Re: [Xen-devel] no "ata" sub-folder in linux-2.6.18-xen.hg/driver

["顾振宇" <jeff.zy.gu@xxxxxxxxx>]

I downloaded the corresponding kernel source code of RHEL5.2.

The srpm is kernel-2.6.18-92.el5.src.rpm
After extracting, the source of the kernel is in "usr/src/redhat/build/kernel-2.6.18/linux-2.6.18.i386".
( I can generate a runnable kernel for RHEL5.2 from this source code directory )

I dumped it in the linux-2.6.18-xen.hg directory, and removed the rule ".valid-src" in $(XEN_ROOT)/buildconfigs/src.hg-clone.
But it didn't work.

Can you give a more detailed explaination?

$cd $(XEN_ROOT)
$cd linux-2.6.18-xen.hg
$make mrproper
$cd ..
$make dist

After extracting, the source code of linux is in the directory "

It looks as if that is a RHEL5 base version of a kernel that did
not have the full complement of back-port SATA drivers.

I would suggest you just get the SRPM RPM of the RHEL5 U2, extract
it and dump it in the linux-2.6.18-xen.hg directory. Thought that
is a bit of a naive way of doing it and it might work.

No bug. Just an old version of RHEL5 there.
