Updates to the Silicon Image and ServerWorks drivers. News: * will freeze current codebase as libata 1.0, without queueing support. libata 2.x development has already begun, and will support queueing, sata2, and will build upon the existing codebase. * ServerWorks seems stable, will remove 'beta' label soon Notes: * Silicon Image support is still considered to be unstable. drivers/ide's siimage.c is preferred. * Silicon Image users with Seagate SATA, particularly if you know if you have the "mod15write" bug, should make sure that the driver is properly applying the errata fix. Patch for 2.4.x: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/jgarzik/libata/2.4.25-pre4-libata1.patch.bz2 Patch for 2.6.x: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/jgarzik/libata/2.6.1-bk2-libata1.patch.bz2 BK repositories: bk://gkernel.bkbits.net/libata-2.[45] Changelog versus 2.6.x mainline attached.
