There are mfi(4) and mpi(4)
  http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=mfi&arch=i386&sektion=4
  http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=mpi&arch=i386&sektion=4

mfi is supposed to work with
	"-   Dell PERC 5/e, Dell PERC 5/i"
mpi is supposed to work with
	"-   Dell PERC 4/im, SAS 5/E, SAS 5/i, SAS 5/iR"

Doesn't this look like two drivers for Dell PERC 5/i?


The mpi(4) driver for LSISAS1064 would also help NetBSD to run on a SUN
x4100/x4200/x4600.
