Subject: Re: kern/184154: [cam] QUIRK: SYNC_CACHE not supported on IBM ServeRAID

 Just attempt to mount a ZFS pool on six RDM disks caused writing 13 
 error messages for each disk (78 error messages together, five line in 
 dmesg each).
 The mount WAS NOT successful.
 
 ZFS uses SYNC_CACHE quite often (because of its principle), it can lead 
 into significant performance degradation (if mounted).
 
 I can not tolerate such behaviour in production environment handling 
 terabytes of archive data.
 
 I need to upgrade to 10.0 as soon as the STABLE version will be released.
 It seems I will have to patch and recompile kernel first. :-(
