[PATCH] dpt_i2o: don't set DMA_64BIT_MASK [was: Re: [stable] broken dpt_i2o in 2.6.23 (was: ext2 check page: bad entry in directory) (fwd)]
According to Greg KH: So, what should be added to 2.6.23-stable then? And, can I get a real changelog entry for it? This is suitable for both 2.6.23.x and 2.6.24-rc5 : linux-2.6-dpt_i2o-no-dma64.patch The dpt_i2o driver can't handle 64 bit DMA addresses, so do not let it set pci_set_dma_mask(pDev, DMA_64BIT_MASK) .

I took a clean 2.6.23, applied patch, recompiled the kernel, reboot: works. What a huge patch :( We already reverted the offening patch so I assume that 2.6.24-rc5 is working for you? I guess we need to look at restoring dpt_i2o: convert to SCSI hotplug model and then absorbing what Miquel has done there. This was just a patch I had lying around, if it worked it would confirm my suspicion, which it has. The minimal patch which is suitable for 2.6.23-stable and 2.6.24 would be the attached one-liner. The dpt_i2o: convert to SCSI hotplug model patch could be restored then. (if the list eats the attachment, it's also available here: http://www.miquels.cistron.nl/linux/linux-2.6.23+24-dpt_i2o-dma64.patch ) Anders, does this one-liner patch work for you ?

I got the 64-bit dpt_i2o driver from Adaptec some time ago, and I have added 64-bit support to the 2.6.23.1 dpt_i2o driver based on that driver.

Re: [patch 20/23] aacraid driver fails with Dell PowerEdge Expandable RAID Controller 3/Di
In article [EMAIL PROTECTED] you write:
Path: news.xs4all.nl!newsspool.news.xs4all.nl!post.news.xs4all.nl!gateway
The enclosed patch introduces a new adapter quirk and tries to limp
along by enabling pass-through in situations where memory is 32 bit
addressable on 64 bit machines, or disable the pass-through functions
altogether. I expect that the check for 32 bit addressable memory to be
controversial in that it can be incorrect in non-Dell non-Intel systems
that PERC would never be installed under, the alternative is to disable
pass-through in all cases which could be reported as another regression.
+static int aac_scsi_32_64(struct fib * fib, struct scsi_cmnd * cmd)
+{
+ if ((sizeof(dma_addr_t) 4)
+ (num_physpages (0xULL PAGE_SHIFT))
+ (fib-dev-adapter_info.options AAC_OPT_SGMAP_HOST64))
+ return FAILED;
+ return aac_scsi_32(fib, cmd);
+}
I saw the same thing in the 64-bit dpt_i2o driver, but I
wonder, shouldn't this be something like:
#include linux/bootmem.h
if ((sizeof(dma_addr_t) 4)
(max_pfn (0xULL PAGE_SHIFT))
(fib-dev-adapter_info.options AAC_OPT_SGMAP_HOST64))
e.g. use max_pfn instead of num_physpages ?
Mike.
