two DMA channels to do e.g. full-duplex. This allows
a way of specifying the second channel in a sane way.
THIS IS TEMPORARY. The drq2 locator will go away when
the locator system has been changed to allow multiple
values per locator.
at the same time instead by using two different calls. This enables
it to check more easily if the combined mode is all right.
- Improve the error checking in audio.c.
- Add a new audio property, AUDIO_PROP_INDEPENDENT, show if the
play and record settings are independent.
- Fix some buglets in audio.c.
-put all early console / KGDB initialization into 1 exported function
(com_*_attach()) each, dont use global variables anymore
-use the passed tcflag_t for port settings instead of hardwiring 8N1
-at autoconfiguration attach time, decide if the attaching device is
already console / KGDB by comparing bus tag and base addr (cgd's wish)
-export a function "com_is_console()" for use by driver frontends for
this comparision
-delay setting of cn_tab->cn_dev until autoconfiguration attach
to get the minor number right
-delete unused comcnprobe() and comcninit()
-Separate KGDB port initialization and softc related stuff to allow
KGDB to be attached in early system startup, before autoconfiguration.
-Export the variables needed by md code to hand-craft bus tag/handle.
-Fix initialization to enable interrupt by line break.
-Call DDB/KGDB at line break (move DDB call from the softirq handler
to the hard handler because it should work without a tty attached too).
* Make it possible to use software assisted encodings that expand the
sample size.
* Use 16 bits per sample when emulating mulaw coding on the SB.
* Prepare for SB16 without CT1745 mixer.
- Change the way attach and open works to allow multiple audio
devices.
- Split the mulaw.c file into two to avoid dragging in mulaw
convertsion when they are not needed. Add 16 bit alaw/mulaw tables.
- Change the way audio properties are gotten.
- Recognize more versions os SoundBlaster.
- It is now possible to handle devices that want "looping" DMA,
e.g. the SoundBlaster correctly. The WSS and SB drivers use this.
To do this several new methods were introduced in audio_hw_if.
- Different silence handling (forced by previous change).
- The audio driver can now be mmap()-ed, but due to problems in
the VM system only for writing for now.
- The OSS (Linux) audio emulation takes advantage of some of the
new features.
renamed AUDIO_ENCODING_SLINEAR and AUDIO_ENCODING_LINEAR reverts to the
NetBSD 1.2 sematics. A kernel with COMPAT_12 defined will accept
AUDIO_ENCODING_LINEAR and treat it as before, without COMPAT_12 it
will be rejected.
