[I'm Cc:'ing current-users for wider confirmation and testing, this is

I can confirm something that looks very much like this on i386, with
sil0680 controllers, under xen (and also native).  Up until I saw this
thread, I had been trying to chase it down as a config issue: all the
disks on the other controllers are wired down and probe correctly,
while the remaining wd* devices never appear. I thought that was
somehow related to autoconf changes, but perhaps it is specific to the
sil0680 instead?

Ident of my most recent, still failing tets kernel lists

     $NetBSD: ata.c,v 1.73 2006/01/22 16:40:56 bouyer Exp $
     $NetBSD: cmdide.c,v 1.22 2006/01/17 00:40:49 bouyer Exp $
     $NetBSD: wdc.c,v 1.234 2006/01/24 21:43:26 bouyer Exp $

And an older kernel that failed has:

     $NetBSD: ata.c,v 1.72 2005/12/11 12:21:14 christos Exp $
     $NetBSD: cmdide.c,v 1.22 2006/01/17 00:40:49 bouyer Exp $
     $NetBSD: wdc.c,v 1.232 2006/01/16 20:30:19 bouyer Exp $

If it matters, and the problem is not elsewhere, the working 3.99.9
kernel has:

     $NetBSD: ata.c,v 1.71 2005/07/07 17:51:31 drochner Exp $
     $NetBSD: cmdide.c,v 1.20 2005/09/21 14:32:46 christos Exp $
     $NetBSD: wdc.c,v 1.230 2005/08/29 19:30:07 bouyer Exp $

I haven't had much opportunity to test alternate configs, such as
wiring down more disks on the cmdides, or unwiring all disks yet.
(Rebooting this machine is a little more tedious than most, because
there are several DOMU's running on it.) I'll kick off a kernel build
today with the alternate config and see about testing that soon.
