I've now been using a patched sata_sil driver for a while to support PCI

support for this upstream?

MMIO doesn't work at all?

I'm a bit reluctant to push this into mainline, particularly when I
feel that the sata_sil driver could still be updated to use only
32-bit MMIO transactions without much problem.

Hello, Kevin, Jeff.

IIRC, Kevin's platform can't do any MMIO.

Actually, this platform (XScale IXP425, big-endian) can do MMIO.  I have
an e100 PCI card on this board where the driver is using MMIO.  I also
have a Promise Ultra133 PCI card, but not sure if that driver is using
memory space or IO space.

The legacy driver uses strictly I/O space; libata one uses MMIO but I guess you haven't tried that one...

WBR, Sergei
