Putting it into the examples directory instead of having it on the

needs to be changed to point to the examples directory then).
And you should clarify what kind of improvements are valid for your
SoC work. Somehow I doubt that adding shiny new features (like hps
suggested) is part of the goal for your work. I think it's more like
bringing existing drivers up-to-par with currently available generic
driver interfaces, isn't it?
I also think examples for suspend/resume stuff should be added.
/sys/dev/sound/pci/atiixp.c has suspend and resume methods if you want
an example.
You could also review the locking, as it changed a little bit
recently, I think.
Apart from the atiixp driver the envy42, emu10kx and HDA drivers can
also serve as examples for what is the most current in the sound
subsystem in FreeBSD. Maybe you can gain some more hints from them (I
think the template is not very up-to-date compared to them).
The new mixer interface is not used yet in the drivers, so we don't
have examples at all for them. You could ask [EMAIL PROTECTED] (or on
multimedia@) about it.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] (or multimedia@) can maybe help if you have some
questions regarding the drivers in the tree (maybe Ariff will answer
to your initial question anyway).
Bye,
Alexander.

Made another update:
http://loafier.sixbit.org/template.c
- removed wierd garbage characters around the initcd function
- made names of read and write macros consistent w/ other functions
- fixed invocation of snd_mtxcreate() to include name string
I also copied in some code from the atiixp drivers's suspend/resume
functions for handling the play and record channels, and noticed the use
of pci_set_powerstate().
