival of 24/32 also come with a price. Applications
that can do 24/32bit playback need to be recompiled (notably
mplayer). Use (recompiled) mplayer to experiment / test /
debug this various format using -af format=fmt. Note that
24bit seeking in mplayer is a little bit broken, sometimes
can cause silence or loud static noise. Pausing / seeking

You don't have to rebuild world entirely for this. Simply
copy /usr/src/sys/sys/soundcard.h to
/usr/include/sys/soundcard.h would suffice. Few drivers also
need recompilation, and this can be done via
/usr/src/sys/modules/sound/.
Support for 24bit hardware playback is beyond the scope of
this changes. That would require spessific hardware driver
changes.
* Don't expect playing 9999999999hz is a wise decision. Be

attempt. As for testing purposes, you can use (again)
mplayer to generate / play with different sampling rate. Use

* Add kernel hint option to disable DXS channels entirely. Report
from several skype users / Pav Lucistnik indicate that disabling
DXS may fix lots of pop / crackling noise. To disable DXS add
hint.pcm.<unit>.via_dxs_disabled="1" to /boot/device.hints.
Further investigation of the issues regarding DXS showed, that
the problem is in another (more generic) place, but until the
right fix is tested/reviewed this may help a little bit.
Added sysctl's to aid testing/debugging:
hint.pcm.<unit>.via_dxs_disabled=X - Disable / Enable DXS channels entirely
hint.pcm.<unit>.via_dxs_channels=X - Limit DXS channels up to X
hint.pcm.<unit>.via_sgd_channels=X - Limit SGD channels up to X
hint.pcm.<unit>.via_dxs_src=X - Enable / Disable DXS sample rate

es137x can really do spdif, clean it up a bit to only let few capable

a more generic way of handling this from userland (by an ordinary

* Convert all bus_space_(read|write) to use es_rd/es_wr, simmilar

* Add tunable hw.snd.pcm<unit>.latency_timer sysctl to toggle pci
latency timer value on the fly. Much noise / pop / crackling
issues can be solved by increasing its value. Other people have
pointed out to use pciconf instead, but this is just an added
value specific for CT4730/EV1938.

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

feedbacks during the driver writing. His feedback made it possible
to write hiccup free playback code under high system loads.

allocation. Notably, in this case, the driver tries to allocate several
pieces of memory and then fails if the pieces allocated after the first
do not come after it physically, and within a specific range (8MB I
believe). Of course, this could just as easily fail for any number of
reasons, but it almost always fails now that contiguous allocations start
at the end of possible specified memory locations rather than the beginning.
Allocate all the possibly-needed memory up front, even though it's a waste,
to get around this. The least bogus solution would be to take the physical
address from the first allocation and create a new tag that specified that
further allocations must follow it within that 8MB window, then use that
when allocating new channels, but that's left for anyone else that really
feels like doing it.
