Has anyone tried the driver lately? What happened. I would like to see a dmesg output. Also, some folks tried the original driver and evidently it sort of worked. (I saw this in an old email) If you are one of those people, what kernel version were you using? I also did not see if they where using M68K or APUS. I've been considering reloading M68K Linux to see if getting the driver to work there is easier. After all the NetBSD driver already works. Fred |

Tried it, but I see nothing.
Do I need a specific boothack version or boot-flags?
I'll try a complete rebuild just to be sure..
This is the dmesg I get with a compiled-in 53c770 driver (notice it's
absence ;-):

OK.. Undefining the 'PCI for Permedia2' option causes 'CONFIG_PCI' to go away and may help in getting the 53c770 to do a little more.. At least now it doesn't link anymore :-( drivers/scsi/scsidrv.o(.text.init+0x2584): undefined reference to `zorro_find' drivers/scsi/scsidrv.o(.text.init+0x2594): undefined reference to `zorro_get_board' drivers/scsi/scsidrv.o(.text.init+0x25c4): undefined reference to `zorro_config_board' I already got a bit worried when I saw this (among others) when it was compiling 53c770.c: 53c770.c: In function `ncr53c8xx_detect': 53c770.c:10101: warning: implicit declaration of function `zorro_find' 53c770.c:10102: warning: implicit declaration of function `zorro_get_board' 53c770.c:10102: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast 53c770.c:10108: warning: implicit declaration of function `zorro_config_board' Weren't those calls obsoleted and replaced a while back?

Fred's driver is based on the 53c8xx, which is PCI based and that code
is still in there.
This sort of thing kills the init when CONFIG_PCI is defined:
#ifdef CONFIG_PCI
static int ncr53c8xx_pci_init(Scsi_Host_Template *tpnt,
uchar bus, uchar device_fn, ncr_device *device);
#else
static int ncr53c770_init(Scsi_Host_Template *tpnt, unsigned long base,
unsigned int irq, ncr_device *device);
#endif

Or a more elegant solution in which case there wouldn't need to be a separate 53c770 driver, but included in an existing 53c8xx driver. As this is basically development code I don't really care. Just took me a while to figure out why it didn't seem tohave any effect when I compiled in the driver..

This is the best solution IMHO. Basically all the current LSI chips have about the same scripts processor and share a lot of the same features. Of course the very new chips began to diverge. All of the 53c8xx drivers I have looked at have the same basic data structures. This is for the 53c810 chip on up. The biggest stumbling point I can see is that the 8xx series of chips is very PCI so the routines that heavily depend on PCI has to have the correct logic figured out to accommodate both. >As this is basically development code I don't really care. Just took me >a while to figure out why it didn't seem tohave any effect when I >compiled in the driver.. I am playing with different driver code at the moment, the sym53c8xx.c code. My reason for switching is that it shares the new style data structures and should be easier to merge into the newest versions, if that ever becomes possible. I have gotten the newer code to get to the cache test, where it fails to execute the SCSI scripts code, though everything looks "right". For example, the correct addresses and so forth appear. There is some very basic problem with making the 53c770 chip work with Linux or PowerPC. The problem has to be PPC or APUS related because those same 53c8xx chips are used in PCI cards that work on a variety of other architectures and Linuxes. I have been trying to figure out what the differences could be. BTW the newer drivers have a sort of generic mb() support as well. I really don't want to start looking at assembly code, but ultimately that may be what has to be done. i.e. find the driver sections that misbehave in the kernel assembler code and see if the code looks "right." (Any tips on how one goes about doing that would be appreciated.) Additionally, Richard Hirst has gotten the 770 chip to work on a HP system. He had to make a few modifications to the actual SCSI routines in the code to take into account small differences between the 8xx and 770 SCSI processors. There is another problem as well. All the PCI based cards have ROMs or NVRAM onboard that store the initial setting of the SCSI chip. The correct initial settings of the 53c770 chip has to be found. Sorry in advance for rambling on and probably repeating myself from previous posts. Fred |

It's too bad Phase 5 didn't use a LSI PCI SCSI chip. Creating a driver may have been much easier then. BTW I have found another thing I was wrong about. I thought most of the LSI chips had the same or nearly the same script processor. After looking at the scripts.pdf document from the LSI web site, I see that some of the instructions or instruction variations are not supported on the 770 chip. Fred |
