Not as I understand it, but this is rather useful information. The SI does have some ties for PIO mode but not UDMA clocking. This is most interesting information. The max_kb_per thing should be irrelevant btw. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 10+ messages in thread

Seagate and Silicon Image are the only two player (well intel now) who did their own PHY. They did not use the Marvel pairs. It is a function of possible ECC on the wire and the relation to the segments in the PIO or SG operations. It is a FIFO issue based on 512byte boundaries being breached on corner cases. The data on the wire is in 8K units. It is a 7.5K + 0.5K corner case. max_kb_per_request:15 == 7.5K This prevents this corner case until I can code the proper special case SG table. drive->id->hwconfig |= 0x6000; Is needed to fake the driver for device side cable detect. There are several issues and I have not had time to keep up. I have to do other business ventures because being an independent developer/contract no longer can pay the bills. More proof that free drivers and free software still has a cost to somebody. Cheers, On 3 Jun 2003, Alan Cox wrote: > On Maw, 2003-06-03 at 23:48, Mauk van der Laan wrote: > > He!

I'll go bug SI as I've already got the needed hooks in the 2.4 core code (although not 2.5 since the taskfile stuff needs to get resolved first).
