I suppose you could do that with some patch massaging, though at the moment the patches are based off 2.6.20-rc4 + scsi-misc + scsi-rc-fixes + aic94xx-sas and will probably generate quite a bit of fuzz when applied against anything else. > http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/jejb/aic94xx-sas-2.6.git;a=summary > Or should I just download the the patches you mention and ...and?

All of those patches fix problems seen while testing/beating/exercising the aic94xx driver. > Also, when will this work land in the mainline kernel tree? Hopefully sooner than later. --D
