I was going to build an RPM for the modules for the Promise FastTrak
TX4650 PCI-e RAID controller for FC9.
Their support website claims it's supported "in-box" in FC9, but it
turns out that's not true:
$ lspci -v -s 02:00.0
02:00.0 RAID bus controller: Promise Technology, Inc. Unknown device 3f20
Subsystem: Promise Technology, Inc. Unknown device 3f22
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 10
I/O ports at dc00 [size=128]
I/O ports at d800 [size=256]
Memory at fbeff000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
Memory at fbec0000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=128K]
Memory at fbefc000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=8K]
Expansion ROM at fbe80000 [disabled] [size=256K]
Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2
Capabilities: [70] Express Legacy Endpoint, MSI 00
Capabilities: [94] SATA HBA <?>
Capabilities: [100] Advanced Error Reporting <?>
Capabilities: [140] Virtual Channel <?>
Capabilities: [160] Device Serial Number 01-00-00-00-02-00-00-00
Capabilities: [170] Power Budgeting <?>
so... I downloaded their drivers from their website:
http://www.promise.com/upload/Support/Driver/FT%20TX4650-2650%20Linux%20Kernl%202.6%20PSC%20v1.1.0.12.tgz
(Yes, I realize it will taint my kernel... and it doesn't include all of the source.)
I tried to build it, but getting into the kernel directory:
[root@builder 2.6.27.7-53.fc9.x86_64]# pwd
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.27.7-53.fc9.x86_64
[root@builder 2.6.27.7-53.fc9.x86_64]# make oldconfig
scripts/kconfig/conf -o arch/x86/Kconfig
#
# configuration written to .config
#
[root@builder 2.6.27.7-53.fc9.x86_64]# make prepare
scripts/kconfig/conf -s arch/x86/Kconfig
CHK include/linux/version.h
CHK include/linux/utsrelease.h
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `missing-syscalls'. Stop.
make: *** [prepare0] Error 2
[root@builder 2.6.27.7-53.fc9.x86_64]#
I noticed that there was a chunk missing from upstream...
Is this a known issue? Reading various archives, it seems to go back to
at least 2.6.23... What's the workaround?
And has anyone else gotten this compiler to build/run on their system?
I'm trying to set up an automated build factory to do about 200 nightly
package builds...
Thanks,
-Philip
