SATA status report updated

In particular, I created a matrix of drivers and features, to give people an idea of fine-grained driver status:

Jeff / Tejun,
Great work. If the feedback about reversion issues continues to be as minimal as it currently is it appears you appear to have rolled out a great enhancement with minimal errors introduced. I expect to be using sata/e-sata much more extensively now that this new EH process is in place.
Any practical experience about which PCI controllers and/or enclosures would be best to get if I wanted to use e-Sata and the hotplug/warmplug logic?
I have about 20 computers I would like to be able to plug e-Sata drives into so I could move the drives around as needed.
The computers will be a mix of Linux (2.6.18+) and Windows 2K/XP/2003.

You mention that the Intel 31244 docs are likely available. They are:

I primarily work on sil controllers and ICH7R piix/ahci because I have access to the hardware and docs. So, those tend to get new features first and get a lot of testing.
If you're planning on using Port Multiplier, sil3124/32 would be the best bet ATM.
