This driver is for Compaq's SMART2 Intellegent Disk Array Controllers.

WARNING:
--------

This driver comes with NO WARRANTY.  It is not officially supported by
Compaq.  Do not call technical support.  Use at your own risk.

Supported Cards:
----------------

This driver is known to work with the following cards:

	* SMART (EISA)
	* SMART-2/E (EISA)
	* SMART-2/P
	* SMART-2DH
	* SMART-2SL
	* SMART-221
	* SMART-3100ES
	* SMART-3200
	* Integrated Smart Array Controller
	* SA 4200
	* SA 4250ES

It should also work with some really old Disk array adapters, but I am
unable to test against these cards:

	* IDA
	* IDA-2
	* IAES

Installing:
-----------

You need to build a new kernel to use this device, even if you want to
use a loadable module.  

Apply the patch to a 2.2.x kernel:

# cd linux
# patch -p1 <smart2.patch

Then build a new kernel and turn on Compaq SMART2 Disk Array support.
Create device nodes for the diskarray device:

# mkdev.ida [ctlrs]

Where ctlrs is the number of controllers you have (defaults to 1 if not
specified).

EISA Controllers:
-----------------

If you want to use an EISA controller you'll have to supply some
insmod/lilo paramaters.  If the driver is compiled into the kernel, must
give it the controller's IO port address at boot time (it is no longer
necessary to specifiy the IRQ).  For example, if you had two SMART-2/E
controllers, in EISA slots 1 and 2 you'd give it a boot argument like
this:

	smart2=0x1000,0x2000

If you were loading the driver as a module, you'd give load it like this:

	insmod cpqarray.o eisa=0x1000,0x2000

You can use EISA and PCI adapters at the same time.

Booting:
--------

You'll need to use a modified lilo if you want to boot from a disk array.
Its simply a version of lilo with some code added to tell it how to
understand Compaq diskarray devices.

Device Naming:
--------------

You need some entries in /dev for the ida device.  The mkdev.ida script
can make device nodes for you automatically.  Currently the device setup
is as follows:

Major numbers:
	72	ida0
	73	ida1
	74	ida2
	etc...

Minor numbers:
        b7 b6 b5 b4 b3 b2 b1 b0
        |----+----| |----+----|
             |           |
             |           +-------- Partition ID (0=wholedev, 1-15 partition)
             |
             +-------------------- Logical Volume number

The suggested device naming scheme is:
/dev/ida/c0d0		Controller 0, disk 0, whole device
/dev/ida/c0d0p1		Controller 0, disk 0, partition 1
/dev/ida/c0d0p2		Controller 0, disk 0, partition 2
/dev/ida/c0d0p3		Controller 0, disk 0, partition 3

/dev/ida/c1d1		Controller 1, disk 1, whole device
/dev/ida/c1d1p1		Controller 1, disk 1, partition 1
/dev/ida/c1d1p2		Controller 1, disk 1, partition 2
/dev/ida/c1d1p3		Controller 1, disk 1, partition 3
