I've been planning on doing some testing with PMP's and noticed that sata_sil does not support PMP. Is that a hardware limitation or just that nobody has implemented it in the driver yet ?

Well, it doesn't support hardware context switching. It probably supports PMP "the slow way" (one PMP-attached device at a time)

I doubt 3112 can do pmp even "the slow way". It doesn't expose FIS interface nor does it have PMP field in its SControl register. It just can't generate PMP-aware FIS.
