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 avoids problems with lock order reversal and malloc() calls

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

This is the behavior that Linux provides and fixes the problem I've

where physical addresses larger than virtual addresses, such as i386s
with PAE.
- Use this to represent physical addresses in the MI vm system and in the
i386 pmap code. This also changes the paddr parameter to d_mmap_t.
- Fix printf formats to handle physical addresses >4G in the i386 memory
detection code, and due to kvtop returning vm_paddr_t instead of u_long.
Note that this is a name change only; vm_paddr_t is still the same as
vm_offset_t on all currently supported platforms.

Initialize struct cdevsw using C99 sparse initializtion and remove
all initializations to default values.
This patch is automatically generated and has been tested by compiling

sparc64 and i386.
Approved by: re(scottl)
- Get rid of the useless atop() / pmap_phys_address() detour. The
device mmap handlers must now give back the physical address
without atop()'ing it.
- Don't borrow the physical address of the mapping in the returned
int. Now we properly pass a vm_offset_t * and expect it to be
filled by the mmap handler when the mapping was successful. The
mmap handler must now return 0 when successful, any other value
is considered as an error. Previously, returning -1 was the only
way to fail. This change thus accidentally fixes some devices
which were bogusly returning errno constants which would have been
considered as addresses by the device pager.
- Garbage collect the poorly named pmap_phys_address() now that it's
no longer used.
- Convert all the d_mmap_t consumers to the new API.
I'm still not sure wheter we need a __FreeBSD_version bump for this,
since and we didn't guarantee API/ABI stability until 5.1-RELEASE.

vchans are software mixed playback channels. they are not enabled by this
commit. they use the feeder infrastructure to emulate normal playback
channels in a manner transparent to applications, whilst providing as many

playback channel. in the future they will provide additional features.
those wishing to test this functionality will need to add vchan.c to
