Subject: External port Multiplier Support in linux
Date: Fri, 10 Jul 2009 19:06:38 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4A5743E6.9000302@gmail.com> (raw)

Hi Jeff,

We have an external RAID Disk Array which is having a port multiplier 
and four HDD behind the port multiplier. The RAID box is connected to 
host via SATA interface. The port multiplier we are using is implemented 
in FPGA. The linux kernel 2.6.28 is not detecting the port multiplier 
and devices behind it.

By any chance linux kernel 2.6.28 supports external port multiplier?
Does linux automatically detect port multiplier during bootup?
Di i need to write driver for detecting the port multiplier?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Pinchu
