nForce4 has 64 bit (40 bit AMD64) DMA in the SATA controller. We gave

this up if they wanted to work on it though.
Thanks for the correction. Sounds nice - hopefully we'll get a driver soon.
I guess it's in good hands with Jeff for now.
I'll happen but not soon. Motivation is low at NV and here as well,
since newer NV is AHCI. The code in question, "NV ADMA", is essentially
legacy at this point -- though I certainly acknowledge the large current
installed base. Just being honest about the current state of things...
