This belongs to libata, it was filled as IDE probably because it is about PATA support. sata_via driver should drive also PATA port of VIA vt6421 (this is required by the fact that single PCI device controls both SATA and PATA). Jeff, the patch mentioned here was posted more than year ago and as I see vt6421 support is still not in 2.6.20-rc1. Could please describe what needs to be done in order to get it into mergeable state? Supported in the current release |
