[OpenAFS] 1.4.0rc5 SRPMS with amd64 problems...

Mon, 03 Oct 2005 14:30:08 -0700

I'm trying to work with the SRPM's for 1.4.0rc5. 

We are compiling IBM xSeries 346 with Xeon cpu's. We have RHEL AS v4 64 AMD64/Intel EM64T installed on one system and RHEL AS v3 for AMD64/Intel EM64T on the other system.

Both systems are smp systems, though uname -r on the RHEL4 system responds with:
Linux rfs2.uits.iupui.edu 2.6.9-11.ELsmp #1 SMP Fri May 20 18:25:30 EDT 2005 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

while the RHEL3 responds with:
Linux rfs-gw2.iu.edu 2.4.21-37.EL #1 SMP Wed Sep 7 13:32:18 EDT 2005 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

The afs system type for both appears to be amd64_linux. 

On the RHEL4 system the RPM's refuse to build a kernel-smp module to install. 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] openafs-1.4.0-rc5]# ls /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/x86_64/

openafs-docs-1.4.0rc5-1.1.x86_64.rpm

If I install the openafs-kernel rpm, the /etc/init.d/openafs-client start fails because it can't find an smp kernel module:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] openafs-1.4.0-rc5]# /etc/init.d/openafs-client start
Starting openafs-client: FATAL: Module openafs not found.
failed to load openafs kernel module.                      [FAILED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED] openafs-1.4.0-rc5]# rpm -ql openafs-kernel
/lib/modules/2.6.9-11.EL/kernel/fs/openafs/openafs.ko


Under RHEL3, I have a different problem. The module loads but then afsd fails to start. I get an error in the /var/log/messages that seems to indicate that the openafs module is built for 32 bit rather than 64 bit.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] x86_64]# /etc/init.d/openafs-client start

[EMAIL PROTECTED] x86_64]# tail /var/log/messages

Any ideas?

Thanks.
