I will be working on the EISA, VL, and ISA probes as well as the error recovery code this weekend, so it should be ready for prime-time RSN. The driver currently supports: Sync/Wide/Ultra transfers (as did the old driver) Tagged Queueing (New Feature) The following number of simultaneous transactions: 192 BT-948/958/958D 100 BT-946C/956C/956CD/747C/757C/757CD/445C 50 BT-545C/540CF 30 BT-747S/747D/757S/757D/445S/545S/542D/542B/742A (The old driver maxed out at 32 instead of the maximum supported by the particular card model.) The driver has been pretty much rewritten from scratch and is much more careful about determining the feature set availbable in each card and working around peculiarities in different firmware revisions. Once complete, the driver will also have the full complement of error recovery. -- Justin To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-scsi" in the body of the message
