Things in SATA-land have been moving along recently, so I updated the software status report:

I guess this means libata support for HW-based NCQ.
It also could mean software/driver implemented NCQ, which could work on chipsets not supporting HW-NCQ in unison with a disk having NCQ?

NCQ by definition -requires- support in the controller chip.


Although I have not updated it in several weeks, folks may wish to refer to the hardware status report as well:

How well does libata work with the newest ULi chipsets?
If not well, is there a possible timeframe?

No idea.  I don't see many bug reports, so I suppose its OK.
