     sys/alpha/pci        cia.c 
   Log:
   - Add a workaround for the DMA bugs on some alpha chipsets that ATA DMA
     trips over often.  Specifically, in these chipsets DMA transfers that
     cross a page boundary result in data corruption.  The workaround is to
     not allow any DMA transfers for non-static DMA maps (i.e. "real"
     transfers as opposed to work areas allocated with bus_dmamem_alloc()) to
     cross a page in a single S/G element.  This behavior is enabled by
     setting 'busdma_pyxis_bug' to 1.
   - Add a new tunable 'machdep.busdma_pyxis_bug' that can be used to enable
     the workaround from the loader.  This can be used to enable it on
     chipsets where we don't automatically enable it.
   - Auto-enable the workaround for buggy PYXIS 1 chipsets supported via
     cia(4).
