support for SATA port multipliers



It appears that the siisata driver currently does not support
attachment to port multiplier boards even though the underlying
hardware does in fact support that configuration.  As a result, it
seems impossible to deploy NetBSD on some more-or-less standard large
storage servers.

Is there anyone in the community with interest and expertise to extend
the relevant driver(s) (or create appropriate new ones) so that SATA
controllers with port multipliers would be supported?  I will work on
making the hardware available if someone can work on the drivers.

Thanks alot.

Cheers,
Brook
