["Jared D. McNeill" <jmcneill%netbsd.org@localhost>]

Module Name:    src
Committed By:   jmcneill
Date:           Sun Nov 11 17:37:46 UTC 2007

Modified Files:
        src/sys/conf: files majors
Added Files:
        src/sys/dev/pad: files.pad pad.c

Log Message:
Add pseudo audio device driver. With this pseudo-device, audio played back
via the standard audio interfaces is redirected back to userland as raw
PCM data on /dev/padN.

One example usage is to stream audio to an AirTunes compatible device using
rtunes (http://www.nazgul.ch/dev_rtunes.html), ie:

        $ rtunes - < /dev/pad0
        $ mpg123 -a /dev/sound1 blah.mp3

Another option is to capture audio output from eg. Real Player, by simply
instructing Real Player to output to /dev/sound1, and running:

        $ cat /dev/pad0 > blah.pcm
