9 * Writing the driver was quite simple, since most of the job is
10 * done by the generic pci-ide support.
11 * The hard part was finding the CY82C693's datasheet on Cypress's
12 * web page :-(. But Altavista solved this problem :-).

15 * Notes:
16 * - I recently got a 16.8G IBM DTTA, so I was able to test it with
17 * a large and fast disk - the results look great, so I'd say the
18 * driver is working fine :-)
19 * hdparm -t reports 8.17 MB/sec at about 6% CPU usage for the DTTA
20 * - this is my first linux driver, so there's probably a lot of room
21 * for optimizations and bug fixing, so feel free to do it.
22 * - if using PIO mode it's a good idea to set the PIO mode and
23 * 32-bit I/O support (if possible), e.g. hdparm -p2 -c1 /dev/hda
24 * - I had some problems with my IBM DHEA with PIO modes < 2
25 * (lost interrupts) ?????
26 * - first tests with DMA look okay, they seem to work, but there is a
27 * problem with sound - the BusMaster IDE TimeOut should fixed this

31 * ASK@1999-01-23: v0.33 made a few minor code clean ups
32 * removed DMA clock speed setting by default
33 * added boot message
34 * ASK@1998-11-01: v0.32 added support to set BusMaster IDE TimeOut
35 * added support to set DMA Controller Clock Speed
36 * ASK@1998-10-31: v0.31 fixed problem with setting to high DMA modes
37 * on some drives.
38 * ASK@1998-10-29: v0.3 added support to set DMA modes
39 * ASK@1998-10-28: v0.2 added support to set PIO modes
40 * ASK@1998-10-27: v0.1 first version - chipset detection
