most cases NULL is passed, but in some cases such as network driver locks
(which use the MTX_NETWORK_LOCK macro) and UMA zone locks, a name is used.
Tested on: i386, alpha, sparc64
hw.midi.debug and hw.midi.seq.debug to 1 to enable debug log.
- Make debug messages human-frendly.
- Implement /dev/music.
- Add a timer engine required by /dev/music.
- Fix nonblocking I/O.
- Fix the numbering of midi and synth devices.
- Move from msleep/wakeup to condvar.
- Return either zero or a positive errno value from a function.
Return additional result via references.
- Unify the typedef of callback functions.
1: most drivers are sensitive to timing, and
2: the handlers are MPSAFE and need a chance to get into the kernel
before some other non-mpsafe handler blocks the ithread on Giant in
shared irq cases.

If you ever want to run midi(4) out of the giant lock, uncomment
MIDI_OUTOFGIANT in midi.h. Confirmed to work for csamidi with WITNESS
and INVARIANTS.
- midi_info, midi_open and seq_info are now tailqs, allowing arbitrary
numbers of devices to be configured.
- Do not send an active sensing message to reset midi modules.
- Clone /dev/sequencer*. /dev/sequencer0 and /dev/sequencer are generated
upon initialization.
cloning infrastructure standard in kern_conf. Modules are now
the same with or without devfs support.
If you need to detect if devfs is present, in modules or elsewhere,
check the integer variable "devfs_present".
This happily removes an ugly hack from kern/vfs_conf.c.
This forces a rename of the eventhandler and the standard clone
helper function.
Include <sys/eventhandler.h> in <sys/conf.h>: it's a helper #include
like <sys/queue.h>
Remove all #includes of opt_devfs.h they no longer matter.
(I had been busy for my own research activity until the last weekend)
Supported devices:
SB Midi Port (sbc + midi)
SB OPL3 (sbc + midi)
16550 UART (midi, needs a trick in your hint)
CS461x Midi Port (csa + midi)
OSS-compatible sequencer (seq)
Supported playing software:
playmidi (We definitely need more)
Notes:
/dev/midistat now reports installed midi drivers. /dev/sndstat reports
only pcm drivers. We need the new name(pcmstat?).
EMU8000(SB AWE) does not sound yet but does get probed so that the OPL3
synth on an AWE card works.
