Sorry for the late testing. This patch causes the build to fail again for me: make[5]: *** No rule to make target 'drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aicasm/aicasm_scan.lex.c', needed by 'drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aicasm/aicasm_scan.lex.o'. Stop. /home/jejb/git/scsi-misc/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/Makefile:85: recipe for target 'drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aicasm/aicasm' failed make[4]: *** [drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aicasm/aicasm] Error 2 /home/jejb/git/scsi-misc/scripts/Makefile.build:407: recipe for target 'drivers/scsi/aic7xxx' failed make[3]: *** [drivers/scsi/aic7xxx] Error 2 make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... /home/jejb/git/scsi-misc/scripts/Makefile.build:407: recipe for target 'drivers/scsi' failed I think the problem is simply that we now have two separate options for building the firmware: REGENERATE_PARSERS and CONFIG_AIC7XXX_BUILD_FIRMWARE and the latter needs to be eliminated. I'll see if I can work out what's missing.
