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.
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.
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
by ds1.c
* add a callback for initialising the mixer interface
* support ac97 2.1 variable rate audio feature
fix ac97-using drivers for the above
add suspend/resume support for neomagic
