arcmsr — Areca RAID Controller driver

       The driver was written by Erich Chen <erich@areca.com.tw>.

       The  driver  has  been  tested on i386 and amd64.  It likely requires additional work to function on big-
       endian architectures.

       The  arcmsr  driver  provides  support  for the Areca ARC-11xx, ARC-12xx, ARC-13xx, ARC-16xx and ARC-18xx
       series of SAS and SATA RAID controllers.  These controllers feature RAID-0, 1, 3, 5, 6, and 10  and  JBOD
       acceleration for up to 16 SATA drives.  RAID level and stripe level migration, online capacity expansion,
       hot  insertion/removal,  automatic  failover  and  rebuild,  and SMART are also supported.  Access to the
       arrays is provided via the SCSI CAM /dev/da? device nodes.  A management interface is  also  present  via
       the /dev/arcmsr? device node.  Management tools for i386 and amd64 are available from Areca.
