[Bug 250428] New: leak of advansys.ko module in 64 bit kernel
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=250428 Summary: leak of advansys.ko module in 64 bit kernel Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: kernel-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: diego.ercolani@yacme.com QAContact: qa@suse.de I've found that 64-bit version of the current kernel 2.6.18.2-34-default doesn't rovide the advansys.ko scsi card module. I've compiled it installing sources package and then: cp /usr/src/linux-2.6.18.2-34-obj/x86_64/default/Module.symvers /usr/src/linux cd /usr/src/linux make cloneconfig make modules_prepare cd drivers/scsi make -C /usr/src/linux CONFIG_SCSI_ADVANSYS=m SUBDIRS=$(pwd) cp advansys.ko /lib/modules/2.6.18.2-34-default/kernel/drivers/scsi/ depmod -a then modprobe advansys.ko I have only some warnings about old style kernel structures during compilation so it may be necessary to clean the source and then reenable the module in the x86-64 bit version. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

Unless someone steps up and fixes this driver I fear it'll stay as it is. So here's your chance to get involved with linux kernel hacking :-) Until then it'll stay broken on 64-bit architectures. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
