Message-ID: <20080724160216.GL8833@beardog.cca.cpqcorp.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20080724224438B.fujita.tomonori@lab.ntt.co.jp>
In case it is of interest, here are the patches
to the 2.6.20.4 kernel which make a SCSI Smart Array
driver that I did in April of 2007. I called the
driver "hpsa", for HP Smart Array.
https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=33072&package_id=285296
I made these patches on a system which was booted from
a SmartArray 6400 using the cciss driver, so the first
patch disables cciss support in the cciss driver for the P800,
and the resulting SCSI driver supports only the Smartarray P800,
as I was doing the SCSI driver development on a P800 I had in
the system. That's the only reason that stuff is in
there in the 1st patch.
Because of the way the first few patches move files around,
these probably aren't particularly useful directly as patches
(and of course, they're for an old kernel anyway), but might
be useful as an illustration of one way things might be done.
