- Clarify the data flows. For SB Live! I fixed only the most obvious
point ("from" vs. "for").
- Mention 7.1 side channels on Audigy.
- Be unspecific about the output DACs on Audigy, as lots of variants
actually exist (see emu_chip_details table).

Let the MANUALS/PATENTS section of the former simply refer to the latter

Add documentation for the new Virtual PCM Test Driver. It covers all
possible usage cases: errors and delay injections, random and
pattern-based data generation, playback and ioctl redefinition
functionalities testing.
We have a lot of different virtual media drivers, which can be used for
testing of the userspace applications and media subsystem middle layer.
However, all of them are aimed at testing the video functionality and
simulating the video devices. For audio devices we have only snd-dummy
module, which is good in simulating the correct behavior of an ALSA device.
I decided to write a tool, which would help to test the userspace ALSA
programs (and the PCM middle layer as well) under unusual circumstances
to figure out how they would behave. So I came up with this Virtual PCM
Test Driver.
This new Virtual PCM Test Driver has several features which can be useful
during the userspace ALSA applications testing/fuzzing, or testing/fuzzing
of the PCM middle layer. Not all of them can be implemented using the
existing virtual drivers (like dummy or loopback). Here is what can this
driver do:
- Simulate both capture and playback processes
- Check the playback stream for containing the looped pattern
- Generate random or pattern-based capture data
- Inject delays into the playback and capturing processes
- Inject errors during the PCM callbacks
Also, this driver can check the playback stream for containing the
predefined pattern, which is used in the corresponding selftest to check
the PCM middle layer data transferring functionality. Additionally, this
driver redefines the default RESET ioctl, and the selftest covers this PCM
API functionality as well.
The driver supports both interleaved and non-interleaved access modes, and
have separate pattern buffers for each channel. The driver supports up to
4 channels and up to 8 substreams.

The mixer structures were filled in two places: on driver init, and when
the devices are opened. The latter made the former pointless, so we
remove the former. This implies that mixer dumps may now return all
zeroes, which is OK, as restoring them is meaningless as well.
Things were even weirder for the (generally unused) secondary sends:
Some of the initialization loops were forgotten when support for Audigy
was added, thus creating the technically illegal state of multiple sends
being routed to the same FX accumulator (though it apparently doesn't
matter when the amount is zero).
The global multi-channel init used some rather bizarre values for the
secondary sends, and the init on open actually forgot to re-initialize
them. We now use a not really more useful, but simpler formula.
The direct register init was also bogus. This doesn't really matter, as
the value is overwritten when a voice comes into use, but still.

The voice volume is a raw fractional multiplier that can't actually
represent 1.0. To still enable real pass-through, we now set the volume
to 0.5 (which results in no loss of precision, as the FX bus provides
fractional values) and scale up the samples in DSP code.
To maintain backwards compatibility with existing configuration files,
we rescale the values in the mixer controls. The range is extended
upwards from 0xffff to 0x1fffd, which actually introduces the
possibility of specifying an amplification.
There is still a minor incompatibility with user space, namely if
someone loaded custom DSP code. They'll just get half the volume, so
this doesn't seem like a big deal.

Rationale:
Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.
Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:
If not .svg:
For each line:
If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
If neither `\bgnu\.org/license`, nor `\bmozilla\.org/MPL\b`:
If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
return 200 OK and serve the same content:
Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

The script is old and produce some warnings and errors, because
it lacks including stdlib.h and io.h is at sys/io.h.
Fix it to run with the tools found on modern Linux distros.
