harmony —
harmony* at gsc?
audio* at harmony?
harmony device uses the Crystal Semiconductor CS4215
  16-Bit Multimedia Audio Codec or Analog Devices AD1849 SoundPort(R) Stereo
  Codec chip to implement the audio device interface described in
  audio(4). This device is found
  on most HP PA-RISC workstations. The harmony has a
  maximum precision of 16 bits and has a stereo input and stereo output.
On HP 9000/712 models harmony also
    provides two additional channels for an add-on card with two fax/voice
    modems.
One of the hardware registers reflects the state of the CHI bus that is used to communicate with the codec and thus being sampled at a low accuracy secondary frequency (such as timeout(9)) produces poor quality random bit stream that is fed into the entropy pool of rnd(4).

  OpenBSD 3.3. It was ported to NetBSD
  1.6 by Chuck Silvers.
