Re: [Xen-API] Ethernet Driver for Atheros AR813x



I built a working driver for AR813x for XCP 1.1.  In my case, for an AR8131 on an MSI motherboard:

I have actually now built new drivers for AR813x for XCP 1.6 from AR81Family-linux-v1.0.1.14.tar.gz, but I don't think that will help you as the AR8162 doesn't seem to be in or supported by the AR81Family.

I built the whole thing (except for the bluetooth, which threw an error) against:

2.6.32.43-0.4.1.xs1.6.10.734.170748xen-i686 from kernel-xen-devel-2.6.32.43-0.4.1.xs1.6.10.734.170748.i686.rpm

Attached are the atheros ko's:

compat-wireless-3.6.8-1-snpc-XCP-1.6-61809c-atheros.zip\
    drivers\net\ethernet\atheros\alx\alx.ko
    drivers\net\ethernet\atheros\atl1c\atl1c.ko
    drivers\net\ethernet\atheros\atl1e\atl1e.ko
    drivers\net\ethernet\atheros\atlx\atl1.ko
    drivers\net\ethernet\atheros\atlx\atl2.ko

Let me know if they work for you..

For reference, the build is pretty straightforward.  In a CentOS 5.5 vm, I installed the kernel headers (from binpkg.iso) extracted the source package, and per the instructions, pointed it at the other kernel via:

make  KLIB=/usr/src/kernels/2.6.32.43-0.4.1.xs1.6.10.734.170748xen-i686 \
    KLIB_BUILD=/usr/src/kernels/2.6.32.43-0.4.1.xs1.6.10.734.170748xen-i686

(comment out the bluethooth stuff in Makefile)
