.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm snd_hda
|
|
.Nd "Intel High Definition Audio bridge device driver"
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your
|
|
kernel configuration file:
|
|
.Bd -ragged -offset indent
|
|
.Cd "device sound"
|
|
.Cd "device snd_hda"
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the
|
|
following line in
|
|
.Xr loader.conf 5 :
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
snd_hda_load="YES"
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
bridge device driver allows the generic audio driver,
|
|
.Xr sound 4 ,
|
|
to attach to Intel High Definition Audio devices.
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver supports hardware that conforms with revision 1.0 of the Intel High
|
|
Definition Audio specification and tries to behave much like the Microsoft
|
|
Universal Audio Architecture (UAA) draft (revision 0.7b) for handling audio
|
|
devices.
|
|
HDA acts like a primary bus, similar to
|
|
.Xr miibus 4 ,
|
|
for handling various child buses such as audio, modem and HDMI (High Definition
|
|
Multimedia Interface).
|
|
Only audio is implemented in the
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The High Definition (HD) Audio specification was developed by Intel as the
|
|
logical successor of the old AC'97 specification and has several advantages,
|
|
such as higher bandwidth which allows more channels and more detailed formats,
|
|
support for several logical audio devices, and general purpose DMA channels.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The HDA specification defines the register-level interface, physical link
|
|
characteristics, codec programming models, and codec architectural components.
|
|
This specification is intended for both device driver developers and hardware
|
|
component designers.
|
|
.Ss Runtime Configuration
|
|
The following
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8
|
|
variables are available in addition to those available to all
|
|
.Xr sound 4
|
|
devices:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".Va dev.pcm.%d.polling" -offset indent
|
|
.It Va dev.pcm.%d.polling
|
|
Experimental polling mode, where the driver operates by querying the device
|
|
state on each tick using
|
|
.Xr callout 9 .
|
|
Polling is disabled by default.
|
|
Do not enable it unless you are facing weird interrupt problems or if the
|
|
device cannot generate interrupts at all.

.Sh HISTORY
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
device driver first appeared in
|
|
.Fx 7.0 .
|
|
.Sh AUTHORS
|
|
.An -nosplit
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver was written by
|
|
.An Stephane E. Potvin Aq sepotvin@videotron.ca
|
|
and
|
|
.An Ariff Abdullah Aq ariff@FreeBSD.org .
|
|

|

|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
There are a couple of missing features, such as support for Digital
|
|
S/PDIF and multichannel output.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A few Hardware/OEM vendors tend to screw up BIOS settings, thus
|
|
rendering the
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver useless, which usually results in a state where the
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver seems to attach and work, but without any sound.
