1. Support wide range sampling rate, as low as 1hz up to int32 max
(which is, insane) through new feeder_rate, multiple precisions
choice (32/64 bit converter). This is indeed, quite insane, but it
does give us more room and flexibility. Plenty sysctl options to
adjust resampling characteristics.
2. Support 24/32 bit pcm format conversion through new, much improved,
simplified and optimized feeder_fmt.
Changes:
1. buffer.c / dsp.c / sound.h
* Support for 24/32 AFMT.
2. feeder_rate.c
* New implementation of sampling rate conversion with 32/64 bit
precision, 1 - int32max hz (which is, ridiculous, yet very
addictive). Much improved / smarter buffer management to not
cause any missing samples at the end of conversion process
* Tunable sysctls for various aspect:
hw.snd.feeder_rate_ratemin - minimum allowable sampling rate
(default to 4000)
hw.snd.feeder_rate_ratemax - maximum allowable sampling rate
(default to 1102500)
hw.snd.feeder_rate_buffersize - conversion buffer size
(default to 8192)
hw.snd.feeder_rate_scaling - scaling / conversion method
(please refer to the source for explaination). Default to
previous implementation type.
3. feeder_fmt.c / sound.h
* New implementation, support for 24/32bit conversion, optimized,
and simplified. Few routines has been removed (8 to xlaw, 16 to
8). It just doesn't make sense.
4. channel.c
* Support for 24/32 AFMT
* Fix wrong xruns increment, causing incorrect underruns statistic
while using vchans.
5. vchan.c
* Support for 24/32 AFMT
* Proper speed / rate detection especially for fixed rate ac97.
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
few times can solve this problem.
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
reasonable. The new feeder_rate implemention provide
flexibility, not insanity. You can easily chew up your CPU
with this kind of mind instability. Please use proper
mosquito repellent device for this obvious cracked brain
attempt. As for testing purposes, you can use (again)
mplayer to generate / play with different sampling rate. Use
something like "mplayer -af resample=192000:0:0 <files>".

2) 24bit data, packed within 32bit (4bytes) boundary where the data
is stored in the 24 most significant bits and least significant 8

While this might hold true in few cases, lots of applications (notably
mplayer, sweep) really deal / produce 24bit as what they should meant

kenv environment in kern_environment.c switches to dynamic kenv. The prior
call sets the static variable hintp to the static hints in subr_hints.c
(hintmode==0).
However, changes to the environment are not detected by the resource_xxx
lookups after the change to dynamic kernel environment, so the lookup
routines only report the old stuff of hintmode==0, even after the change to
the dynamic kenv. This causes kenv users to see a different environment than
the kernel routines.
This is a problem in the mixer.c code that looks up initial mixer volume
settings from the hints: If the hints are dynamic and not from the
device.hints file, mixer.c doesn't see them, but kenv does.
The patch from the PR (modified to comply to the style of the function)

previous to this commit).
This is based upon the PR [1] mentioned below, but extended to check both
bounds (in case of an overflow of the counting variable) and to comply
to the style of the function. An overflow of the counting variable
shouldn't happen after adding the check for the upper bound, but better
safe than sorry (in case some other function in the kernel overwrites
random memory).
An interested soul may want to add a printf to notify root in case the
bounds are hit.

- similarly, most of the kernel code will not care about link-local
scoped addresses as a special case.
- scope boundary check will be stricter. For example, the current
*BSD code allows a packet with src=::1 and dst=(some global IPv6
address) to be sent outside of the node, if the application do:
s = socket(AF_INET6);
bind(s, "::1");

This is clearly wrong, since ::1 is only meaningful within a single
node, but the current implementation of the *BSD kernel cannot

argument. If dev is NULL, this signifies all batteries.
* ioctl access:
The ACPIIO_BATT_GET_TYPE and ACPIIO_BATT_GET_BATTDESC ioctls have been
removed. Since there is now no need for a mapping between "virtual" unit
and physical unit, usermode programs can just specify the unit directly and
skip the old translation steps. In fact, acpiconf(8) was actually already
doing this and virtual unit was the same as physical unit in all cases
since there was previously only one battery type (acpi_cmbat). Additionally,
we now map the ACPIIO_BATT_GET_BIF and ACPIIO_BATT_GET_BST ioctls for all
batteries, if they provide the associated methods.

data link type of the hook. It will be used to ease autoconfiguration
of netgraph and also to print warning messages, when incompatoble nodes
are connected together.
At the end of ng_snd_item(), node queue is processed. In certain
netgraph setups deep recursive calls can occur.
For example this happens, when two nodes are connected and can send
items to each other in both directions. If, for some reason, both nodes
have a lot of items in their queues, then the processing thread will
recurse between these two nodes, delivering items left and right, going
deeper in the stack. Other setups can suffer from deep recursion, too.
The following factors can influence risk of deep netgraph call:
- periodical write-access events on node
- combination of slow link and fast one in one graph
- net.inet.ip.fastforwarding
Changes made:
- In ng_acquire_{read,write}() do not dequeue another item. Instead,
call ng_setisr() for this node.
- At the end of ng_snd_item(), do not process queue. Call ng_setisr(),
if there are any dequeueable items on node queue.
- In ng_setisr() narrow worklist mutex holding.
- In ng_setisr() assert queue mutex.
Theoretically, the first two changes should negatively affect performance.
To check this, some profiling was made:
1) In general real tasks, no noticable performance difference was found.
2) The following test was made: two multithreaded nodes and one
single-threaded were connected into a ring. A large queues of packets
were sent around this ring. Time to pass the ring N times was measured.
This is a very vacuous test: no items/mbufs are allocated, no upcalls or
downcalls outside of netgraph. It doesn't represent a real load, it is
a stress test for ng_acquire_{read,write}() and item queueing functions.
Surprisingly, the performance impact was positive! New code is 13% faster
on UP and 17% faster on SMP, in this particular test.
The problem was originally found, described, analyzed and original patch
was written by Roselyn Lee from Vernier Networks. Thanks!
