Hi, I have a LSI MegaRAID i4 (511 series) IDE RAID card (I believe it is the same than DELL CERC card). This card works well on a 2.6.11.6 vanilla kernel, with the old megaraid module.
But I tried to upgrade the kernel to the last release (2.6.20) with almost the same config (I done a 'make oldconfig' command) and the card doesn't work anymore (the scsi host is not found on dmesg) I diff-ed megaraid.c from both versions and I noticed megaraid release from 2.6.11.6 is 2.00.3 while release from 2.6.20 is 2.00.4... I looked on the code with my little coding skills, and I understood the main differences are : * changing naming conventions for some data structures, * hardening some pieces of code when saving/restoring IRQs * adding some code for handling SCSI SENSE (don't know what it is for...) I never hacked linux kernel, nor scsi low-level drivers, so I have absolutelly no ideas of the way of debugging this code... So I wondered some kernel gurus here would be kind enough to give me some hints (maybe a howto or a cookbook exists ?) to try to debug by myself this module ! Thanks !
