Hi Tejun, I have tested your patches with the vanilla 2.6.18.1 - Kernel and it works like a charm. I have spent hours of copying, reading and deleting data to a software-raid-5 on a Machine with Mainboard: Elitegroup K8T890-A Prozessor: Athlon64 Addonics 5X1 eSATA Port Multiplier (PM) (AD5SAPM-E) Addonics SATA-Controller PCIe-Card ADSA3GPX1-2E System: openSuse 10.1 Because Suse uses a patched kernel I cannot apply your patch to the standard-kernel from the openSUSE-Distribution. As far as I can see (I'm not a programmer), the driver-sources are already in the ata-directory of the kernel, so the patch generates a lot of errors. Could give any advice (on your wiki), how to deal with this ? -- Dr.med. Kasimir Müller Oberarzt Tel.: 07071 - 29 - 86592 Funk : 151 - 8154 Klinik für Allgemeine, Viszeral- u.
