>Description:
I'm using IBM ServeRAID M1115 inside an IBM server using 8.3 + the update mfi driver inside 8-STABLE which recognizes the card as expected. 9.1-RC3 also recognizes the card as well.

I have another box with a M1015 which is virtually identical to M1115, with the difference that RAID 5 level is locked via a hardware, not a software token (M1115). Booting a box with 9.1-RC3 confirms this.

Since both adapters are based on the MegaRAID 9240 board whose sole difference to IBM branded cards is the firmware having RAID5 unlocked. We may safely add this to the manpage too?

Oh - and thanks to the people who put together this driver as it much expands the support for more recent MegaRAID based/derived cards with FreeBSD!
>How-To-Repeat:
Have a Server with either IBM ServeRAID M1115 or  M1015.
