Hi James, We downloaded the upstream aacraid sources from "git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi.git". Looks like Endian fix patches are not available. Can you please send us the current pointer to download sources? So that, we rebuild our Series 7 Async performance driver patch over them.
