I've attached a patch I use to get the wis-go7007 driver to compile. This patch has worked on my system since kernel version 2.6.17 and I have recently used it with kernel 2.6.18.3 (just compiled and worked). Seems to work great on my amd64 system using mythtv. # emerge --info Portage 2.1.1-r2 (default-linux/amd64/2006.1/desktop, gcc-4.1.1, glibc-2.4-r4, 2.6.18-gentoo-r2 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.18-gentoo-r2 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3800+ Gentoo Base System version 1.12.6 Last Sync: Sun, 03 Dec 2006 03:30:01 +0000 ccache version 2.3 [enabled] app-admin/eselect-compiler: [Not Present] dev-java/java-config: 1.3.7, 2.0.30 dev-lang/python: 2.4.3-r4 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r5 dev-util/ccache: 2.3 dev-util/confcache: [Not Present] sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.60 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1-r3 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.3.13-r4 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe -march=k8" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/gconf /etc/java-config/vms/ /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -pipe -march=k8" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig ccache distlocks metadata-transfer sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://distfiles.gentoo.org http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j4" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude='/distfiles' --exclude='/local' --exclude='/packages'" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage /usr/portage/local/layman/sunrise" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X a52 aim alsa amd64 arts avi berkdb bitmap-fonts cairo cdparanoia cdr cli cracklib crypt css cups dbus divx4linux dlloader dri dv dvb dvd dvdr dvdread eds elibc_glibc emboss encode esd fam firefox flac flame fmpeg font-server fortran gdbm gif gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 hal iconv icq input_devices_keyboard input_devices_mouse ipod ipv6 isdnlog java jikes joystick jpeg kde kernel_linux ldap libg++ lirc lirc_devices_streamzap mad mikmod mime mozilla mp3 mpeg msn musicbrainz mysql ncurses net nls nptl nptlonly nsplugin nvidia ogg oggvorbis opengl oss pam pcre perl png ppds pppd python qt qt3 qt4 quicktime readline reflection samba sdl session spell spl ssl streamzap subtitles tcpd truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts udev unicode userland_GNU vcd video_cards_fbdev video_cards_nv video_cards_nvidia video_cards_vesa vorbis widescreen xcomposite xine xml xorg xv xvid xvmc yahoo zeroconf zlib" Unset: CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
Created attachment 103288 [details, diff] Patch to get wis-go7007 to compile on newer kernels.
Created attachment 104247 [details, diff] Patch to make wis drivers run on kernel 2.6.19 snd_card_free_in_thread is deprecated (and thus missing) in the ALSA in kernel 2.6.19. I've replaced it with a call to snd_card_free. This seems to work, although I'm not quite sure if this is the entirely correct solution. However, in a pinch it'll work. This patch includes the patch posted above.
I should note that the original patch I posted is needed for 2.6.17 and 2.6.18 (as the package is currently in portage, it will only compile for kernel 2.6.16 and possibly older kernels.) The best solution (IMHO) would be to update the ebuild so that it would apply the first patch for kernel 2.6.17 or 2.6.18 and apply the new patch submitted by Greg for kernel 2.6.19
Patch looks good except: - it includes a temporary file copy - you should use snd_card_free_when_closed() instead of _free_in_thread dropping block on 156669 as this is not a 2.6.19 regression
Created attachment 107744 [details, diff] Updated patch for module to compile in 2.6.19 kernel Driver patch fixed as per previous comment.
I combined your patches into one and added it to ebuild 0.9.8-r1. Thanks for the patches.
