> We would like to establish an OpenSolaris project for
> mega_sas to continue development, with
> storage-discuss as the proposed discussion list.
> 
> Our initial goals for mega_sas are around hardening
> and configuration management:
> 
> - adding FMA support
> - make it warlock-clean
> - make it work with cfgadm(1M)
> - driver cleanup:
>   - changes to make it lint clean,
> - removal of un-needed code, and
>   - use of #defines rather than hard-coded constants
> Our longer-term goals are:
> 
> - add power management support
> - add hotplug support
> - add 64bit DMA support
> - migrate memory allocation to use kmem caches, and
> - add kstats
> 
> This project will be associated with the Storage
> Community.
> 
> Initial project leaders:
> James McPherson, Sun (jmcp)
> Susan Scheufele, Sun  (susans)
