I've come across this problem as well today. The RAID controller is not
recognized by the kernel ("unknown pci device") as the PCI id appears to be
different to any listed in /sys/dev/ida/ida_pci.c
The "unknown device" is given as (from memory!):
vendorid = 0x0e11
deviceid = 0xb060
My guess is that the board_id array in ida_pci.c needs to be populated with
an appropriate set of ids. Not sure if its version 3 or 4 of the access
functions though.
I'm going to build some example kernels using the following different
board_id settings:
{ 0xB0600E11, "Compaq SMART 5300 array controller", &ida_v4_access, 0 },
and
{ 0xB0600E11, "Compaq SMART 5300 array controller", &ida_v3_access, 0 },
and
{ 0xB0600E11, "Compaq SMART 5300 array controller", &ida_v4_access,
IDA_FIRMWARE },
Does this sound reasonable?
Thanks,
Richard
