Bug 299901

Hardware is due to RH by November 13, 2007 for inclusion in RHEL 4.7.

AMD: Does Red Hat have this hardware in house? What's the status of this request?

We do not have the hardware, but we still can support it just according to
SB800 SATA controller spec. We can verify it once we get the HW.

In fact, We need not provide any more SB800 related SATA/IDE patches
because we find that most of the SATA PCI device IDs are same as those
of SB700, except:
0x4394  SATA in AHCI mode with HyperFlash-OneNand support
0x4395  SATA in AHCI mode with HyperFlash-PCIE support

There is one patch submitted by Henry, please check:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-
2.6.git;a=commit;h=c69c0892d8dd68b01a9fced5cab8527f0698c15e

And RHEL5.2 has added this feature from kernel 2.6.18-58.el5,
please check BZ# 252961

Thanks

Shane, have you tested the in 2.6.18-58.el5 kernel or newer from
http://people.redhat.com/dzickus/el5 from the addition posted in bug 252961?

Our QA are testing 2.6.18-81 on SB700, because SB800 is not available.
We will test on SB800 when we get it.

Created attachment 295343 [details]

Hi,

the RHEL4.7 release notes deadline is on June 17, 2008 (Tuesday). they will
undergo a final proofread before being dropped to translation, at which point no
further additions or revisions will be entertained.

a mockup of the RHEL4.7 release notes can be viewed here:
http://intranet.corp.redhat.com/ic/intranet/RHEL4u7relnotesmockup.html

please use the aforementioned link to verify if your bugzilla is already in the
release notes (if it needs to be). each item in the release notes contains a
link to its original bug; as such, you can search through the release notes by
bug number.

Cheers,
Don
