IDE Controller Driver
*********************
+.. warning::
+
+ The ATA/IDE Drivers are out of date and should not be used for new BSPs.
+ The preferred alternative is to port the ATA/SATA/SCSI/NVMe support from
+ FreeBSD to RTEMS using the `libbsd <https://git.rtems.org/rtems-libbsd>`_.
+ Ask on the mailing list if you plan to write a driver for an ATA/IDE device.
