It works in 3.4, but not in 4.0 (and, I guess, 5.0).

pthread.h and unistd.h
Hi. I recently updated from -stable to -current. I notice now that pthread.h relies on #defines that are in unistd.h; so in order to use pthread_attr_setscope you have to include unistd.h before pthread.h. Is this standard behaviour? I'm working with MySQL, and unistd.h is included after pthread.h; should I have that code changed, or should FreeBSD somehow compensate for this?

ViBRA16X and /dev/dsp
Hi. I'm still trying to figure out why /dev/dsp isn't working with
my ViBRA16X card. I wrote a little program to test the device. The
trouble is, I don't know what I'm doing and have not found much in
the way of documentation. I'm hoping someone can give me a hint, so
I can figure out what's going wrong.
If I'm way off topic and just annoying everyone, please let me know
and I'll just shut up until either I learn more or someone else deals
with it. :)
Being optimistic, here's my program:
#include sys/ioctl.h
#include sys/soundcard.h
#include unistd.h
#include fcntl.h
#include stdlib.h
#include stdio.h
#include string.h
#define BUFSZ 1024
int
main()
{
int audio_fd;
unsigned char audio_buf[BUFSZ];
int format = AFMT_U8;
int speed = 8000;
ssize_t written;
if ((audio_fd = open("/dev/dsp", O_WRONLY, 0)) == -1) {
perror("/dev/dsp");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
if (ioctl(audio_fd, SNDCTL_DSP_SETFMT, format) == -1) {
perror("SETFMT");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
if (format != AFMT_U8) {
fprintf(stderr, "AFMT_U8 is unsupported (try 0x%02x)\n", format);
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
if (ioctl(audio_fd, SNDCTL_DSP_SPEED, speed) == -1) {
perror("SPEED");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
if (speed != 8000)
fprintf(stderr, "warning: speed == %d\n", speed);
/* let's give this a shot! */
/* OK, so this doesn't seem to be doing what I want - I'm trying to
just play some tone - anything - to test if the thing is working
or not. I was hoping this simple thing might be close enough to
a sound file that it would play something. But obviously I'm
being naive.
What should I put into the buffer to get it to play? Do I need
to write the buffer many times to the device in order to hear
anything? */
memset(audio_buf, 0xaa, BUFSZ);
fprintf(stderr, "getting ready to write to the device\n");
written = write(audio_fd, audio_buf, BUFSZ);
if (written != BUFSZ)
fprintf(stderr, "only wrote %d of %d bytes\n", written, BUFSZ);
fprintf(stderr, "getting ready to close the device\n");
close(audio_fd);
fprintf(stderr, "Done.\n");
return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
When I run the program, I hear a pop; just as if I'd done
$ echo "foo" /dev/dsp; but I hear nothing that sounds like a tone.
There are no warnings printed, though.
Thanks for any help,
Tim

sbc and ViBRA16X - dsp device not working
Hi. I sent this a few days ago and haven't received any response. Is there anything I can do to get closer to this problem, or provide more useful information to someone who might know what the problem is? More info: if I do: $ mixer pcm 100:100 $ echo "foo" /dev/dsp then I hear a loud pop. If I do: $ mixer pcm 5:5 $ echo "foo" /dev/dsp then the pop is very soft. Also, XMMS isn't hanging anymore. All I've changed is I've rebooted a few times. When I try to play an mp3, it's progress thumb blinks. If I drag the progress thumb to the middle of a song, it pops. But it won't play. Is there a way I can write a test program to see what is happening? What man pages should I look at? The pcm and sbc man pages don't really say anything, once you've got your device recognized.

Bus error in isatty() from /usr/lib/libc.so.3
Hello. I have a reproducable problem which gdb says is ending up at
0x2818d862 in isatty() from /usr/lib/libc.so.3. A full back trace is
below. If this is a problem in FreeBSD, I'm very glad to do any
experiments that might be helpful. If it's a problem somewhere else,
any pointers on what I might do next would be great.
Thanks,
Tim
How to repeat:
I installed MySQL 3.23.2, then DBI-1.11. I compiled
Msql-Mysql-modules-1.2200, and ran the test suite. All but the first
test dumped core, all with this same error.
This is with -CURRENT as of Aug 10 @ 7AM (GMT). I did a complete
make buildworld; make installworld;, then I recompiled the kernel.
