support was missing in the previous version of the AIO code. More
tunables added, and very efficient support for VCHR files has been added.
Kernel threads are not used for VCHR files, all work for such files is
done for the requesting process directly. Some attempt has been made to
charge the requesting process for resource utilization, but more work
is needed. aio_fsync is still missing (but the original fsync system
call can be used for now.) aio_cancel is essentially a noop, but that
is okay per POSIX. More aio_cancel functionality can be added later,
if it is found to be needed.
The functions implemented include:
aio_read, aio_write, lio_listio, aio_error, aio_return,
aio_cancel, aio_suspend.
The code has been implemented to support the POSIX spec 1003.1b
(formerly known as POSIX 1003.4 spec) features of the above. The
async I/O features are truly async, with the VCHR mode of operation
being essentially the same as physio (for appropriate files) for
maximum efficiency. This code also supports the signal capability,
is highly tunable, allowing management of resource usage, and
has been written to allow a per process usage quota.
Both the O'Reilly POSIX.4 book and the actual POSIX 1003.1b document
were the reference specs used. Any filedescriptor can be used with
these new system calls. I know of no exceptions where these
system calls will not work. (TTY's will also probably work.)

Somthing like this was needed in preference to bogusly bumping the major

things so that it uses the same malloc as is used by the program
being executed. This has several advantages, the big one being
that you can now debug core dumps from dynamically linked programs
and get useful information out of them. Until now, that didn't
work. The internal malloc package placed the tables describing
the loaded shared libraries in a mapped region of high memory that
was not written to core files. Thus the debugger had no way of
determining what was loaded where in memory. Now that the dynamic
linker uses the application's malloc package (normally, but not
necessarily, the system malloc), its tables end up in the regular
heap area where they will be included in core dumps. The debugger
now works very well indeed, thank you very much.

This needs to go into -2.2 as well, after a suitable burn-in period.
Here are the remanding changes required to support the Ensoniq
Soundscape using FreeBSD 3.0-current.
Notes:
1) ad1848_init already has code to detect if DMA_DUPLEX should
be set so it is not necessary (and is in fact a mistake) to
hard code setting it. Not all soundcards (i.e. the current
sscape driver) are capable of using DMA_DUPLEX.
2) The other changes are hopefully self explanatory. Feel free
to let me know if you need additional information.

POSIX requires that the functions return the error code as the return
value of the function instead.
