I just ran across this URL:
http://www.freebsd.org/news/status/report-oct-2006-dec-2006.html#MPT-LSI-Logic-Host-Adapters:-mpt
and am wondering why you guys don't just port the mpi driver from
OpenBSD.  There is nothing in the mpt driver that doesn't work in mpi.
We have mpi working on all platforms that have PCI slots and it is quite
a bit faster than the ported mpt ever was.  All items listed work
perfectly in OpenBSD.

Before you go off on a target mode tangent...  The hardware does not
support it; the only thing it does is async mode which is only used for
MS cluster support.  There is no point in having that in the driver so
that should not be a reason to no support it.
