Those are probably the best references available.  Other than that, there
are a number of folks who have done CAM drivers, and I'm sure they would be
willing to give you some advice.  (Justin Gibbs, Matt Jacob, Warner Losh,
Nicolas Souchu, Nick Hibma, Gerard Roudier and Luoqi Chen have all done CAM
HBA drivers, so there's no shortage of people with some knowledge on the
subject.)

If you're willing to document your process, I'm sure that would be helpful
to other folks.  It might fit well in the FreeBSD handbook.

Also, what driver are you going to port?  It might be a good idea to tell
someone about it so we can avoid any duplicate efforts.
