I will give this patch a try on the following hardware:
* Supermicro P4SCE running RELENG_7 i386
- Intel ICH5R -- 1 disk attached (OS disk)
- I can add a 2nd disk to this box no problem
- Intel MatrixRAID capability (RAID-0 or RAID-1)
- Hot-swap capable
* Supermicro PDSMi+ running RELENG_7 amd64
- Intel ICH7R -- 1 disk attached (OS disk)
- Promise TX4310 -- 4 disks attached (ZFS raidz1 pool)
- Hot-swap capable
I'll begin testing on the P4SCE box because I'm a little sensitive about
potential data loss on the PDSMi+ system. :-)
Also, does your patch include any fixes (intentional or inadvertent) for
Intel MatrixRAID? This has been a sore spot for FreeBSD for quite
some time, and I'm curious to know if that has been fixed.
P.S. -- Mandatory plug: don't forget about kern/127717 :-)
