Hi,
I've been hacking on a Silicon Image 3124, 3132, 3531 driver. My
implementation relies on ata(4), like ahcisata(4). But this
may not be the best all-around solution.
Direct your attention now to OpenBSD's ahci(4), sili(4), and atascsi(4).
They support NCQ and ATAPI already. On the other hand, I'm not sure if
this would allow for SMART and whatnot to be used.
Anyone think porting these would be a good idea?
Or, would writing a proper SATA framework be much better?
