This is what i use to diff 2 different kernels

Real Programmers consider "what you see is what you get" to be just as
bad a concept in Text Editors as it is in women. No, the Real Programmer
wants a "you asked for it, you got it" text editor -- complicated,
cryptic, powerful, unforgiving, dangerous.

Or you take the two patches and use interdiff [1].

Alan, Doug,
If this is a known problem -- ignore. Otherwise, I will gladly assist as
much as you need.
Just tried ac5 kernel and, behold (btw, why does serial console not work
anymore, I had to copy these by hand):
(scsi0) BRKADRINT error(0x44):
Illegal Opcode in sequencer program
PCI Error detected
(scsi0) SEQADDR=0x58
Kernel panic: aic7xxx: unrecoverable BRKADRINT
The Linux 2.4.2-pre1 works fine. Next thing I was thinking was to try ac4
and also to try on a different machine which has a different revision of
the same type of aic7xxx HBA.
Any more ideas?
Regards,
Tigran

I am running ac5 on a AHA-2940U2/W, no problem.
I patched the kernel with a patch from Doug Ledford posted in the list.

Problems with disks and CD-ROMs connected to non-Ultra2 controllers is
confirmed and I think my fix is just about done (currently testing a minor
sequencer change to solve the problem, I cleared SG_COUNT when I shouldn't
have, which meant disconnects in the middle of a transfer spelled death for
the transfer, resulting in a data overrun on reconnect, and this problem only
shows up on non-Ultra2 controllers under real transfers scenarios, which my
testing missed because I was using all Ultra2 controllers, so I built another
test machine with non-Ultra2 controllers to check my fix)
