Hi, Marvell SAS driver doesn't work on powerpc architecture due to big endian swap. I've tested it with the MV6440 chip. Here you can find the patch for Linux 2.6.39.1.

Hi Cedric ! Thanks for this. CC'ing linux-scsi. Note that it would probably have been better to use le32_to_cpu, which avoids the ifdef completely. Cheers, Ben.
/* Workaround: take some ATAPI devices for ATA */
if (((s[1] & 0x00FFFFFF) == 0x00EB1401) && (*(u8 *)&s[3] == 0x01))
s[1] = 0x00EB1401 | (*((u8 *)&s[1] + 3) & 0x10);
