Hi folks,
I have finished beta 7 of my enhanced EIDE busmaster driver. I hope
this is the last one before going final. The current (and most probably
frozen) feature set is:
- supports the VIA 586 IDE controller fully (including
undocumented bits)
- supports the VIA 596 IDE controller (experimental)
*** - supports the ALi 5229 IDE controller
*** - supports the SiS 5513 IDE controller
- generic busmaster support (very arcane)
- no need for chipset initialization by the BIOS (INTEL, VIA, ALi
and SiS)
- Ultra33-DMA on all supported chipsets
*** - ATA-66 on SiS (experimental)
*** - faster PIO due to 32bit IO
*** - sets device inactivity timers (POWERSV.SYS is no longer needed)
- supports devices which don't spin up automatically
- optional limit data transfer rates for more reliability
*** - adapts/auto-adapts chip timings to PCI clock (experimental on
SiS)
*** - some fixes for bugs introduced with beta 6
- some fixes for bugs and omissions in the IBM code ;-)
You'll find it as
ftp://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/incoming/danis506.zip and later
ftp://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/os2/system/drivers/storage/danis506.zip
Enjoy it!
Dani
