This patch was built & tested using 2.4.22 with the 2.4.23-pre2 prepatch applied. It is intended for inclusion in the 2.4.23 kernel.
This patch adds support for more than 8 controllers. It does this by passing 0 as a major number and allows the OS to assign a dynamically allocated major number when there are more than 8 cciss controllers in a system.
It's primary purpose is to help support the SA6400 and SA6400 EM. When these 2 cards are used they are 2 separate controllers in a single PCI/PCI-X slot.
Thanks,
mikem

+Support for more than 8 controllers
+-----------------------------------
+Originally the driver only supports 8 controllers in the system,
+and this is due to the major numbers assigned to the driver
+(104 thru 111).
+
+The driver can now support up to 32 controllers in the system.
+
+For the ninth controller and beyond, the major numbers will be
+assigned dynamically by the kernel when it is discovered,
+and there is no guarantee what the major number you will get,
+but most likely it will start from 254 and goes down from there.
+
+You can check the assigned major numbers by typing
+ cat /proc/devices
+And look for cciss controllers
+
+Once you have this, you need to create device nodes in
+/dev/cciss directory. The nodes for the first 8 controllers
+should already be created by mkdev.cciss script or
+/etc/makedev.d/cciss script. You can add the major number(s)
+in those scripts, or create the nodes manually by using
+the mknod command.
+
+You can also use mknod_dyn.cciss and rmnod_dyn.cciss scripts
+to create or remove nodes easily. These scripts can be found
+in the Documentation directory.
+
+Then you can mount the devices and create partitions
+(You also need to make nodes for these partitions).
+
+As for the minor number, the disk device will have a minor
+number divisible by 16 (e.g: 0, 16, 32 etc), and the
+partitions on those disk devices will have the minor number
+of the disk device plus the partition number (1-15).
+For example, disk d2 will have minor number 32, and its
+partitions 1 and 2 will have minor numbers 33 and 34.
+
+Look at the mkdev.cciss script for example.
+
+Note:
+ In 2.4 kernel, partition names are hard coded in
+ /usr/src/linux/fs/partitions/check.c
+ and only for the first 8 cciss controllers. The rest
+ will be reported as ccissXX. This should not affect
+ I/O operation or performance. Please apply the
+ cciss_2.4_partition_name.patch to address this. This
+ will not be an issue under 2.5 kernel, since partition
+ names will be handled by the driver.

+# Script to create device nodes for SMART Array controllers, idea from
+# mkdev.cciss found in Documentation. The argument syntax is different,
+# hence, the name change.
+#
+# Usage:
+# mkdev_dyn.cciss [ctlr num] [major num] [num log vol] [num partitions]
+#
+# With no arguments, the script will check to see if there are any cciss
+# nodes already created in the /dev directory. If so, then it will assume
+# that the nodes for the first 8 controllers are already created by
+# /etc/makedev.d, which is likely. If not, then the script will create
+# them, using the major numbers reserved for cciss controllers (104 thru 111).
+#
+# After that, it will start creating nodes for the controllers which major
+# numbers are dynamically allocated by the kernel. It will check
+# /proc/devices for any cciss controllers with major numbers other than
+# 104 thru 111 and creates the nodes.
+#
+# Note that it is a good idea to run rmdev_dyn.cciss script if you remove
+# those controllers (the ones which major numbers were dynamically allocated)
+# This will unclutter /dev, as well as preventing possible problems due to
+# referenced devices and major numbers no longer available or taken by
+# other non-cciss drivers.
+#
+# With no arguments, the script assumes 16 logical volumes per controller
+# and 16 partitions per volume;
+#
+# Passing arguments:
+# If you know that one of your controllers, say cciss8, has been dynamically
+# assigned major number 254, and were planning on no more than 2 logical
+# volumes, using a maximum of 4 partitions per volume, you could do:
+#
+# mkdev_dyn.cciss 8 254 2 4
