As the subject says I've added support for for the SATA PHY (the serial
link interface HW) to -current. This is needed to sort out problems with
the connection and on those chipsets that support its, handle hotplug.
At any rate, since I dont have any of these chipsets in the lab the code
was done blindfolded from docs, so it needs testing and quite possibly
bugfixing as well.
Please report of any success/failures, and in both cases the output from
dmesg would be handy, as well as knowing if software inititated
detach/attach via atacontrol works, and on the nVidia if even hotplug is
possible...
Thanks!
