NAME

     ahcisata -- AHCI 1.0 and 1.1 compliant SATA controllers driver

SYNOPSIS

     ahcisata* at pci? dev ? function ? flags 0x0000

DESCRIPTION

     The ahcisata driver supports SATA controllers compliant with the Serial ATA Advanced Host Controller Interface Revision 1.0 or 1.1 specifica-
     tion, and provides the interface to the hardware for the ata(4) driver.

     The ahcisata driver will only attach if the controller has been put in AHCI mode by the BIOS; if the controller is in pciide-compatible mode,
     it will be handled by the appropriate driver (piixide(4) for Intel AHCI controllers).

NAME

     ixpide -- PCI IDE disk controllers driver

SYNOPSIS

     ixpide* at pci? dev ? function ? flags 0x0000

DESCRIPTION

     The ixpide driver supports the ATI Technologies IXP IDE controller, and provides the interface with the hardware for the ata(4) driver.

     The 0x0002 flag forces the ixpide driver to disable DMA on chipsets for which DMA would normally be enabled.  This can be used as a debugging
     aid, or to work around problems where the IDE controller is wired up to the system incorrectly.

HARDWARE

     The supported IDE controllers are
     o	 ATI SB200
     o	 ATI SB300
     o	 ATI SB400, Parallel ATA
     o	 ATI SB400, Serial ATA
     o	 ATI SB700, Serial and Parallel ATA

SEE ALSO

     ata(4), atapi(4), intro(4), pci(4), pciide(4), wd(4), wdc(4)

CAVEATS

     Some SB700 controllers can hang under load when Native IDE mode is selected in the system BIOS, but work fine in AHCI mode.
