CREDITS

This work was made possible by

Red Hat Software
Funding for the Building #3 part of the project

Symbios Logic (Now LSI)
Host adapters, hints, known to work platforms when I hit
compatibility problems

BoxHill Corporation
Loan of initial FibreChannel disk array used for development work.

European Comission
Funding the work done by the University of Helsinki

SysKonnect
Loan of FDDI and Gigabit Ethernet cards

ASUSTeK

STATUS:

o The core setup works within limits.
o The scsi layer seems to almost work.
I'm still chasing down the hang bug.
o The block OSM is mostly functional
o LAN OSM works with FDDI and Ethernet cards.

TO DO:

General:
o Provide hidden address space if asked
o Long term message flow control
o PCI IOP's without interrupts are not supported yet
o Push FAIL handling into the core
o DDM control interfaces for module load etc
o Add I2O 2.0 support (Deffered to 2.5 kernel)

Block:
o Multiple major numbers
o Read ahead and cache handling stuff. Talk to Ingo and people
o Power management
o Finish Media changers

SCSI:
o Find the right way to associate drives/luns/busses

Lan:
o Performance tuning
o Test Fibre Channel code

Tape:
o Anyone seen anything implementing this ?
(D.S: Will attempt to do so if spare cycles permit)
