These changes prevent sysctl(8) from returning proper output,
such as:

1) no output from sysctl(8)
2) erroneously returning ENOMEM with tools like truss(1)
or uname(1)
truss: can not get etype: Cannot allocate memory

Extend the meaning of the CTLFLAG_TUN flag to automatically check if
there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL
during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and
dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some
special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL
node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out
common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for
changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid
parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of
adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.

Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is
called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is
not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered.
- Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.

Sound Mega-commit. Expect further cleanup until code freeze.

For a slightly thorough explaination, please refer to
[1] http://people.freebsd.org/~ariff/SOUND_4.TXT.html .

Summary of changes includes:

1 Volume Per-Channel (vpc). Provides private / standalone volume control
unique per-stream pcm channel without touching master volume / pcm.
Applications can directly use SNDCTL_DSP_[GET|SET][PLAY|REC]VOL, or for
backwards compatibility, SOUND_MIXER_PCM through the opened dsp device
instead of /dev/mixer. Special "bypass" mode is enabled through
/dev/mixer which will automatically detect if the adjustment is made
through /dev/mixer and forward its request to this private volume
controller. Changes to this volume object will not interfere with
other channels.

Requirements:
- SNDCTL_DSP_[GET|SET][PLAY|REC]_VOL are newer ioctls (OSSv4) which
require specific application modifications (preferred).
- No modifications required for using bypass mode, so applications
like mplayer or xmms should work out of the box.

Kernel hints:
- hint.pcm.%d.vpc (0 = disable vpc).

Kernel sysctls:
- hw.snd.vpc_mixer_bypass (default: 1). Enable or disable /dev/mixer
bypass mode.
- hw.snd.vpc_autoreset (default: 1). By default, closing/opening
/dev/dsp will reset the volume back to 0 db gain/attenuation.
Setting this to 0 will preserve its settings across device
closing/opening.
- hw.snd.vpc_reset (default: 0). Panic/reset button to reset all
volume settings back to 0 db.
- hw.snd.vpc_0db (default: 45). 0 db relative to linear mixer value.

2 High quality fixed-point Bandlimited SINC sampling rate converter,
based on Julius O'Smith's Digital Audio Resampling -
http://ccrma.stanford.edu/~jos/resample/. It includes a filter design
script written in awk (the clumsiest joke I've ever written)
- 100% 32bit fixed-point, 64bit accumulator.
- Possibly among the fastest (if not fastest) of its kind.
- Resampling quality is tunable, either runtime or during kernel
compilation (FEEDER_RATE_PRESETS).
- Quality can be further customized during kernel compilation by
defining FEEDER_RATE_PRESETS in /etc/make.conf.

Kernel sysctls:
- hw.snd.feeder_rate_quality.
0 - Zero-order Hold (ZOH). Fastest, bad quality.
1 - Linear Interpolation (LINEAR). Slightly slower than ZOH,
better quality but still does not eliminate aliasing.
2 - (and above) - Sinc Interpolation(SINC). Best quality. SINC
quality always start from 2 and above.

Rough quality comparisons:
- http://people.freebsd.org/~ariff/z_comparison/

3 Bit-perfect mode. Bypasses all feeder/dsp effects. Pure sound will be
directly fed into the hardware.

4 Parametric (compile time) Software Equalizer (Bass/Treble mixer). Can
be customized by defining FEEDER_EQ_PRESETS in /etc/make.conf.

5 Transparent/Adaptive Virtual Channel. Now you don't have to disable
vchans in order to make digital format pass through. It also makes
vchans more dynamic by choosing a better format/rate among all the
concurrent streams, which means that dev.pcm.X.play.vchanformat/rate
becomes sort of optional.

6 Exclusive Stream, with special open() mode O_EXCL. This will "mute"
other concurrent vchan streams and only allow a single channel with
O_EXCL set to keep producing sound.

Other Changes:
* most feeder_* stuffs are compilable in userland. Let's not
speculate whether we should go all out for it (save that for
FreeBSD 16.0-RELEASE).
* kobj signature fixups, thanks to Andriy Gapon <avg@freebsd.org>
* pull out channel mixing logic out of vchan.c and create its own
feeder_mixer for world justice.
* various refactoring here and there, for good or bad.
* activation of few more OSSv4 ioctls() (see [1] above).
* opt_snd.h for possible compile time configuration:
(mostly for debugging purposes, don't try these at home)

Bring in USB4BSD, Hans Petter Selasky rework of the USB stack
that includes significant features and SMP safety.

This commit includes a more or less complete rewrite of the *BSD USB
stack, including Host Controller and Device Controller drivers and
updating all existing USB drivers to use the new USB API:

1) A brief feature list:

- A new and mutex enabled USB API.

- Many USB drivers are now running Giant free.

- Linux USB kernel compatibility layer.

- New UGEN backend and libusb library, finally solves the "driver
unloading" problem. The new BSD licensed libusb20 library is fully
compatible with libusb-0.1.12 from sourceforge.

- New "usbconfig" utility, for easy configuration of USB.

- Full support for Split transactions, which means you can use your
full speed USB audio device on a high speed USB HUB.

- Full support for HS ISOC transactions, which makes writing drivers
for various HS webcams possible, for example.

- Full support for USB on embedded platforms, mostly cache flushing
and buffer invalidating stuff.

- Safer parsing of USB descriptors.

- Autodetect of annoying USB install disks.

- Support for USB device side mode, also called USB gadget mode,
using the same API like the USB host side. In other words the new
USB stack is symmetric with regard to host and device side.

- Support for USB transfers like I/O vectors, means more throughput
and less interrupts.

- ... see the FreeBSD quarterly status reports under "USB project"

2) To enable the driver in the default kernel build:

2.a) Remove all existing USB device options from your kernel config
file.

2.b) Add the following USB device options to your kernel configuration
file:

# USB core support
device usb2_core

# USB controller support
device usb2_controller
device usb2_controller_ehci
device usb2_controller_ohci
device usb2_controller_uhci

# USB mass storage support
device usb2_storage
device usb2_storage_mass

# USB ethernet support, requires miibus
device usb2_ethernet
device usb2_ethernet_aue
device usb2_ethernet_axe
device usb2_ethernet_cdce
device usb2_ethernet_cue
device usb2_ethernet_kue
device usb2_ethernet_rue
device usb2_ethernet_dav

# USB wireless LAN support
device usb2_wlan
device usb2_wlan_rum
device usb2_wlan_ral
device usb2_wlan_zyd

# USB serial device support
device usb2_serial
device usb2_serial_ark
device usb2_serial_bsa
device usb2_serial_bser
device usb2_serial_chcom
device usb2_serial_cycom
device usb2_serial_foma
device usb2_serial_ftdi
device usb2_serial_gensa
device usb2_serial_ipaq
device usb2_serial_lpt
device usb2_serial_mct
device usb2_serial_modem
device usb2_serial_moscom
device usb2_serial_plcom
device usb2_serial_visor
device usb2_serial_vscom

# USB bluetooth support
device usb2_bluetooth
device usb2_bluetooth_ng

# USB input device support
device usb2_input
device usb2_input_hid
device usb2_input_kbd
device usb2_input_ms

# USB sound and MIDI device support
device usb2_sound

2) To enable the driver at runtime:

2.a) Unload all existing USB modules. If USB is compiled into the
kernel then you might have to build a new kernel.

2.b) Load the "usb2_xxx.ko" modules under /boot/kernel having the same
base name like the kernel device option.

Remove unit2minor() use from kernel code.

When I changed kern_conf.c three months ago I made device unit numbers
equal to (unneeded) device minor numbers. We used to require
bitshifting, because there were eight bits in the middle that were
reserved for a device major number. Not very long after I turned
dev2unit(), minor(), unit2minor() and minor2unit() into macro's.
The unit2minor() and minor2unit() macro's were no-ops.

We'd better not remove these four macro's from the kernel, because there
is a lot of (external) code that may still depend on them. For now it's
harmless to remove all invocations of unit2minor() and minor2unit().

- Locking fixes to avoid possible deadlock with (still under Giant) USB.
- Better simplex/duplex device handling.
- Recover mmap() functionality for recording, which has been lost
since 2.2.x - 3.x (the introduction of newpcm). Full-duplex mmap still
doesn't work (due to VM/page design), but people still can mmap
both by opening each direction separately. mmaped playback is guarantee
to work either way.
- New sysctl: "hw.snd.compat_linux_mmap" to allow PROT_EXEC page
mapping, due to recent changes in linux compatibility layer which
require it. All linux applications that using sound + mmap() (mostly games)
require this to be enabled. Disabled by default.
- Other goodies.. too many, that will increase releng7 shareholder value
and make users of releng6 (and below) cry ;)

* This commit should be atomic. If anything goes wrong (not counting problem
originated from elsewhere), I will not hesitate to revert everything back
within 12 hours. This substantial changes itself not a rocket science
and the process has begun for almost 2 years, and lots of incremental

Last major commit and updates for RELENG_7:

- Rework the entire pcm_channel structure:
* Remove rarely used link placeholder, instead, make each pcm_channel
as head/link of each own/each other. Unlock - Lock sequence due to
sleep malloc has been reduced.
* Implement "busy" queue which will contain list of busy/active
channels. This greatly reduce locking contention for example while
servicing interrupt for hardware with many channels or when virtual
channels reach its 256 peak channels.

- So I heard you like v chan ... O RLY?
Welcome to Virtual **Record** Channels (vrec, rec vchans, vchans for
recording, Rec-Chan, you decide), the ultimate solutions for your
nagging O_RDWR full-duplex wannabe (note: flash plugins) monopolizing
single record channel causing EBUSY. Vrec works exactly like Vchans
(or, should I rename it to "Vplay" :) , except that it operates on the
opposite direction (recording). Up to 256 vrecs (like vchans) are
possible.

Notes:
* Relocate dev.pcm.%d.{vchans,vchanformat,vchanrate} to each of its
respective node/direction:
dev.pcm.%d.play.* for "play" (cdev = dsp%d.vp%d)
dev.pcm.%d.rec.* for "record" (cdev = dsp%d.vr%d)
* Don't expect that it will magically give you ability to split
"recording source" (eg: 1 channel for cdrom, 1 channel for mic,
etc). Just admit that you only have a *single* recording source /
channel. Please bug your hardware vendor instead :)

- Bump maxautovchans from 4 to 16. For a full-fledged multimedia
desktop/workstation with too many soundservers installed (esound,
artsd, jackd, pulse/polypaudio, ding-dong pling plong mudkip fuh fuh,
etc), 4 seems inadequate. There will be no memory penalty here, since
virtual channels are allocate only by demand.

- Nuke/Rework the entire statically created cdev entries. Everything is
clonable through snd own clone manager which designed to withstand many
kind of abusive devfs droids such as:
* while : ; do /bin/test -e /dev/dsp ; done
* jot 16777216 0 | while read x ; do ls /dev/dsp0.$x ; done
* hundreds (could be thousands) concurrent threads/process opening
"/dev/dsp" (previously, this might result EBUSY even with just
3 contesting threads/procs).
o Reusable clone objects (instead of creating new one like there's no
tomorrow) after certain expiration deadline. The clone allocator will
decide whether to reuse, share, or creating new clone.
o Automatic garbage collector.

- Dynamic unit magic allocator. Maximum attached soundcards can be tuned
using tunable "hw.snd.maxunit" (Default to 512). Minimum is 16, and
maximum is 2048.

- ..other fixes, mostly related to concurrency issues.

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.

1) Download / extract

2) Do a comparison between "cat state*.au > /dev/dsp" and

MFp4 the sound Google Summer of Code project:

The goal was to sync with the OSSv4 API 4Front Technologies uses in their
proprietary OSS driver. This was successful as far as possible. The part
of the API which is stable is implemented, for the rest there are some
stubs already.

New system ioctls:
- SNDCTL_SYSINFO - obtain audio system info (version, # of audio/midi/
mixer devices, etc.)
- SNDCTL_AUDIOINFO - fetch details about a specific audio device
- SNDCTL_MIXERINFO - fetch details about a specific mixer device

New audio ioctls:
- Sync groups (SNDCTL_DSP_SYNCGROUP/SNDCTL_DSP_SYNCSTART) which allow
triggered playback/recording on multiple devices (even across processes
simultaneously).
- Peak meters (SNDCTL_DSP_GETIPEAKS/SNDCTL_DSP_GETOPEAKS) - can query
audio drivers for peak levels (needs driver support, disabled for now).
- Per channel playback/recording levels -
SNDCTL_DSP_{GET,SET}{PLAY,REC}VOL. Note that these are still in name
only, just wrapping around the AC97-style mixer at the moment. The next
step is to push them down to the drivers.

Audio ioctls still under development by 4Front (for which stubs may exist
in this commit):
- SNDCTL_GETNAME, SNDCTL_{GET,SET}{SONG,LABEL}
- SNDCTL_DSP_{GET,SET}_CHNORDER
- SNDCTL_MIX_ENUMINFO, SNDCTL_MIX_EXTINFO - (might be documented enough in
the OSS releases to work on this. These ioctls cover the cool "twiddle
any knob on your card" features.)

Missing:
- SNDCTL_DSP_COOKEDMODE -- this ioctl is used to give applications direct
access to a card's buffers, bypassing the feeder architecture. It's
a toughy -- "someone" needs to decide :
(a) if this is desireable, and (b) if it's reasonably feasible.

Updates for driver writers:
So far, only two routines to the channel class (in channel_if.m) are added.
One is for fetching a list of discrete supported playback/recording rates
of a channel, and the other is for fetching peak level info (useful for
drawing peak meters). Interested parties may want to help pushing down
SNDCTL_DSP_{GET,SET}{PLAY,REC}VOL into the drivers.

To use the new stuff you need to rebuild the sound drivers or your kernel
(depending on if you use modules or not) and to install soundcard.h (a
buildworld/installworld handles this).

fall-back/precedence logic in devfs.

This changes the kernel API for /dev cloning, and may affect third
party packages containg cloning kernel modules.

Explicitly hold a reference to the cdev we have just cloned. This
closes the race where the cdev was reclaimed before it ever made it

Flip sense of D_NOGIANT flag to D_NEEDGIANT, this involves removing

Fix sound LOR problems:

dsp_open: rearrange to only hold one lock at a time

dsp_close: ditto

mixer_hwvol_init: delete locking, the only consumer seems to
be the ess driver and it only call it a creation time, I

either this or do what emu10k1 does which is have no locks
at in the interrupt handler.

MFS: allow multiple opens of mixer devices

many changes:

* add new channels to the end of the list so channels used in order of
addition

* de-globalise definition of struct snddev_info and provide accessor
functions where necessary.

* move the $FreeBSD$ tag in each .c file into a macro and allow the
/dev/sndstat handler to display these when set to maximum verbosity to aid
debugging.

* allow each device to register its own sndstat handler to reduce the amount
of groping sndstat must do in foreign structs.

set default 'monitor' volume (ac97 headphones) to 75%

add defines and ifdefs so this code will compile on 4.x

add spls so this code will work on 4.x

use a global devclass for all drivers - i'm not entirely sure why this
worked before.

mixer, dsp and sndstat are seperate devices - give them their own cdevsws
instead of demuxing requests sent to a single cdevsw.

use the si_drv1/si_drv2 fields in dev_t structures for holding information
specific to an open instance of mixer/dsp.

nuke /dev/{dsp,dspW,audio}[0-9]* links - this functionality is now provided
using cloning.

various locking fixes.

mega-commit.

this introduces a new buffering mechanism which results in dramatic
simplification of the channel manager.

as several structures have changed, we take the opportunity to move their
definitions into the source files where they are used, make them private and
de-typedef them.

the sound drivers are updated to use snd_setup_intr instead of
bus_setup_intr, and to comply with the de-typedefed structures.

the ac97, mixer and channel layers have been updated with finegrained
locking, as have some drivers- not all though. the rest will follow soon.

MFS: 4.x/5.x compatibility #ifdefs

- Move all of the hwvol functions into a mixer_hwvol_* namespace, and make
all of the hwvol members of struct snd_mixer live in a hwvol_* namespace.
- When changing the mixer device via the hwvol_mixer sysctl, reset the
muted state so that a mute operation on a new device won't try to
unmute the new device with the old device's saved volume.
- When the volume is muted, if a down or up volume request is received,
first restore the saved volume level and then adjust it.

Reviewed by: cg

- Make the 'hwvol_mixer' and 'hwvol_step' variables be specific to a
specific snd_mixer device rather than global across all mixers.
- Add per-mixer mute status and saved mute_level so that the mixer_hwmute()
function can now toggle the mute state when the mute button is pressed.
- Create a dynamic sysctl tree hw.snd.pcmX when a pcm device is registered.
- Move the hw.snd.hwvol_* sysctl's to hw.snd.pcmX.hwvol_* so that they
are now properly device-specific. Eventually when the mixers become
their own devices these sysctl's will move to live under a mixerX tree.
- Change the interface of the hwvol_mixer sysctl so that it reports the
name of the current mixer device instead of the number and is settable
with the name instead of the number.
- Add a new function mixer_hwinit() used to setup the dynamic sysctl's
needed for the hwvol support that can be called by drivers that support
hwvol.

Reviewed by: cg

Add a new API for soundcards that have hardware volume control:
- The mixer_hwmute() function can be called when a soundcard receives a
mute request.
- The mixer_hwstep() function can be used to adjust the volume of one or
both channels.
- The 'hw.snd.hwvol_step' sysctl determines the amount that mixer_hwstep()
adjusts the volume by on each call.
- The 'hw.snd.hwvol_mixer' sysctl specifies the mixer device to adjust the
volume on for both functions. The values used correspond to the
SOUNDCARD_MIXER_* constants.

update code dealing with snd_dbuf objects to do so using a functional interface

modify chn_setblocksize() to pick a default soft-blocksize appropriate to the
sample rate and format in use. it will aim for a power of two size small
enough to generate block sizes of at most 20ms. it will also set the
hard-blocksize taking into account rate/format conversions in use.

updated, untested: ad1816, ess, mss, sb8, csa
not updated: ds1, es137x, fm801, neomagic, t4dwave, via82c686

i lack hardware to test: ad1816, csa, fm801, neomagic
others will be updated/tested in the next few days.

kobjify.

this gives us several benefits, including:

* easier extensibility- new optional methods can be added to
ac97/mixer/channel classes without having to fixup every driver.

* forward compatibility for drivers, provided no new mandatory methods are
added.

add reinit functions to mixers
unstaticize chn_start()
add reset/resetdone functions to channels

Fix warnings by moving static functions before they are used.

add a missing return statement, doh.

change mixer api slightly
change channel interface - kobj implementation coming soonish
make pcm_makelinks not panic if modular
add pcm_unregister()

these changes support newpcm kld unloading, but this is only implemented

playmidi (We definitely need more)

Notes:

/dev/midistat now reports installed midi drivers. /dev/sndstat reports
only pcm drivers. We need the new name(pcmstat?).

EMU8000(SB AWE) does not sound yet but does get probed so that the OPL3
