Have you tried applying that passthru patch to the 2.4.31 sources?
I attempted to use http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/jgarzik/libata/2.6.13-rc6-git10-libata1.patch.bz2 against 2.4.31 but several portions of the patch were rejected and one file (drivers/scsi/Kconfig) doesn't exist at all.
Hmmm...that patch seems to cover all the pending libata development stuff, not just passthru/SMART. I thought Jeff had a separate patch available for that at one time, but I don't see it ATM... You probably can tease such a patch out of git...will have to investigate... John -- John W. Linville linville@tuxdriver.com
