Re: [ANNOUNCE] MPT Fusion driver 3.02.06 update

Hi Eric,

I installed Fusion MPT driver 3.02.06 into my tiger4(SR870BN4).
But I have some problems.

1.compile error
  When I compiled your driver with kernel 2.6.9, compile operation
  failed with error.
  I checked mptbase.c(and mptbase.h) and found your code shows:
   #if (LINUX_VERSION_CODE > KERNEL_VERSION(2,6,8))
         pci_save_state(pdev);
   #else
         pci_save_state(pdev, ioc->PciState);
   #endif
  But pci_save_state() in kernel 2.6.9 has two parameters.
  (I don't know which kernel version has 1 parameter)

2.startup sequence fail
  I fixed above problem temporarily and compiled it.
  The compile operation finished with no error.
  Then I started Linux, but the startup sequence failed with
  following error.
  >mptbase: Initiating ioc0 bringup
  >mptbase: ioc0: ERROR - Diagnostic reset FAILED! (142h)
  >mptbase: ioc0 NOT READY WARNING!
  >mptbase: WARNING - ioc0 did not initialize properly! (-1)
  >mptbase: probe of 0000:04:02.0 failed with error -1

  This message shows, IOC didn't become ready.
  The LSI53C1030 on Tiger4 has no flash ROM, I think the cause
  of the problem was fusion MPT driver didn' execute  Firmware
  Download Boot operation.

If you have any questions or comments, please let me know.

Thanks,
M.Fukuchi
