54 driver provides support for the Adaptec AAC family of SCSI Ultra2, Ultra160,
55 and Ultra320, SATA and SAS RAID controllers.
57 Access to RAID containers is available via the
62 device enables the SCSI pass-through interface and allows devices connected
63 to the card such as CD-ROMs to be available via the CAM

70 device nodes provide access to the management interface of the controller.
71 One node exists per installed card.

269 will enable debug messages.
271 The adapter can send status and alert messages asynchronously
273 These messages are printed on the system console,
274 and are also queued for retrieval by a management application.

288 This driver is not compatible with Dell controllers that have version 1.x
290 The firmware version is the same as the kernel version printed in the BIOS
291 POST and driver attach messages.
293 The controller is not actually paused on suspend/resume.
