This works fine on FreeBSD 4.1, but as we upgraded to FreeBSD 4.7 the driver panics the kernel. We asked Rainbow for a driver update, but they told us that FreeBSD 4.7 drivers are not available. Rainbow used to mention FreeBSD as a supported OS, but in the meantime they removed all references to FreeBSD... Does anyone have an idea on either a replacement card or (even better) fixes for the Rainbow drivers? Thanks!

The problem is that Rainbow (at least their channel manager for northern Europe) is very uncooperative and does not understand that I want to help them (and myself) to get their drivers to work with modern FreeBSD versions. I have managed to get part of the source code for the driver from them but I think that some of the .h files that I have only found in the LinuxAPI are too old. I'm able to compile and run the driver on 4.8 but the communication between their binary-only library and the driver seems to be somewhat out of whack, as the accelerators are always reported to be busy. If you could pester the european office for FreeBSD support, I think that my next request for help in digging up source files will have better chances to be successful. This is the last reply I got from them: > For us to come up with what you require, the cost to bear for you on > top of the purchase of any board would be of $7000 - $10000. All I asked for was source for the driver together with a libswift.so that was the same version as the source. I think that $10000 is a bit to much to spend on two $50 cards from ebay. I have been swamped with other work the last month, so this project have been stalled since I got the above response on 24/3. /Martin Rene de Vries wrote: > Hello, > > For an SSL based application we are using the Rainbow CryptoSwift (a PCI > card with RSA acceleration).

What they sent us were some drivers (version 2.0.5 and 2.1.5) which were incomplete and nonfunctional with the 2.1.0 libraries. They also offered us to pay for the driver (same amount of money as in your offer). In short we were disappointed in the level of support we got from Rainbow.

It depends on what performance the Rainbow hardware has. Soekris Engineering (http://www.soekris.com/) has a hifn card that might work on the low end. If you need more performance, there are broadcom based cards from Interface Master (http://www.interfacemasters.com/products/index.html) and apparently also from Sun. These cost around $1k.

Booting from the 4.7 install CD the system would hang with the following message: ad0: READ command timeout tag=0 serv=0 - resetting ata0: resetting devices ..

Disabling UDMA in the BIOS will also allow the system to boot. I searched the mailing list archives, but couldn't find anything that looked relevant (other than setting hw.ata.ata_dma=0). Any help would be greatly appreciated. If I need to provide more info, just let me know what to provide. Below is dmesg output (with a GENERIC kernel) and uname -a output.
