Dear folks,
I have two LSI raid cards, one of which (SCSI 320-I) supports
64-bit DMA when 4GB+ of DDR is present and another which
does not (SATA 150-D) . Consquently I've disabled 64-bit
addressing for amr devices.
I would like to disable 64-bit addressing for the SATA card, but
permit it for the SCSI card. Is this possible?
You'd have to hack the driver perhaps to only disable 64-bit DMA for
certain
PCI IDs. It probably already does this?
The driver already had a table for determining 64bit DMA based on the PCI ID.
I guess there's a mistake in the table for this particular card. I think
that changing the following line to remove the AMR_ID_DO_SG64 flag will fix
the problem:
{0x1000, 0x1960, AMR_ID_QUARTZ | AMR_ID_DO_SG64 | AMR_ID_PROBE_SIG},
Actually, what's probably going on is that the driver is only looking at the
vendor and device id's, and is ignoring the subvendor and subdevice id's that
would give it a better clue on the exact hardware in use. Fixing the driver
to look at all 64bits of id info (and take into account wildcards where
needed) would be a good project, if anyone is interested.
Btw, I *HATE* the chip and card identifiers used in pciconf. Can we
change it to emit the standard (sub)vendor/(sub)device terminology?
