Hi.
Since FreeBSD 9.0 we are successfully running on the new CAM-based ATA
stack, using only some controller drivers of old ata(4) by having
`options ATA_CAM` enabled in all kernels by default. I have a wish to
drop non-ATA_CAM ata(4) code, unused since that time from the head
branch to allow further ATA code cleanup.
Does any one here still uses legacy ATA stack (kernel explicitly built
without `options ATA_CAM`) for some reason, for example as workaround
for some regression?
Yes, I use the legacy ATA stack.
On 9.x or HEAD where new one is default?
Head.
Does anybody have good ideas why we should not drop
it now?
Because it works?
Any problems with new one?
Last time I tested the new one, and this was several months
ago, the system (a Dell Latitude D530 laptop) would not boot.
Probably we should just fix that. Any more info?
