Prova questo:
CONFIG_FUSION:
LSI Logic Fusion(TM) Message Passing Technology (MPT) device support
provides high performance SCSI host initiator, and LAN [1] interface
services to a host system. The Fusion architecture is capable of
duplexing these protocols on high-speed Fibre Channel
(up to 2 GHz x 2 ports = 4 GHz) and parallel SCSI (up to Ultra-320)
physical medium.
[1] LAN is not supported on parallel SCSI medium.
These drivers require a Fusion MPT compatible PCI adapter installed
in the host system. MPT adapters contain specialized I/O processors
to handle I/O workload, and more importantly to offload this work
from the host CPU(s).
If you have Fusion MPT hardware and want to use it, you can say
Y or M here to add MPT (base + ScsiHost) drivers.
<Y> = build lib (fusion.o), and link [static] into the kernel [2]
proper
<M> = compiled as [dynamic] modules [3] named: (mptbase.o,
mptscsih.o)
[2] In order enable capability to boot the linux kernel
natively from a Fusion MPT target device, you MUST
answer Y here! (currently requires CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD)
[3] This support is also available as a module ( = code
which can be inserted in and removed from the running
kernel whenever you want). If you want to compile as
modules, say M here and read
Documentation/modules.txt.
If unsure, say N.
If you say Y or M here you will get a choice of these
additional protocol and support module options: Module Name:
<M> Enhanced SCSI error reporting (isense.o)
<M> Fusion MPT misc device (ioctl) driver (mptctl.o)
<M> Fusion MPT LAN driver (mptlan.o)
---
Fusion MPT is trademark of LSI Logic Corporation, and its
architecture is based on LSI Logic's Message Passing Interface (MPI)
specification.
questo è quello che ho ricavato dagli help del kernel, forse ti possono essere
utili questi moduli "mptbase.o - mptscsih.o - mptctl.o"
(prendilo col beneficio dell'inventario, non conosco la macchina)
