It's a kernel with some hardware patches for arm architecture that are hard to port to newer kernels, so compat-wireless would be very helpful. compat-wireless-2.6.32.8 compiles just fine with ath5k selected. compat-wireless-2.6.33-rc8 fails: /home/proski/src/compat-wireless-2.6.33-rc8/net/mac80211/util.c: In function '__ieee80211_wake_queue': /home/proski/src/compat-wireless-2.6.33-rc8/net/mac80211/util.c:290: error: implicit declaration of function 'netif_tx_wake_queue' /home/proski/src/compat-wireless-2.6.33-rc8/net/mac80211/util.c:290: error: implicit declaration of function 'netdev_get_tx_queue' /home/proski/src/compat-wireless-2.6.33-rc8/net/mac80211/util.c: In function '__ieee80211_stop_queue': /home/proski/src/compat-wireless-2.6.33-rc8/net/mac80211/util.c:325: error: implicit declaration of function 'netif_tx_stop_queue' compat-wireless-2010-02-13 fails differently: /home/proski/src/compat-wireless-2010-02-13/net/mac80211/iface.c: In function 'ieee80211_if_setup': /home/proski/src/compat-wireless-2010-02-13/net/mac80211/iface.c:738: error: 'struct net_device' has no member named 'select_queue' /home/proski/src/compat-wireless-2010-02-13/net/mac80211/iface.c: In function 'ieee80211_setup_sdata': /home/proski/src/compat-wireless-2010-02-13/net/mac80211/iface.c:790: error: 'struct net_device' has no member named 'select_queue' I tried enabling CONFIG_NETDEVICES_MULTIQUEUE, but it made no difference. It looks like compat-wireless-2.6.33-rc8 and compat-wireless-2010-02-13 don't have the patches to deal with the lack of netif_tx_wake_queue and select_queue in Linux 2.6.26. compat-wireless-2.6.32.8 has such patches. If all drivers are selected, compat-wireless-2.6.32.8 fails: In file included from /home/proski/src/compat-wireless-2.6.32.8/drivers/net/b44.c:28: /home/proski/src/compat-wireless-2.6.32.8/include/linux/ssb/ssb.h: In function 'ssb_dma_sync_single_range_for_cpu': /home/proski/src/compat-wireless-2.6.32.8/include/linux/ssb/ssb.h:595: error: implicit declaration of function 'dma_sync_single_range_for_cpu' /home/proski/src/compat-wireless-2.6.32.8/include/linux/ssb/ssb.h: In function 'ssb_dma_sync_single_range_for_device': /home/proski/src/compat-wireless-2.6.32.8/include/linux/ssb/ssb.h:620: error: implicit declaration of function 'dma_sync_single_range_for_device' That appears to be caused by the lack of dma_sync_single_range_for_device on the arm architecture. Other architectures have it. "make -k" doesn't find any other errors. All other drivers compile fine. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin
