A search of the Freebsd hackers mailing list has a mail message
from Mike Smith saying that the 3DM utility was available
from 3ware, and to go to their site to get it.
I don't know whether you can download it from 3ware's site or not.
But there is a 3DM utility for FreeBSD at following url.

The key thing with patents is that they are meaningless until the
patent holder decides to protect them in court by challenging the
people who are supposedly in violation of the patent. If a patent
holder decides to go after you, it can be costly even if you win.

hi,
Does any one know how to perform user-level upcalls
from kernel TCP/IP stack? If I wanted to get an upcall every time a data packet

No, it's random. nfsiods handle mainly read-ahead requests to try to
decouple the RPC latency from other processes.
