As long as I'm asking questions . . . does anyone know why the uda50 driver is not integrated into the uba device drivers (that is, why it avoids ubago and so forth)? I know (think?) that the way it is now means that I/O requests are serviced in a different order than they would be if I/O were to go through ubago, and that the behaviour on 750s is different (uda.c allocates on BDP & set of map registers and keeps using it until the controller is done doing transfers on all drives). Is there a good reason for all this? It doesn't seem to be a problem with up* type drives. -- (This mind accidently left blank.)
