All,
I have a question about the 5.0.5-k driver which is by default delivered with
CentOS 6.5. If I check later drivers it has some fixes for the chipset I'm
using (I210), I started doing this since I have some issues with IEE1588
timestamping. It seems to be a bit hard to get a newer version compiled on
CentOS 6.5, but I am worried about the fixes as such I would like to change to
a newer version.
I would prefer to stick with a *-k version since these seem to be more
appropriate for a CentOS release, is this assumption correct?
Newer *-k version don't seem to compile because of changed kernel header files
(for example struct pci_driver -> sriov_configure)
The 5.2.15 intel version compiles on CentOS6.5 but has a complete different set
of defines due to which IEEE1588 timestamping does not seems to work by default.
What would be your advice to do, either use the intel version (e.g. 5.2.15) and
try to compile this on CentOS 6.5 with correct defines, or backport the
IEEE1588 / PLL changes between intel version 5.0.5 and 5.2.13 to the 5.0.5-k
version?
Thanks in advance for any advice, I am quite new in this field.
Regards Tom
