Hi,

There is no patch in that bug report. While copying the whole directory might
be doable, it's not the first solution we would consider, and it would
definitely need a lot more testing.

Bugreport #891067 now updated with that information ( /ser/ versus /src/ )

   :-)

I think that question is some what crippled by a language problem 
or another source for misunderstanding.

Patch for Backport of the Linux MegaRAID driver for SAS based RAID controllers for Debian Stretch

2018-02-21 Thread Doru Iorgulescu
Package: linux-image-4.9.0-5-amd64
Version: 4.9.65-3+deb9u2

Dear kernel Mantainers,

backport of the megaraid_sas driver from kernel branch 4.14.x to kernel
branch 4.9.x

Scope:

Debian stretch use kernel branch 4.9.x

megaraid_sas driver inside kernel branch 4.9.x does not have support for
SAS3508
MegaRAID adapter in question whereas driver inside kernel branch 4.14.x
does have support
for SAS3508 MR adapter. Only way to resolve this problem is: backport driver
with support for this SAS3508 MR adapter to kernel branch 4.9.x


Hardware:

DMI: Intel Corporation S2600WFT/S2600WFT, BIOS
SE5C620.86B.00.01.0009.101920170742 10/19/2017

Test:

I copy /usr/src/linux-4.14.20/drivers/scsi/megaraid/ to
/usr/ser/linux-4.9.82/drivers/scsi/megaraid/
I compile the kernel 4.9.82, and the result is OK!

It is possible a kernel patch for that ?

I atached dmesg for Debian Buster on kernel 4.9.82

Thank you,
Doru Iorgulescu
