.Os
|
|
.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm snd_via8233
|
|
.Nd "VIA Technologies VT8233 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_via8233"
|
|
.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_via8233_load="YES"
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
bridge driver allows the generic audio driver,
|
|
.Xr sound 4 ,
|
|
to attach to the VIA VT8233 audio devices.
|
|
These audio chipsets are integrated in the southbridge on many VIA based
|
|
motherboards.
|
|
.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.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh HARDWARE
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|

driver supports the following audio chipsets:

|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver
|
|
does not support S/PDIF.
|
|
There is partial support in the code, so implementing it should be fairly
|
|
easy if the right hardware is available.
