First you may try how your IDE adapter behaves under load. Older SiI chips used to work fine for light load but refused to work under load (in terms of write operations). I don't know if this is still true for these newer chips. For the commit: 1) I don't have a commit bit, but we may get that in (by the help of somebody else) 2) we're already in a freeze situation - don't expect that to be in -STABLE before 7.1-RELEASE (also it needs to be in HEAD first and then may get MFC'd). Thanks for reporting! Volker PS: Can you please file a PR with my patch attached? I'm missing some time to do that (this way, the change doesn't get lost).
