[ALSA] HDA/Realtek: multiple input mux definitions and pin mode additions
The following patch relative to CVS from
20060324 adds the following
features to the Realtek HDA codec.
1) Define two new pin modes: ALC_PIN_DIR_IN_NOMICBIAS and
ALC_PIN_DIR_INOUT_NOMICBIAS. These can be used with jack mode switch
definitions in mixers to prevent the user being offered the mic bias
options if the hardware doesn't support it.
2) Add the ability to have different input mux definitions for different
ADCs. This is needed because the ALC260 chip uses different mux layouts
for the two onboard ADCs. A new field (num_mux_defs) was added to the
alc_spec and alc_config_preset structures to support this.
3) Adjust numerous comments to make them consistent with the above changes.
4) Utilise the new multi-mux definition functionality for the ALC260 fujitsu
model to allow recording of the mixer output.
5) Utilise the new multi-mux definition functionality for the ALC260 test
model to make the mux selections a little less confusing.
6) Allow the headphone jack of the ALC260 acer model to be retasked in
the mixer.
6) Utilise the new multi-mux definition functionality for the ALC260 acer
model to give access to the mixer output and the retasked headphone
jack.
At this stage the *_NOMICBIAS modes are not used. We have reports that the
"Line" jack of at least some Acer models doesn't pass the bias out, and we
also know that NIDs 0x0f and 0x10 don't seem to accept the mic bias requests
at all. However, I feel we need to collect more evidence on both counts
before committing to the use of *_NOMICBIAS. In the case of the Acers, it's
not clear whether this issue (probably caused by the inclusion of DC
blocking capacitors) affects all Acer models or just a small number. With
the issue with NIDs 0x0f and 0x10 it's unclear whether this is a hardware
bug which will be addressed in later chip revisions or if it's an
intentional restriction. The datasheet makes no mention of the restriction
so at this stage I'm inclined to consider it a hardware bug. Comments in
the source reflect this reasoning.
On a similar theme, the headphone jack of the Fujitsu S7020 also doesn't
appear to pass mic bias voltage. I'm still investigating this however.
With the ability to retask the headphone jack, owners of ALC260-based Acer
laptops should now be able to record 4 channels of audio if they desire. The
multiple mux definitions allow this jack to be presented from both ADCs
(since this mux input is one of those which differs between the muxes).
This patch has been tested on a Fujitsu S7020 laptop and appears to behave
itself both for the "test" and "fujitsu" models. Definitions using only a
single mux specification also work. Other ALC chips should be fine but I
cannot test these myself. The "auto" modes should also continue to function
but again I have not verified this.

[ALSA] AdLib FM card driver
Attached you'll find an ALSA driver for AdLib FM cards. An AdLib card is
just an OPL2, which was already supported by sound/drivers/opl3, so only
very minimal bus-glue is needed. The patch applies cleanly to both
2.6.16 and 2.6.16-mm1.
The driver has been tested with an actual ancient 8-bit ISA AdLib card
and works fine. It also works fine for an OPL3 {,emulation} as still
found on many ISA soundcards but given that AdLib cards don't have their
own mixer, upping the volume from 0 might be a problem without the card
driver already loaded and driving the OPL3.

This adds support for the sys_splice system call. Using a pipe as a

From the splice.c comments:
"splice": joining two ropes together by interweaving their strands.
This is the "extended pipe" functionality, where a pipe is used as
an arbitrary in-memory buffer. Think of a pipe as a small kernel
buffer that you can use to transfer data from one end to the other.
The traditional unix read/write is extended with a "splice()" operation
that transfers data buffers to or from a pipe buffer.
Named by Larry McVoy, original implementation from Linus, extended by
Jens to support splicing to files and fixing the initial implementation
bugs.

[PATCH] sata_mv: three bug fixes
(1) A DMA transfer size of 0x10000 was not being written
as 0x0000 in the PRDs. Fixed.
(1) The DEV_IRQ interrupt cause bit happens spuriously
during EDMA operation, and was not being ignored by the driver.
This led to various "drive busy" errors being reported,
with associated unpredictable behaviour. Fixed.
(2) If a SATA or PCI interrupt was received with no outstanding
command, the interrupt handler still attempted to invoke
ata_qc_complete(), triggering assert()/BUG_ON() behaviour
elsewhere in libata. Fixed.
The driver still has issues with confusion after error-recovery,
but should now be reliable in the absence of drive errors.
I will be looking more into the error-handling bugs next.

Filter cable in core
This provides the needed framework to support all the mode rules found
in the PATA world. The simplex filter deals with 'to spec' simplex DMA
systems found in older chips. The cable filter avoids duplicating the
same rules in each chip driver with PATA. Finally the mode filter is
neccessary because drive/chip combinations have errata that forbid
certain modes with some drives or types of ATA object.
Drive speed setup remains per channel for now and the filters now use
the framework Tejun put into place which cleans them up a lot from the
older libata-pata patches.
