I reviewed and refreshed libata-dev.git#new-eh, now renamed to #sx4.

Several bugs and missing pieces in the new-EH conversion were addressed
(often by copying highly similar code from sata_promise, a highly
similar chip)

The only thing left is some "it still works" testing... any takers?


Hi Jeff

I have SX4000 card, it is based on the same PDC20621 chip, but has PATA ports
(without PATA-SATA bridges).
Can I help?

I am newbie here, but I will try to modify the driver to support PATA
card as well
and test your patch.

It's unknown how well, or what is needed, to support the SX4000. You are welcome to dive in and figure out what is needed, but you'd be asking questions to which we wouldn't have answers.

Jeff
