Drivers socal on E3500

[Sebastien LANGE <doownek@doownek.org>]

Hi,

I try to install Sarge with net boot but the installer doesn't find the
driver for fibre channel scsi controller.
It's normal because the module is not present so I've compile the module
socal with the microcode.

I've extract the microcode:

$ objdump -x socal

socal:     file format elf64-sparc
socal
architecture: sparc:v9, flags 0x00000011:
HAS_RELOC, HAS_SYMS
start address 0x0000000000000000

00000000000003cc g     O .data  0000000000010000 socal_ucode
00000000000103cc g     O .data  0000000000000004 socal_ucode_end


$ dd if=socal of=socal.ucode bs=1 skip=30380 count=64K

72e0 + 03cc = 76ac in hexa and in decimal => 30380 (skip)

Then I have to do:

cat socal.ucode | od -t "x1" | grep ` ` | sed `1i static __u32
socal_ucode [ ] __ initdata = { ;s/^[0-9a-f]* /0x/;s/
/,0x/g;s/$/,/;$a};` > socal_asm.h

After I uncomment HAVE_SOCAL_UCODE in socal.c and I've recompile the module.

If load the module, I've not message and I can only to make stop-a.

Where is the problem ?

Excuse me for my bad english :-(
