I've sent this to 3ware, they are going to look into it, but I figured I'd
ask here as well. I've got 3 machines with this problem.
When running 2.4.10, everything works fine, as soon as I move to 2.4.16
though, the 3ware 3dm process no longer works, it claims to get a ioctl
error 'no such device or address'. Interesting thing is - from the below
output, looks like the ioctl worked.
The drive itself (sda) is working just fine, and I'm getting the AEN notices
about drive status in kmesg logs. I have not tried anything more recent
prior to 2.4.16 though.
I did try backing the 3w-xxxx.[ch] off to the version in 2.4.10, which
didn't help. This problem occurs when built with gcc302 or rh71's kgcc (egcs
1.1.2).
Does anyone have a working 2.4.16+3ware setup?

Subject: Problems with 3dm and 2.4.16...
I just tried moving a couple machines to 2.4.16, and found that 3dm now does
not work. At startup, it is getting an error on the ioctl(4, ...) call.
Any idea what might be happening? It's been working fine with 2.4.10.
Here's the relevant chunk of strace:

Not that this is necessarily the problem, but neither of those
compilers is recommended for compiling 2.4.X--you should be using
2.95.3+ or Red Hat's 2.96 (with errata fixes).
See Documentation/Changes in the kernel source tree.

Which version of 3dm are you running? Rumour has it (on
[email protected]) that 3dm version 1.10 will solve
this problem. I have not yet upgraded my storage machines, however.
Perhaps tomorrow.

I have just set up 3dmd on a SuSE Linux 7.3 file server with kernel
2.4.15-pre7-xfs (from the XFS CVS tree) and get exactly the ioctl
error Nathan described with the web interface saying "Error: No
Controllers Found".
3dmd reports version 1.10.00.020, so the problem doesn't seem to be
fixed.
I set up a similar server with SuSE Linux 7.2 and kernel
2.4.15-pre7-xfs a while back, which causes no such problems.
Nathan, did you get any reply from 3ware support so far?
I have CC'd them again...

It doesn't seem to be worh it... :-(
