This should be detected at runtime, and that is easily done.
You can use the PCI device to get at the firmware device
node, and use that to look for a firmware device node property
that identifies it as a card from Sun.
Usually the "name" property has some identifying string in it.
Sometimes there is a property with the string "fcode" in it and you
could look for that as well.
OK, i'll look at it... Thanks for the hint!
Actually, my idea won't work if the card is used in a non-Sparc
system.  Do these cards have PCI subsystem vendor or device ID's that
identify it as a Sun card?

Here's the output of lspci:

0003:01:03.0 Memory controller: Adaptec (formerly DPT) Domino RAID Engine (rev 02)
        Subsystem: Adaptec (formerly DPT) Domino RAID Engine
        Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 0082efe0
        BIST result: 00

        Subsystem: Adaptec (formerly DPT) SmartRAID V Controller

        BIST result: 00
        Memory at 000001c990000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=2M]
        I/O ports at 0000000002010400 [size=256]
        Expansion ROM at 0000000080000000 [disabled] [size=32K]

As it looks it's equal to the "Intel" based cards...

Don't think it will work then, right?



Best regards,
