kqueue provides a stateful and efficient event notification framework
currently supported events include socket, file, directory, fifo,
pipe, tty and device changes, and monitoring of processes and signals
kqueue is supported by all writable filesystems in NetBSD tree
(with exception of Coda) and all device drivers supporting poll(2)
based on work done by Jonathan Lemon for FreeBSD
initial NetBSD port done by Luke Mewburn and Jason Thorpe
This merge changes the device switch tables from static array to
dynamically generated by config(8).
- All device switches is defined as a constant structure in device drivers.
- The new grammer ``device-major'' is introduced to ``files''.
device-major <prefix> char <num> [block <num>] [<rules>]
- All device major numbers must be listed up in port dependent majors.<arch>
by using this grammer.
- Added the new naming convention.
The name of the device switch must be <prefix>_[bc]devsw for auto-generation
of device switch tables.
- The backward compatibility of loading block/character device
switch by LKM framework is broken. This is necessary to convert
from block/character device major to device name in runtime and vice versa.
- The restriction to assign device major by LKM is completely removed.
We don't need to reserve LKM entries for dynamic loading of device switch.
- In compile time, device major numbers list is packed into the kernel and
the LKM framework will refer it to assign device major number dynamically.
binaries which were working fine on NetBSD 1.5. We defer this change
until a longer-term fix is found as explain in the commit message in
revision 1.132.
Further details can be found in PR17159.
among other things, it behaved as if full-duplex audio devices
were always ready for writing. Also commented the code in case.
This fixes PRs kern/11179 and kern/13829.
recording ring buffer could overrun the end of the buffer. When
recording resumed, memory after the end of the buffer would be read,
sometimes causing a system crash.

auconv.c: Add conversion functions
audio.c: Sample alignment, calling conversion functions, etc.
audio_if.h: Add four hw_* members to "struct audio_params"
audiovar.h: Add conversion buffers, etc.
auich and uaudio: Add conversion request code to *_set_params().
Actually, the silence filler can do any multiple of 8 bits now, but I didn't
allow the parameter check to accept more than 32 bit to avoid confusion
of drivers that fail to check the parameters themselves thoroughly.
This should be changed later.
Because zeroing them causes zero division panic with devices which don't
support 8kHz mulaw, and the effect of this line was to force calling
audio_calcwater even when unnecessary.
documented as to why it was added in and it breaks the ability to set the
gain on playback. A longer term fix to set these correctly should be done but
none of the drivers today are doing this and not being able to set the playback
volume otherwise is a bit silly.
"off_t" and the return value is a "paddr_t" to allow mappings
at offsets past 2^31 bytes. Somewhat inspired by FreeBSD, which
only changed the offset to a "vm_offset_t".
Includes updates for the i386, pc532 and sh3 mmmmap from Jason Thorpe.
