I am looking at developing a SATA driver. When I use menuconfig with version 3 of the kernel all of the SCSI driver options are gone. Is there a way to get them back?
Which default config are you using? From what I can see in the Xilinx GIT, CONFIG_BLOCK was removed from most of the configs in 2010-08-14. The SCSI and lot other stuff was dependent on this config setting. The xilinx_mmu_defconfig looks okay. Just guesses.
I'm using the sp605 config and then altering it to match my hardware. Not being a Linux expert can you tell me what determines the menu items when menuconfig is used?
I'm no expert either and I'm not familiar with the Microblaze platform. My comments are from tracing the Kconfigs in the kernel at the Xilinx GIT.
arch/microblaze/Kconfig - Config template for all microblaze boards. drivers/Kconfig - sourced by above drivers/scsi/Kconfig - sourced by above. Note depends requirements.
arch/microblaze/configs/sp605_le_defconfig - Board specific. Order of values listed should match definitions in arch/microblaze/Kconfig. You could try directly enabling BLOCK by changing the line # CONFIG_BLOCK is not set to CONFIG_BLOCK=y The xilinx_mmu_defconfig seems to okay with setting it. There should be a ""Enable the block layer"" in the menuconfig but I can't seem to find an "source block/Kconfig". Probably in another Kconfig file.
