Compiling a new kernel

Hi,
Currently, I am running Fienix Linux. I would like to compile a new kernel with support for LSI 9211-4i mps raid driver. I am not finding any documentation on how to do this in Fienix Linux.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Al

Hi Al,
It seems there is already a driver for the Linux kernel.
Link:
https://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/SCSI_MPT2SAS.html
But
CONFIG_SCSI_MPT2SAS is not set in the X5000 kernel config. I will add it to the final kernel 6.1 next week.
Cheers,
Christian

Finished. Here you are:

Please test your LSI card with the final kernel 6.1.

Hi Christian,
I upgraded to the latest version of Fienix and then installed the kernel. I can see from uname -a that it is using 6.1. I am get this error in my dmesg:
[ 3.846953] mpt3sas version 43.100.00.00 loaded
[ 3.847692] mpt2sas_cm0: 64 BIT PCI BUS DMA ADDRESSING SUPPORTED, total mem (16374864 kB)
[ 3.847851] mpt2sas_cm0: unable to map adapter memory! or resource not found
[ 3.847980] mpt2sas_cm0: failure at drivers/scsi/mpt3sas/mpt3sas_scsih.c:12348/_scsih_probe()!
What do I need to do to resolve this issue?
Thank you!

Please add
mem=3500M to the boot arguments and test your SAS card again.
Thanks

Okay, retesting.
