I'm doing my best to get my machines with ahc-supported cards in them testing your latest code. My -current machines are doing fine, however I've run into some trouble with a RELENG_4 backport. The improvements made to the driver in the new version changed the way it is built and so it's not as simple as just upgrading src/sys/dev/aic7xxx/*. I don't know what other files you touched in this round of commits that I need to update in order for the kernel build to complete. I appear to be running into dependency and/or include issues. I would appreciate any clues you could give me as to what other files to upgrade to get the new driver to build. Or perhaps, knowing the driver as intimately as you do, you could post a patchset for those of us with this hardware to test? Thanks for any help you can offer, Brandon D.
