Re: How to post codes to kernel tree at kernel.org ?

Hello. Follow these steps:

1) Uncompress Adapetc's code (adp94xx folder) at /usr/src/linux-2.6/drivers/scsi/
2) In your kernel tree at drivers/scsi/Kconfig, add the follow line:
        source "drivers/scsi/adp94xx/Kconfig"    
    after this line:
        source "drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/Kconfig.aic79xx"

3) In your kernel tree at drivers/scsi/Makefile, add the follow line:
        obj-$(CONFIG_SCSI_ADP94XX)      += adp94xx/ 
   
after this line:
        obj-$(CONFIG_SCSI_AIC79XX)    += aic7xxx/

4) In your kernel tree at drivers/scsi/scsi_typedefs.h, add the follow lines at begin of file:
        typedef struct scsi_host_template Scsi_Host_Template;
        typedef struct scsi_device Scsi_Device;

Thats it! Run make config or make menuconfig and configure your driver.

I will send two git patchs for you, if you prefer.

Hi Fabio,

I have just been trying to compile a 2.6 kernel with adp94xx and I am
getting many compile errors on the driver code.

I have tried source from ibm and from adaptec sites.

It would save me a lot of time if you could let me know how you built
them successfully.

Thanks very much,

Rubyduck
