I want to use its' XOR engine to compute raid5 parity, but I can't
find this function in 2.6.30 downloaded from kernel.org, someone know
if there is a patch?

Thanks, but I have three questions:
1. Will the patch be added to kernel in the future?
2. If I have problem in using this patch, will you or other guys help
me to fix it?
3. Is this patch based on 2.6.30, because we are using this version of kernel.
