This new driver version (sym-1.4.0-20000322) uses the DMA 
mapping interface introduced in FreeBSD-4.0. The driver is 
now full up-to-date for FreeBSD-5.0.

ftp://ftp.tux.org/pub/roudier/drivers/freebsd/experimental/sym-1.4.0-20000322.tar.gz
(Modulo mistakes in the URL:))

Another significant change in this driver version applies 
to the checking of the data direction. The driver is now 
able to check against the expected data direction in any 
circumstances (even from SCRIPTS) and will not hang either
if direction is wrong at the start of the IO, or if for 
some weird reason, the direction changes during the IO.

Even if the code looks just perfect to me :), some additionnal 
testings are needed prior to committing this new driver 
version to the kernel repository.

sym-1.4.0-20000322 is still an experimental driver version.
I have tried it under 4.0, but the driver should also be ok 
for -current (5.0 development).

Thanks, in advance, for trying this new driver version and 
reporting me problems, if any.

Gérard.
