* New definition CHN_F_HAS_VCHAN.
- channel.c
* Use CHN_F_HAS_VCHAN to mark channel with vchan capability instead
of relying on SLIST_EMPTY(&channel->children) == true for better
clarification and future possible usages of children (like
'slave' channel).
* Various fixes, including blocksize / format bps allignment,
better 24bit seeking (mplayer, others).
* Improve format chain building, it's now possible to record something
to a format non-native to the soundcard through various feeder format
converters or to higher sampling rate. This also gains another feature,
like doing vchan mixing on non s16le soundcard such as sb8.
- sound.c
* Increase robustness within various function that handle vchan
creation / termination (these function need a total rewrite, but
that would cause other major rewrite within various places too!).
As far as its robustness can be guaranteed, leave it as is.
* Optimize channel ordering, prefer *real* hardware playback
channels over virtual channels. cat /dev/sndstat should look
better.
* Increase sndstat verbosity to include bufsoft/bufhard allocation.
- vchan.c
* Fix LOR 119.
- http://sources.zabbadoz.net/freebsd/lor.html#119
* Reorder / increase robustness of vchan_create() / destroy().
Enforce destroy_dev() during destroy operation, fix possible
panic / dangling character device.
- http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2005-May/050308.html
* Tolerate a little bit more during mixing process, this should help
non s16le soundcards.
Note: Recoring in a non-native rate/format may result in overruns. A friendly
application is wavrec from audio/wavplay. The problem is under
investigation.

event handler, dev_clone, which accepts a credential argument.
Implementors of the event can ignore it if they're not interested,
and most do. This avoids having multiple event handler types and
fall-back/precedence logic in devfs.
This changes the kernel API for /dev cloning, and may affect third
party packages containg cloning kernel modules.

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>".

This mostly to help CT4730, but apparently it does help other
cards too (especially via8233x). This probably need further test
and confirmation from other people with ac97 cards other than via
/ es137x.

Affects to people WITH an AD1888 codec, the system will output to the port
labeled "speaker" instead of microphone. System will work the same in
multiple operating systems.
If people are currently using their systems with this codec they will need
to swap their output ports.
I have _not_ checked audio input or line input (basically, I have checked
nothing other than line-out).
I believe this is an appropriate change, it makes us consistent with
documentation, and other operating systems. Furthermore, this feature
(playing) is the vast majority of sound activities, so if this makes is
right for playback and wrong for recording... playback is more important,
and we can fix recoding in the future without worries of screwing people
again in the future (since we'll be "right" on the playback).

holds sndstat_lock across a call to uiomove(), which is not legal
to do with a mutex because of the possibility that the data transfer
could sleep because of a page fault. It is not possible to just
unlock the mutex for the uiomove() call without introducing another
locking mechanism to prevent the body of sndstat_read() from being
re-entered. Converting sndstat_lock to an sx lock is the least
complicated change.
This is a candidate for RELENG_5.

because they bogusly check for defined(INTR_MPSAFE) -- something which
never was a #define. Correct the definitions.
This make INTR_TYPE_AV finally get used instead of the lower-priority
INTR_TYPE_TTY, so it's quite possible some improvement will be had
on sound driver performance. It would also make all the drivers
marked INTR_MPSAFE actually run without Giant (which does seem to
work for me), but:
INTR_MPSAFE HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM EVERY SOUND DRIVER!
It needs to be re-added on a case-by-case basis since there is no one
who will vouch for which sound drivers, if any, willy actually operate
correctly without Giant, since there hasn't been testing because of
this bug disabling INTR_MPSAFE.

This avoids problems with lock order reversal and malloc() calls
with a mutex held when lower level code unlocks a channel, calls malloc(),
and relocks the channel. This also avoids the cost of some unnecessary
locking and unlocking.

Change chn_setblocksize() buffer reallocation code to attempt to avoid
the feed_vchan16() buffer overflow by attempting to always keep the
bufsoft buffer at least as large as the bufhard buffer.
Print a diagnositic message
Danger! %s bufsoft size increasing from %d to %d after CHANNEL_SETBLOCKSIZE()
if our best attempts fail. If feed_vchan16() were to be called by
the interrupt handler while locks are dropped in chn_setblocksize()
to increase the size bufsoft to match the size of bufhard, the panic()
code in feed_vchan16() will be triggered. If the diagnostic message
is printed, it is a warning that a panic is possible if the system
were to see events in an "unlucky" order.
Change the locking code to avoid the need for MTX_RECURSIVE mutexes.
Add the MTX_DUPOK option to the channel mutexes and change the locking
sequence to always lock the parent channel before its children to avoid
the possibility of deadlock.
Actually implement locking assertions for the channel mutexes and fix
the problems found by the resulting assertion violations.
Clean up the locking code in dsp_ioctl().
Allocate the channel buffers using the malloc() M_WAITOK option instead
of M_NOWAIT so that buffer allocation won't fail. Drop locks across
the malloc() calls.
Add/modify KASSERTS() in attempt to detect problems early.
Abuse layering by adding a pointer to the snd_dbuf structure that points

proper locking without having to change the its API, which is used by
the hardware drivers.
