55
562. Rebuild the kernel with RR18xx support
57--------------------------------------------
58
59  1) Install kernel source package and building tools. 
60  
61  2) Extract the driver files under the kernel source tree:
62
63     # cd /usr/src/sys/
64     # tar xvzf /your/path/to/rr18xx-opensource-v1.12-bsd.tgz
65
66  3) Update the kernel configuration file to include the HighPoint source.
67     Assume the configure file is GENERIC, and new kernel configure file is 
68     MYKERNEL:
69
70     # cd i386/conf          (or amd64/conf for AMD64)
71     # cp GENERIC MYKERNEL
72
73  4) Edit MYKERNEL, and add the following line under "RAID controllers 
74     interfaced to the SCSI subsystem":
75
76          device  hptmv   #HighPoint RocketRAID 18xx
77
78  5) For i386 system, edit /usr/src/sys/conf/files.i386 and append the lines
79     shown below:
80
81          hptmvraid.o optional    hptmv  \
82              dependency  "$S/dev/hptmv/i386-elf.raid.o.uu" \
83              compile-with    "uudecode < $S/dev/hptmv/i386-elf.raid.o.uu" \
84              no-implicit-rule
85
86          dev/hptmv/gui_lib.c     optional        hptmv
87          dev/hptmv/hptproc.c     optional        hptmv
88          dev/hptmv/ioctl.c       optional        hptmv
89          dev/hptmv/entry.c       optional        hptmv
90          dev/hptmv/mv.c          optional        hptmv
91
92     For amd64 system, edit /usr/src/sys/conf/files.amd64 and append the lines
93     shown below:
94
95          hptmvraid.o optional    hptmv  \
96              dependency  "$S/dev/hptmv/amd64-elf.raid.o.uu" \
97              compile-with    "uudecode < $S/dev/hptmv/amd64-elf.raid.o.uu" \
98              no-implicit-rule
99
100          dev/hptmv/gui_lib.c     optional        hptmv
101          dev/hptmv/hptproc.c     optional        hptmv
102          dev/hptmv/ioctl.c       optional        hptmv
103          dev/hptmv/entry.c       optional        hptmv
104          dev/hptmv/mv.c          optional        hptmv
105
106     Note FreeBSD 5.3/5.4/6.x/7.x i386 already have a built-in RR18xx driver,
107     you should replace the old configuration lines with the lines listed above.
108
109
110  6) Rebuild and install the kernel:
111
112     a) for FreeBSD 5.x/6.x/7.x i386:
113     
114        # cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/
115        # /usr/sbin/config MYKERNEL
116        # cd ../compile/MYKERNEL/
117        # make depend
118        # make 
119        # make install
120
121     b) for FreeBSD 5.x/6.x/7.x amd64:
122
123        # cd /usr/src/sys/amd64/conf/
124        # /usr/sbin/config MYKERNEL
125        # cd ../compile/MYKERNEL/
126        # make depend
127        # make 
128        # make install
129
130     c) for FreeBSD 4.x:
131     
132        # cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/
133        # /usr/sbin/config MYKERNEL
134        # cd ../../compile/MYKERNEL/
135        # make depend
136        # make 
137        # make install
138
139    If the driver was previously configured as an auto-loaded module by
140    /boot/defaults/loader.conf, please remove the entry hptmv_load="YES"
141    from loader.conf to prevent the driver from being loaded twice.
142    
143  7) Reboot from the new kernel.
144
145
1463. Build/Load the driver as a kernel module
147------------------------------------------------
148
149  1) Install kernel source package and building tools. 
150  
151  2) Extract the driver files under the kernel source tree:
152    
153     # cd /usr/src/sys/
154     # tar xvzf /your/path/to/rr18xx-opensource-v1.12-bsd.tgz
155
156
157  4) Build the driver module:
158    
159     # cd modules/hptmv
160     # make
161
162  5) Copy the driver module to the kernel module directory
163
164     For FreeBSD 4.x:
165     
166     # cp hptmv.ko /modules/
167
168     For FreeBSD 5.x/6.x/7.x:
169    
170     # cp hptmv.ko /boot/kernel/
171
172  6) Reboot and load the driver under loader prompt. e.g:
173
174        BTX loader 1.00  BTX version is 1.01
175        Console: internal video/keyboard
176        BIOS driver A: is disk0
177        BIOS driver C: is disk2
178        BIOS 636kB/74512kB available memory
179        
180        FreeBSD/i386 bootstrap loader, Revision 0.8
181        (mailto:jkh@narf.osd.bsdi.com, Sat Apr 21 08:46:19 GMT 2001)
182        Loading /boot/defaults/loader.conf
183        /kernel text=0x24f1db data=0x3007ec+0x2062c -
184        
185        Hit [Enter] to boot immediagely, or any other key for command prompt.
186        Booting [kernel] in 9 seconds

188         <-- press SPACE key here 
189        Type '?' for a list of commands, 'help' for more detailed help.
190        ok load hptmv
191        /modules/hptmv.ko text=0xf571 data=0x2c8+0x254
192        ok boot
193        
194     For FreeBSD 5.x/6.x/7.x, you can select 6 on the boot menu to get a loader prompt.
195  
196  7) You can add a below line into /boot/defaults/loader.conf to load the
197     driver automatically:
198    
199           hptmv_load="YES"
200    
201     Please refer to the installation guide in HighPoint FreeBSD driver release 
202     package for more information.
