This release changes the driver to use the new 2.4 kernel PCI APIs. This
changes how all cards are detected. This adds some new ioctls for
adding/deleting volumes while the driver is online. Code to request/release the
io-region used by the cards was added. A small fix was made to the flush on
unload.
Version 2.4.4 uses the new 2.4 kernel DMA APIs to support IA64 machines with
over 3G of memory. These cards are only capable of doing 32-bit DMA so in a 64
bit system they will be using bounce buffers, so set your "swiotlb="
appropriately.
This release fixes a bug with revalidating the volume
after the partition table had been changed. With older
version updating, the partition table of d15 would make
d0 have a disk size of 0.
Besides a few of bug fixes, support for the Compaq Integrated Array Controller and the Compaq Smart 4200 Controllers have been added. Note: This driver no longer requires the DAC960 patch. This is patch has been generated against the 2.2.10 kernel. This version of the driver has already been accepted into the 2.2.10ac11 kernel.
