- minor comment/debug clean ups.
fixes problems attempting to read or write from the right midi(4)
device using the sequencer(4) device when one or more of the
non-final devices fails to open with midiseq_open().
midi specific:
- add reference counting for midi operations, and ensure that
detach waits for other threads to complete before tearing
down the device completely.
- in detach, halt midi callouts before destroying them
- re-check sc->dying after sleeping in midiread()
- in real_writebytes(), make sure we're open and not dying
- make sure we drop the interrupt lock before calling any code
that may want to check thread locks. this is now safe due to
the above changes.
sequencer specific:
- avoid caching the midi softc in the sequencer softc. instead,
every time we want to use it, look it up again and make sure
it still exists.
this fixes various crashes i've seen in the usb midi code when
detaching the umidi while it is active.
designated initializers.
I have not built every extant kernel so I have probably broken at
least one build; however I've also found and fixed some wrong
cdevsw/bdevsw entries so even if so I think we come out ahead.
- change midi_attach() to omit the 'parent' arg (there are
only two callers of this and it is not used)
- change midisyn_attach() to midisyn_init(), so not needing a midi_softc,
and fix the midi_pcppi driver to set hw_if and hw_hdl directly in
its midi_softc before calling midi_attach()
- add a device_t to opl_softc structure, change opl drivers to store
the device 'self' in opl_softc and fix opl_attach() to use this
opl_softc->dev field directly rather than a field in an otherwise
unused midi_softc
- remove unnecessary midi_softc from opl and cms drivers (child device
provides that)

the original ad-audiomp branch notes:
Add MP locking to the audio drivers.
Making the audio drivers MP safe is necessary before efforts
can be made to make the VM system MP safe.
The are two locks per device instance, an ISR lock and
a character device lock. The ISR lock replaces calls to
splaudio()/splx(), and will be held across calls to device
methods which were called at splaudio() before (e.g.
trigger_output). The character device lock is held across
calls to nearly all of the methods, excluding some only
used for initialization, e.g. get_locks.
Welcome to 5.99.57.
proclist_mutex and proclist_lock into a single adaptive mutex (proc_lock).
Implications:
- Inspecting process state requires thread context, so signals can no longer
be sent from a hardware interrupt handler. Signal activity must be
deferred to a soft interrupt or kthread.
- As the proc state locking is simplified, it's now safe to take exit()
and wait() out from under kernel_lock.
- The system spends less time at IPL_SCHED, and there is less lock activity.
- Add a lot of missing selinit() and seldestroy() calls.
- Merge selwakeup() and selnotify() calls into a single selnotify().
- Add an additional 'events' argument to selnotify() call. It will
indicate which event (POLL_IN, POLL_OUT, etc) happen. If unknown,
zero may be used.
Note: please pass appropriate value of 'events' where possible.

"struct proc *" with "struct lwp *" in various function prototypes, pass
the lwp through and use l_proc to get the process pointer when needed.

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)

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.
