Re: dmraid 10.0.0rc13 crashes with ICH7

I must warn you that all these new tests and results have been done 
after SATA RAID has been DISABLED on bios and installed FC6 with the 
"nodmraid" option.
http://www.latinsud.com/ddf1-HP_ML310-ICH7.tar.bz2

After all that I've also been playing with source code, cleaned up code 
and compiled with debugging:
/* Find the offset for this config/drive. */
static uint64_t get_offset(struct ddf1 *ddf1, struct ddf1_config_record *cr,
                           struct ddf1_phys_drive *pd)
{
        uint64_t * kk;
        int i = get_offset_entry(ddf1, cr, pd);
        if (i < 0)
                return pd->size;
        else {
                kk=CR_OFF(ddf1, cr);
                return kk[i];
        }
}

Then I got this:
Starting program: /root/dmraid/1.0.0.rc13-mio/tools/dmraid -s
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Where "kk" takes random values each execution.

Then I tried a modification (without really knowing what i was doing) 
and it looks like it quite worked:
ddf1_cr_off_maxpds_helper(...) {
    struct ddf1_header *h = ddf1->primary;
    printf("WAA %d %d\n",  h->max_phys_drives , h->max_primary_elements);
    return  h->max_phys_drives; /* Always return this, like assume 
adaptec_mode==1 */
}

And I got this with "dmraid -s":

And with "dmraid -ay" (in dmesg):
device-mapper: ioctl: 4.10.0-ioctl (2006-09-14) initialised: 
[email protected]
device-mapper: multipath: version 1.0.5 loaded

device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table

Sorry i never used dmraid or device-mapper before, does that mean it all 
worked except for device-mapper?

By the way, this is what i did to get the last 32MB of each drive:
dmesg | grep sda
SCSI device sda: 312581808 512-byte hdwr sectors (160042 MB)
...
dd if=/dev/sda of=sda.dat bs=512 skip=$((312581808-2*32*1024))
dd if=/dev/sdb of=sdb.dat bs=512 skip=$((312581808-2*32*1024))

HP offers a driver (with source code) for Proliant SmartArray for 
RHEL/CentOS and other distros, 
http://h18023.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/download/25356.html, 
but i'm not sure whether it's for my device (had a look at 
include/linux/pci_ids.h and did not match).
Do you think we will be able to set it up using Fedora and dmraid, any 
advice? I might also try to update firmware.
Thanks.
