| Summary | 0001314: Please provide a kmod for the mptctl kernel driver for el8 | ||||
| Description | Request filed by Andrew Watters on the mailing list: "Is there any chance support for the mptctl module be added for el8/el9? It seems like several raid management utilities like lsiutil and mpt-status rely on this, even if the raid card itself runs on mptsas" | ||||
| Additional Information | Quoting from https://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/FUSION_CTL.html CONFIG_FUSION_CTL: Fusion MPT misc device (ioctl) driver "The Fusion MPT misc device driver provides specialized control of MPT adapters via system ioctl calls. Use of ioctl calls to the MPT driver requires that you create and use a misc device node ala: mknod /dev/mptctl c 10 240 One use of this ioctl interface is to perform an upgrade (reflash) of the MPT adapter firmware. Refer to readme file(s) distributed with the Fusion MPT linux driver for additional details. If enabled by saying M to this, a driver named: mptctl will be compiled." | ||||

The mptctl.ko driver module now ships as part of the kmod-mptsas package (as there are inter-module dependencies). Please install or update kmod-mptsas and let us know if this is now working as expected. The following updated package has been released to the main elrepo repository and should be available on our mirror sites shortly: kmod-mptsas-3.04.20-8.el8_7.elrepo.x86_64.rpm kmod-mptsas-3.04.20-8.el8_7.elrepo.src.rpm Thanks |

Please Note: this release also obsoletes the kmod-mptspi package which has also been merged into kmod-mptsas (which now provides all the fusion drivers) |
