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 ?
I believe the openSUSE 10.2 kernel will work with openSUSE 10.1 userland tools. Therefore I would get the openSUSE 10.2 kernel (2.6.18 based) and try that. If you then want to apply even more patches you should not have too much trouble applying patches targetting 2.6.18 http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.2/repo/src-oss/suse/src/kernel-source-2.6.18.2-34.src.rpm Greg -- Greg Freemyer The Norcross Group Forensics for the 21st Century - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
