Alan Cox offered an updated libATA PATA (IDE) status report. He summarized, “with the exception of HPA and serialize support its now pretty close to a straight replacement for drivers/ide on x86 systems (and boxes using PCI devices only). There is other stuff that wants improving still like error recovery on CRC, but its getting close.”
