From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040510 Description of problem: I upgraded from FC1 to FC2 using 4 CDs I had burnt. I have a IT8212F PCI card. It supports extra IDE devices by emulating them to SCSI devices. With the kernel it needs to be recompiled but the recompilation is failing. I have downloaded the latest drivers from the vendor and I believe they should work. I had to errors. The initial was I could not find autoconf.h. The compile refused to look at /lib/modules/2.6.5-1.358/build/include/linux directories. I kludged this by copying the required files to /usr/src/linux-2.6.5-1.358/include/ directories. The problem I am getting now is when I do a "make" I get this output : [root@petershost ITERaid]# make make -I/lib/modules/2.6.5-1.358/build/include/ -C /usr/src/linux-2.6.x SUBDIRS=/usr/src/linux-2.6.x/ITERaid modules make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.5-1.358' CC [M] /usr/src/linux-2.6.x/ITERaid/iteraid.o In file included from /usr/src/linux-2.6.x/ITERaid/iteraid.c:266: /usr/src/linux-2.6.x/ITERaid/iteraid.h:946: error: syntax error before "Scsi_Cmnd" /usr/src/linux-2.6.x/ITERaid/iteraid.h:946: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union /usr/src/linux-2.6.x/ITERaid/iteraid.h:947: warning: type defaults to `int' in declaration of `SCSI_REQUEST_BLOCK' /usr/src/linux-2.6.x/ITERaid/iteraid.h:947: warning: type defaults to `int' in declaration of `PSCSI_REQUEST_BLOCK' /usr/src/linux-2.6.x/ITERaid/iteraid.h:947: warning: data definition has no type or storage class /usr/src/linux-2.6.x/ITERaid/iteraid.h:1201: error: syntax error before "PSCSI_REQUEST_BLOCK" /usr/src/linux-2.6.x/ITERaid/iteraid.h:1201: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union /usr/src/linux-2.6.x/ITERaid/iteraid.h:1206: warning: type defaults to `int' in declaration of `OriginalSrb' I believe the error is iteraid.h:946: error: syntax error before "Scsi_Cmnd" and is being caused because I can't find the definition for "Scsi_Cmnd". When I look at /include/scsi I can find a definition for "scsi_cmnd" but not for "Scsi_Cmnd". (I can find references to Scsi_Cmnd but no definition). Either I have screwed up somehow - definately possible, or there something has change or something has been left out which is preventing the compile from working. I currently have 250G of data that is unaccessible. Thanks Zach. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.5-1.358 kernel-source-2.6.5-1.358 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Run the make file. Additional info: rpm -qa | grep kernel kernel-2.6.5-1.358 kernel-source-2.6.5-1.358 kernel-utils-2.4-9.1.131 kernel-doc-2.6.5-1.358 (The reason I rated this as severe is because I have unavailable data which seems to match the criteria). Thanks Zach.
Hello ?? I have change my problem slightly now. If I do this cp -a /usr/src/linux-2.6.x/drivers/scsi/scsi.h . cp -a /usr/src/linux-2.6.x/drivers/scsi/hosts.h . cp -a /usr/src/linux-2.6.x/drivers/scsi/scsi_obsolete.h . cp -a /usr/src/linux-2.6.x/drivers/scsi/scsi_typedefs.h . and change the source to '#include "scsi_typedefs.h" and "#include "scsi_obselete.h"' ie from the current directory then when I do a make I only get - iteraid.c: In function `itedev_open': iteraid.c:5580: warning: `MOD_INC_USE_COUNT' is deprecated (declared at /usr/src/ITERaid2/module.h:501) iteraid.c: In function `itedev_close': iteraid.c:5817: warning: `MOD_DEC_USE_COUNT' is deprecated (declared at /usr/src/ITERaid2/module.h:513) iteraid.c: At top level: iteraid.c:4667: warning: `IdeMediaStatus' defined but not used Thanks Zach.
this driver is intended for use with 2.6.1 (See the Makefile) bug the vendor to update it (or better yet, try to work something out upstream).
