The report should go to highpoint tech.

The Linux community is working on adding Highpoint 23xx support to the
standard sata_mv drivers, but HPT don't appear to document a lot of the
raid layout they use and hide it in a binary object module which makes it
somewhat problematic.

Compile error: patched 2.6.23-r3 with rr2310_00 drivers

[Alexander Rajula]

Compile error during "make" on patched 2.6.23-r3 with Highpoint-tech 
RocketRaid 2300 drivers.

Today I tried to upgrade the kernel on my server, with no luck.
The drivers for the Rocket Raid 2300 PCI express were patched onto the 
2.6.23-r3-kernel, but it fails to compile while doing make with the 
following error:

      CHK     include/linux/version.h
      CHK     include/linux/utsrelease.h
      CALL    scripts/checksyscalls.sh
      CHK     include/linux/compile.h
      CC      drivers/scsi/rr2310_00/os_linux.o
    drivers/scsi/rr2310_00/os_linux.c: In function 'os_sd_changed':
    drivers/scsi/rr2310_00/os_linux.c:315: error: implicit declaration
    of function 'scsi_device_cancel'
    make[3]: *** [drivers/scsi/rr2310_00/os_linux.o] Error 1
    make[2]: *** [drivers/scsi/rr2310_00] Error 2
    make[1]: *** [drivers/scsi] Error 2
    make: *** [drivers] Error 2



The same driver patched onto the 2.6.22 kernel compiles.

Is this a linux specific bug, or are the drivers from Highpoint-tech 
simply outdated?

I.e should this bug report be sent to Highpoint tech instead?

The drivers may be downloaded at
