Two 192/24/8 playback streams overflow single mandatory output line (SDO)
of HDA bus. Handle that from two directions:
- Add support for "striping" (using several SDO lines), if supported.
- Account HDA bus utilization and return error on new stream allocation
attempt if remaining bandwidth is unsifficient.

Most of HDA controllers have one SDO line with 46Mbps output bandwidth.
NVIDIA GF210 has 2 lines - 92Mbps. NVIDIA GF520 has 4 lines - 184Mbps!

Major snd_hda driver rewrite:
- Huge old hdac driver was split into three independent pieces: HDA
controller driver (hdac), HDA CODEC driver (hdacc) and HDA sudio function
driver (hdaa).
- Support for multichannel recording was added. Now, as specification
defines, driver checks input associations for pins with sequence numbers
14 and 15, and if found (usually) -- works as before, mixing signals
together. If it doesn't, it configures input association as multichannel.
- Signal tracer was improved to look for cases where several DACs/ADCs in
CODEC can work with the same audio signal. If such case found, driver
registers additional playback/record stream (channel) for the pcm device.
- New controller streams reservation mechanism was implemented. That
allows to have more pcm devices then streams supported by the controller
(usually 4 in each direction). Now it limits only number of simultaneously
transferred audio streams, that is rarely reachable and properly reported
if happens.
- Codec pins and GPIO signals configuration was exported via set of
writable sysctls. Another sysctl dev.hdaa.X.reconfig allows to trigger
driver reconfiguration in run-time.
- Driver now decodes pins location and connector type names. In some cases
it allows to hint user where on the system case connectors, related to the
pcm device, are located. Number of channels supported by pcm device,
reported now (if it is not 2), should also make search easier.
- Added workaround for digital mic on some Asus laptops/netbooks.

Add multichannel (4.0 and 7.1) playback support. 5.1 mode support blocked
now due to unidentified synchonization problem. For 7.1 soundcards 5.1
support handled correctly via software upmix done by sound(4).

Stereo stream is no more duplicated to all ports. If you loose sound, check
you are using right connectors. Front speakers connector is usually green,
center/LFE - orange, rear - black, side - gray.

Improve HDA controller capabilities logging.

Strictly differentiate digital and analog PCM devices according to codec
nodes capabilities. Add "Analog"/"Digital" marks to the pcm device names.

I hope it will help new users easier accept concept of several PCM devices
and understand exact purposes of that devices.

My massive snd_hda driver update.

Because of using more clear and same time more functional codec parser
new driver is able to handle more codecs, use them better then before and
without most of previous quirks. All of tested codecs itself manage playback,
record, input mixing and monitoring quite fine. In all of investigated
trouble cases problem was found or in nonstandard codec usage or incorrect
codec configuration made by BIOS. Most of that cases could be fixed using
device hints, some of which are already included to the driver.

New driver supports multiple codecs per HDA bus, multiple audio function
groups per codec and multiple logical sound devices per audio function group.
So don't worry when you get several PCM devices instead of one, it is normal.
It is usual situation with powerful codecs to provide, for example, 3 PCM
devices: one for 7.1 playback and main recording, one for headset and one
for digital SPDIF I/O.

New driver implements Universal Audio Architecture (UAA) much better then
previous one. Most information about recommended codec usage now taken from
the codec configuration registers initialized by BIOS. User may alter that
configuration using device hints to reconfigure logical audio devices to
his needs in a very broad range up to the limits of the codec functionality.

New driver supports digital PCM playback and AC3 pass-through. I am not sure
about completeness of this implementation, but I have several success stories
including my own. Vchans subsystem does not support AC3 pass-through so it
had to be disabled for that devices at this moment.

New driver is ready for multichannel playback, but until our OSS is unable
to use this it will just duplicate same stereo stream into all channel
pairs.

New driver supports suspend/resume. I am unable to really test this part
myself, but I have got several success stories.

Driver has very informative verbose boot messages. So if you have any
questions or problems - enable and read them first.

Miscellaneous changes and fix:

- Remove explicit call to pmap_change_attr(), since we now have proper
and functional definition of BUS_DMA_NOCACHE.
- Enable PCI(e) bus snooping for non i386/amd64 as an alternative for
uncacheable DMA.
- Codecs changes:
* Analag Device -> Analog Devices, AD1988.
* New codec: VIA VT1708 and VT1709, Realtek ALC262, ALC861-VD and
ALC885.
* Various fixups for Conexant Waikiki, fix recording (read: microphone)
on various Analog Devices codecs due to vendor BIOS mess, various
quirks for several ASUS laptops/boards.
- Fix connection list handling, closely following the specification to
handle range of nids.
- Basic Jack sense polling infrastructure for possible hardwares with
broken unsolicited response interrupt.

Fix typo in a comment.

Welcome to Once-a-year Sound Mega-Commit. Enjoy numerous updates and fixes
in every sense.

General
-------

- Multichannel safe, endian safe, format safe
* Large part of critical pcm filters such as vchan.c, feeder_rate.c,
feeder_volume.c, feeder_fmt.c and feeder.c has been rewritten so that
using them does not cause the pcm data to be converted to 16bit little
endian.
* Macrosses for accessing pcm data safely are defined within sound.h in
the form of PCM_READ_* / PCM_WRITE_*
* Currently, most of them are probably limited for mono/stereo handling,
but the future addition of true multichannel will be much easier.

- Low latency operation
* Well, this require lot more works to do not just within sound driver,
but we're heading towards right direction. Buffer/block sizing within
channel.c is rewritten to calculate precise allocation for various
combination of sample/data/rate size. As a result, applying correct
SNDCTL_DSP_POLICY value will achive expected latency behaviour simmilar
to what commercial 4front driver do.
* Signal handling fix. ctrl+c of "cat /dev/zero > /dev/dsp" does not
result long delay.
* Eliminate sound truncation if the sound data is too small.
DIY:
1) Download / extract
http://people.freebsd.org/~ariff/lowlatency/shortfiles.tar.gz
2) Do a comparison between "cat state*.au > /dev/dsp" and
"for x in state*.au ; do cat $x > /dev/dsp ; done"
- there should be no "perceivable" differences.
Double close for PR kern/31445.

CAVEAT: Low latency come with (unbearable) price especially for poorly
written applications. Applications that trying to act smarter
by requesting (wrong) blocksize/blockcount will suffer the most.

- Switch minimum/maximum sampling rate limit to "1" and "2016000" (48k * 42)
due to closer compatibility with 4front driver.
Discussed with: marcus@ (long time ago?)

- All driver specific sysctls in the form of "hw.snd.pcm%d.*" have been
moved to their own dev sysctl nodes, notably:
hw.snd.pcm%d.vchans -> dev.pcm.%d.vchans
Bump __FreeBSD_version.

- Ditto for sysctls.

- snd_atiixp, snd_es137x, snd_via8233, snd_hda
* Numerous cleanups and fixes.
* _EXPERIMENTAL_ polling mode support using simple callout_* mechanisme.
This was intended for pure debugging and latency measurement, but proven
good enough in few unexpected and rare cases (such as problematic shared
IRQ with GIANT devices - USB). Polling can be enabled/disabled through
dev.pcm.0.polling. Disabled by default.

Thanks to various people, notably Joel Dahl, Yuriy Tsibizov, Kevin Oberman,
those at #freebsd-azalia @ freenode and others for testing.

Joel Dahl will do the manpage update.

- Fix wrong id for ALC882, add ALC883 id.

- Add support for the Conexant Waikiki/CX20551-22, found
in most Toshiba P100 series laptops. Despite of growing
urban legend of "unsupported Conexant", this codec is fully
supported in this driver.
Note: Toshiba P100 has broken (acpi) BIOS, thus rendering
its soundchip useless. Please disable ACPI, or get
BIOS updates (if any).

- Parser cleanups to handle possible oss/mixer collision. Found
after parsing Conexant Waikiki nodes.

- Increase resilient against resource failure during attach/detach.

- Implement simple config through hint.pcm.<unit>.config. Supported
options:
gpio0 (default on Acer), gpio1, gpio2, softpcmvol,
fixedrate (default), forcestereo (default)
* Option prefixed with "no" (such as "nofixedrate") will do
the opposite.
* Options can be separated using space " " or comma ",".
* The "no" option will take precedence over anything else.
Example:
hint.pcm.0.config="gpio2,nofixedrate,noforcestereo,nogpio0,softpcmvol"
hint.pcm.0.config="softpcmvol noforcestereo"

Add support for Intel High Definition Audio Controller.

This driver make a special guarantee that "playback" works
on majority hardwares with minimal or without specific vendor
quirk.

This driver is a product of collaborative effort made by:
