You have to generate a patch for 8-current and send it to
multimedia@FreeBSD.org for review. There may be some improvement
suggestions or bug reports then. Fix the issues and generate a new
patch. When there are no issues anymore, send a PR (problem report)
with your patch. If you are lucky, a committer will take care of the
PR (or he may already approach you before you send the PR).
Bye,
Alexander.

Make the source code available somewhere and hopefully someone (usually
ariff@ or mav@) with knowledge about the sound subsystem will review it.
Just make sure that you follow our usual style(9) guidelines etc etc.

Re: Re: Hardware support for AMD Geode CS5536 audio?
To All,
I finally have a working CS5536 audio driver for FreeBSD 6.2. The filename is snd_amd5536.ko and I will be making it available shortly. I have been using an ALIX-1C motherboard for my testing. Anyone have other hardware that they want to test it on?
Another question. How does one get the FreeBSD people to put this driver into their OS?
