Re: [Cooker] no DMA in linux-2.6.0-0.test9.5mdk
Ok, you're using a VIA82CXXX IDE chipset. I've set CONFIG_BLK_DEV_VIA82CXXX=m in test9.5mdk, but, as Andrey pointed out, ide chipsets won't even load in current 2.6 state. I do not remember having said that :) I said that modular IDE is known to not work - but the only proof of that statement I have seen is post-halloween document. But I readily admit it is true. It is not an IDE job to actually load chipset drivers - it is a job of PCI hotplug. But - we get chicken and egg problem here. You have apparently no way to dynamically load IDE drivers at the kernel probes for disks. Nor do you have any way to even STATICALLY load them out of initrd because initrd is initialized too late. Ideally we want to skip IDE init until initram has been inited and load correct driver after that. I appreciate if someone could get a look. Olivier, thank you for config comparison, it is very useful, I will send a detailed comment later.

Re: [Cooker] no DMA in linux-2.6.0-0.test9.5mdk
A patch has been sent, but Alan waits the IDE code to be stable enough. he retired from active work for a year now so it is unlikely it is going to be fixed (by him) any time soon. But this problem can be avoided if we keep IDE support built-in (CONFIG_IDE=y, CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDE=y). So general IDE module won't load, but we can try to load IDE chipset modules. we are likely to have early initialization problem then. I do not know if it really possible to change chipset driver after it has already started (even the most generic one). The same for FB support :( [...] Can we assume that the module size is roughly the same size as if it was built-in ? probably. we get the same exported symbols (that are added to main kernel) and the same code. modpost adds some aliases so actually it will be smaller builtin. I can provide you the kernel config files from Fedora, made by Arjan van de Ven, his kernel is only 1.2 MiB IIRC. I would be really interested to see how Arjan packages kernel source. I've to work on kernel-2.6-source package too, I don't really know how I'll do it, perhaps a main kernel-2.6-source package with additionnals kernel-2.6-source-flavor binary packages that conflicts between them. I'm still thinking about it. Vanilla kernel build requires at least ($src refers to source kernel directory and $build to uidl kernel directory, They can differe, works just fine. Third directory $module is external module build directory) - $build/scripts/* be present. They are the same for all flavours - $build/vmlinux be present - it writes into $builld/.tmp_versions during build modversions adds - it requires *all* $build/**/module.o files - it writes in $build/.tmp_versions for new modules - it expects *all* modules be in $build/.tmp_versions. modpost is run on that list - moreover, it also requires all $build/**/*.ko files be present! - it leaves reference to $module under $build/.tmp_versions which means, it will attempt to access it when you build different module! all in all it means that - you must be root or $build/.tmp_versions must be all-writable - you actually have to ship large part of binary modules; and it is possible that due to make rules you even have to ship all intermediate *.o files :( I do not see how it is possible to cleanly compile external module in 2.6. It is completely screwed up.

Ok, you're using a VIA82CXXX IDE chipset. I've set CONFIG_BLK_DEV_VIA82CXXX=m in test9.5mdk, but, as Andrey pointed out, ide chipsets won't even load in current 2.6 state. I'll built-in ide chipsets back in next release. BTW, I'd like to know if the ide module is correctly detected by mkinitrd. Can you please try the following (as root) so I can check which modules are detected and added in the /lib of initrd ? cp /boot/initrd-2.6.0-0.test9.5mdk.img initrd-2.6-test9.5mdk.img.gz gunzip initrd-2.6-test9.5mdk.img.gz mkdir initrd-2.6-test9.5mdk mount initrd-2.6-test9.5mdk.img initrd-2.6-test9.5mdk -o loop ls initrd-2.6-test9.5mdk/lib umount initrd-2.6-test9.5mdk Thanks -- Olivier Blin
