===Sound Core===
: - add empty kthread wrappers
:
: Add empty wrappers for the kthread functions to allow compilation to
: succeed. There is no implementation, so one cannot actually use them.
: - release 1.0.15rc3
: - Disable link with ac97_bus driver for older kernels
:
: The older kernels have no proper support of ac97_bus driver, so let's
: simply disable it.
: - PC-Speaker driver update
:
: - PCSP_HOOK is no longer needed, removed.
: The driver fully moved to hrtimers and the kernel patch is now optional.
: - Depend on EXPERIMENTAL in preparation to submit this upstream.
: - Remove the built-in software volume control in favour of softvol.

: Signed-off-by: Stas Sergeev <stsp@aknet.ru>
===ALSA Core===
: - add empty kthread wrappers
:
: Add empty wrappers for the kthread functions to allow compilation to
: succeed. There is no implementation, so one cannot actually use them.
: - change return type of pci_save/restore_state wrappers
:
: Change the return type of pci_save/restore_state() from void to int
: because it is actually checked in a driver.
===AC97 Codec===
: - Disable link with ac97_bus driver for older kernels
:
: The older kernels have no proper support of ac97_bus driver, so let's
: simply disable it.
: - Add default values for power-saving as Kconfig options
:
: Added CONFIG_SND_AC97_POWER_SAVE_DEFAULT and CONFIG_SND_HDA_POWER_SAVE_DEFAULT
: Kconfig options as the default values for power-saving mode of AC97 and
: HD-audio drivers, respectively.
: - ac97: YMF743 missing controls support (1/2)
:
: These patches enable some YMF743 controls (Tone/3D/IEC958) that won't
: be detected with the current version of ALSA.
:
: The first one contains only cosmetic changes to share a few
: YMF753-specific symbols with YMF743.
:
: Signed-off-by: Keita Maehara <maehara@debian.org>
: - ac97: YMF743 missing controls support (2/2)
:
: These patches enable a few YMF743 controls (Tone/3D/IEC958) that won't
: be detected with the current version of ALSA.
:
: The second one contains following changes:
:
: - A chip-specific SPDIF support for YMF743 (It doesn't have AC97
: standard SPDIF registers seen on YMF753).
:
: - The implementation for "IEC958 Playback Source" and "IEC958 Mute"
: are identical to the ones for YMF753. But there is no "IEC958 Output
: Pin" for YMF743.

===AD1848 driver===
: - ad1848_lib: waiting loops done after cs4231_lib
:
: This patch fixes ad1848_lib waiting loops to be the same as in the cs4231_lib.
:
: Signed-off-by: Krzysztof Helt <krzysztof.h1@wp.pl>
: Acked-by: Rene Herman <rene.herman@gmail.com>
: - ad1848: Fix msleep while atomic
:
: Simplest fix.
:
: Signed-off-by: Trent Piepho <xyzzy@speakeasy.org>
: Acked-by: Rene Herman <rene.herman@gmail.com>
: - ad1848: simplify MCE down code
:
: The polling loop to check for ACI to go down was more convoluted than it
: needed to be. New loop should be more efficient and it is a lot simpler. The
: old loop checked for a timeout before checking for ACI down, which could
: result in an erroneous timeout. It's only a failure if the timeout expires
: _and_ ACI is still high. There is nothing wrong with the timeout expiring
: while the task is sleeping if ACI went low.
:
: A polling loop to check for the device to leaving INIT mode is removed. The
: device must have already left init for the previous ACI loop to have finished.

===ALSA sequencer===
: - schedule_timeout() fix for core/seq/seq_instr.c
:
: Replace schedule_timeout() with schedule_timeout_uninterruptible()
: to avoid signals in loop.
:
: Signed-off-by: Rene Herman <rene.herman@gmail.com>
===Asihpi driver===
: - alsa-driver: use schedule_timeout_{,un}interruptible.
:
: Replace 3 open-coded implementations of schedule_timout_{,un}interruptible
: and use {u,m}secs_to_jiffies.
:
: Signed-off-by: Rene Herman <rene.herman@gmail.com>
===BT87x driver===
: - bt87x: fix detection of generic boards
:
: Add an "unknown" board type so that it is possible to differentiate
: between unknown and generic boards.
===CMI8788 driver===
: - cmi8788: prevent autoloading
:
: The snd-cmi8788 driver is too buggy to allow it to load automatically,
: so add a module parameter that must be set explicitly before it loads.
===CMIPCI driver===
: - cmipci: fix version 37 detection
:
: Use the proper value for the bit that identifies chip version 37.
: - cmipci: update register definitions
:
: Update comments for many register symbols, add some new register
: symbols, and rename a few ones.
: - cmipci: show more registers in proc file
:
: Show a dump of all registers in the 0x00-0x27 and 0x90-0x93 ranges in
: the "cmipci" proc file.
: - cmipci: reset the chip when initializing
:
: When the chip is initialized, reset it.
: - cmipci: initialize 0x90 registers
:
: Initialize the registers at 0x90 and 0x91 with some undocumented values.
: - cmipci: allow 96 kHz playback on non-multichannel rear
:
: Move the code that enables 96 kHz out of the if() that checks for
: availability of both DMA channels so that it is enabled even when
: another stream is playing on the front channels.
: - cmipci: remove 5.0 format
:
: Disallow playback of five channels because the hardware does not support
: it (or nobody knows how to do it).
: - cmipci: reorganize set_dac_channels()
:
: By reorganizing the code that sets the CHB3DxC bits we can not only
: simplify this code but also fix the bug where the CHB3D8C bit was not
: reset when playing a stereo stream after a 7.1 stream.
: - cmipci: fix lookup of double rates
:
: When using one of the double sampling rates, use half the sample rate to
: look up in the rates[] table, otherwise we stumble over the BUG().
: - cmipci: clean up struct cmipci_pcm
:
: Remove some unused field from the struct cmipci_pcm, and change the type
: of some others to save some space.
: - cmipci: fix distortion on rear channels
:
: When playing multichannel data, the rear channels can get distorted if
: the last sample of the last played stereo stream was not zero. To avoid
: this, add a hack to play a few silence samples after the stream is
: stopped.
===Documentation===
: - sc6000: documentation fix

===I2C cs8427===
: - Workaround for invalid signature read of CS8427
:
: Reading the signature of CS8427 over SPI/I2C fails on some devices
: by mysterious reason. In most cases, however, it succeeds at the
: sequential read. So, let's give a second chance to check the signature
: again.
===MSND driver===

===Opti9xx drivers===
: - opti9xx: adjust OPL3 FM resource value
:
: The OPTi ISA-PnP chips advertise their OPL4 base at 0x380 (to 0x3f0) through
: pnp and put their on-chip OPL3 at +8. The driver assumes the provided
: value is the ALBase (OPL3 address) though and checks for an OPL4 at -8,
: which means that simply adding 8 to the pnp provides value works to fix
: detection of both OPL3 and OPL4.
:
: Problem spotted on 931 and 933 by Krzysztof Helt and confirmed on 924 and
: 925 (together all OPTi ISA-PnP chips) by me.
