Message-ID: <1115050656.31377.4.camel@driver> (raw)

The system's PCI bridge is broken, MEM Mapped IO does not work.
Only we can use IO mapped IO to access PCI devices(inb, outb) those are
behind the bridge.
I am looking for a LSI mega raid adapter (SCSI, SATA or SAS) that
supports IO mapped IO and has a linux driver for it.
