For historical reason the 'strlcpy' implemention was directly pull in
into the emulation environment. There is, however, no reason not to
use the contrib sources in the usual fashion.
Issue #3929.
Besides updating to a newer version the update adds the AC97 ICH driver
and addresses shortcomings with the OpenBSD emulation environment:
* Fix 'delay(9)' implementation - it now properly uses 'us' as unit,
which results on faster initialization of the drivers.
* Fix LOG output that got lost during commit f23579532 and bring over
the printf implementation from dde_linux for more structured
printing.
* As said the driver now recognizes the AUICH devices. So far it was
only tested with the device model in VirtualBox where it produces
stuttering audio, investigating the cause is still ongoing.
Fixes#3641.
In addition to updating the contrib sources the driver now uses the
new Component API and will report the internal mixer state.
Reporting of the mixer state is enabled by adding the 'report_mixer'
attribute to the drivers configuration and setting its value to 'yes'.
The following snippets illustrates the format of the report:
!<mixer_state>
! <mixer field="inputs.beep" value="108"/>
! <mixer field="outputs.hp_sense" value="plugged"/>
! <mixer field="outputs.master" value="128,128"/>
! <mixer field="outputs.mic_sense" value="unplugged"/>
! <mixer field="outputs.spkr_muters" value="hp,mic"/>
!</mixer_state>
The mixer state may expose other mixer fields as well, depending on the
used sound card. The naming scheme of the attributes intentionally
matches the naming scheme of OpenBSD's mixerctl(1) program.
Each 'mixer' node can be used to configure the audio driver by using it
in its configuration, e.g.:
!<config report_mixer="yes">
! <mixer field="outputs.master" value="255,255"/>
!</config>
This configuration will set the output volume to the highest possible
value. Although it is now also possible to update the configuration
at run-time it should not be done while the driver is currently playing
or recording because it may provoke the generation of artefacts.
Fixes#1973.
These audio drivers enable support for Intel HD Audio (Azalia) and
Ensoniq AudioPCI (ES1370) compatible soundcards. They are ported
from OpenBSD 5.7.
Fixes#1498.
