Error compiling kernel 2.6.4 with dpt_i2o driver

Error compiling kernel 2.6.4 with dpt_i2o driver

[Vágási László]

Dear All,

My company is running a Degian GNU Linux on a dual Intel PII 933MHz 
system with 1 GB RAM.
Currently it is running kernel 2.4.22 which supports our Adaptec 2100S 
raid controller using the dpt_i2o driver.

We decided to change to kernel 2.6.x (I have tried 2.6.0, 2.6.1, 2.6.4) 
but it fails to compile.
Here are some lines from the output:

drivers/scsi/dpt_i2o.c:32:2 #error Please convert me to 
Documentation/DMA-mapping.txt
drivers/scsi/dpt_i2o.c: In function 'adpt_install_hba':
drivers/scsi/dpt_i2o.c:997: warning: passing arg 2 of 'request_irq' from 
incompatible pointer type
drivers/scsi/dpt_i2o.c: I function 'adpt_scsi_to_i25':
drivers/scsi/dpt_i2o.c:2118: structure has no member named 'address'
drivers/scsi/dpt_i2o.c: At top level:
drivers/scsi/dpt_i2o.c:165: warning: 'dptids' defined but not used

Is it a bug in the kernel source or I have miss configured something?

Here is the result of the ver_linux script:

If some fields are empty or look unusual you may have an old version.
Compare to the current minimal requirements in Documentation/Changes.

Mark: Is there a newer one which applies to 2.6.5/2.6.6-rc1||-bk*?

ciao, Marc

This is the `2.4.2->2.6.5' driver source tarball I have that is close to the set of patches I submitted in February in linux-scsi. It should work *much* better.
