Bug#440161: Adding support for i2o RAID adapters

2008-01-25 Thread Nathan Stratton Treadway 
I noticed the following question from Otavio Salvador in the discussion
for bug #440161:

> I still fail to understand how i2o_block will work for your device if
> it's not registered for it on pcialias file ... that makes me worry
> about it.

I think the answer to the question is that the i2o_core module also
supports the "0x000e" class.  For example, the modules.pcimap file
for our 2.6.18-5-k7 installation includes the following line:

i2o_core 0x 0x 0x 0x 0x000e 
0x0000 0x0


This matches the "I2O" class of the Adaptec 2100S card:
  # lspci -nn
  [...]
  00:0a.1 I2O [0e00]: Adaptec (formerly DPT) SmartRAID V Controller [1044:a501] 
(rev 02)



Earlier in the thread there was a mention that the following two devices
were listed in modules.pcimap as being supported by i2o_core:
>  1044:a511 dpt_i2o i2o_core
>  8086:1962 i2o_core

I believe these two device ids are listed specifically in order support
two particular types of cards that don't match the 0x0e00 class:

  http://i2o.shadowconnect.com/faq.php#promise
  http://i2o.shadowconnect.com/faq.php#zerochannel

[More specifically, for the Promise card the line from modules.pcimap is:
# pci module vendor device subvendor  subdevice  class  
class_mask driver_data
i2o_core 0x8086 0x1962 0x105a 0x 0x 
0x 0x0

, and /usr/share/misc/pci.ids lists that vendor/device/subvendor as as:
---
8086  Intel Corp. 
[...]
1962  80960RM [i960RM Microprocessor]
105a   SuperTrak SX6000 I2O CPU
---

Similarly, the Zero Channel card reports itself as class "0104", according
to "lspci -n" output included at the bottom of

   https://www.redhat.com/archives/rhl-beta-list/2004-October/msg01321.html

, and so the driver needs to support that specific card by device id. ]


Hope this helps.

Nathan

Yes, it looks to be the right solution.

I still fail to understand how i2o_block will work for your device if
it's not registered for it on pcialias file ... that makes me worry
about it.

Thanks! I tested your image with GRUB yesterday, and the installation
works out just fine. When booting it seems like dpt_i2o is loaded
before i2o_{block,core}, which gives this error message:

  iop0: device already claimed
  iop0: DMA / IO allocation for I2O controller failed
 
  ALERT!  /dev/i2o/hda1 does not exist.  Dropping to a shell!
  Check your root= boot argument (cat /proc/cmdline)
  Check for missing modules (cat /proc/modules), or device files (ls /dev/)
 
  Busybox ...

I checked that dpt_i2o was loaded. I guess dpt_i2o should be added to
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist on the installed system, or?

Thanks for the tests and logs.  I made a mistake in a sed expression
that is both present in lilo-installer and grub-installer.  *sigh*

I have update the test image at:

During installation everything seems to work great. The i2o_block and
i2o_core modules are loaded, and the partitioner finds the
/dev/i2o/hda-device and uses it. Even (/target)/etc/fstab looks fine
using the /dev/i2o/hda-devicepaths.

The problem is when trying to install grub or lilo. First
syslog-entries from grub-installer:

As discussed on IRC, this is not enough to support RAID adapters using
i2o_block.  Attached is a first attempt of adding the other bits.
