No need -- the code is already in the "wm"
driver.

Hi,

so for testing that hardware, I want to go for current but
as far as I can see,
there is no successful build for i386 in http://releng.n
etbsd.org/builds/HEAD/ .
Or do I missunderstand this? 

I'm a lucky guy, that has an ATCA-Server with 6 XEONs for
testing purpose
and I'd like to test NetBSD-current on that monster. 3.0
was working, but
had problems with Serial-attached-SCSI controler and
ethernet chips (see below).
But I was short in time for further testings...

Any advice?
