This is the sync up with the canonical definition of the sound
protocol in Xen:
1. Protocol version was referenced in the protocol description,
but missed its definition. Fixed by adding a constant
for current protocol version.
2. Some of the request descriptions have "reserved" fields
missed: fixed by adding corresponding entries.
3. Extend the size of the requests and responses to 64 octets.
Bump protocol version to 2.
4. Add explicit back and front synchronization
In order to provide explicit synchronization between backend and
frontend the following changes are introduced in the protocol:
- add new ring buffer for sending asynchronous events from
backend to frontend to report number of bytes played by the
frontend (XENSND_EVT_CUR_POS)
- introduce trigger events for playback control: start/stop/pause/resume
- add "req-" prefix to event-channel and ring-ref to unify naming
of the Xen event channels for requests and events
5. Add explicit back and front parameter negotiation
In order to provide explicit stream parameter negotiation between
backend and frontend the following changes are introduced in the protocol:
add XENSND_OP_HW_PARAM_QUERY request to read/update
configuration space for the parameters given: request passes
desired parameter's intervals/masks and the response to this request
returns allowed min/max intervals/masks to be used.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
