Quick question: Does the kernel version 2.6.20 include support for Port
Multipliers?

A little background: I have a non-working system with SiI3124 and SiI3726
chips, and the manufacturer (NORCO) has sent me a link to your patch
libata-tj-2.6.17.4-20060710. Since you don't have a patch for 2.6.20, I
assume that functionality was merged into the main kernel. If not, how would
I go about patching 2.6.20 to add port multiplier support?

Thanks,
Richard.

Not yet.  I have patches against 2.6.22-rc6 in home-tj.org page tho.
Patches against 2.6.22 will be posted soon and I think it's gonna be
merged into 2.6.23 finally.

Thanks.
