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.
Fixup samples/patches can be found at:
http://people.freebsd.org/~ariff/ports/

- 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.

Driver specific
---------------

- 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.

- snd_ich
* Fix possible overflow during speed calibration. Delay final
initialization (pcm_setstatus) after calibration finished.

those at #freebsd-azalia @ freenode and others for testing.

Joel Dahl will do the manpage update.

Addresses problem raised by Randy Bush on -multimedia of not being
able to hear audio on ich2 m/b which was eventually found to be
because the mixer monitor value was 0. On this h/w the label
"monitor" should now be presented as the marginally more intuitive
"ogain".

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.
