Hello,

what is needed to revive the socal driver in Linux?

As I understand, it worked some time ago with some version of firmware 
that had to be cut from a Solaris patch. Then after some other changes 
in Linux it stopped working and nobody investigated until it was thrown 
out. Was there something more? I seem to remember that not all firmware 
versions worked (and the latest didn't work either), but that might have 
been soc, not socal.

What would the soft FC stack need - rewrite to use the scsi transport 
layer? What would such arewrite mean?

What experience is needed to do that? We are considering doing it here 
with a interested stundent, Kait Elbe (CC-d).
