Module Naming Conventions
3w-sas.* refers to the specific kernel driver module you will copy in the
examples shown in steps 3 and 4. The name of the kernel driver module you
will copy (
3w-sas.*
) varies, depending on the kernel; however you will
always copy it to a file named
3w-sas.ko
for 2.6 kernels. Depending on the
supported release, not all modules may be required or available.
The available kernel driver module files are:
•
For default kernels:
3w-sas.ko
•
For SMP kernels:
3w-sas.smp
•
For Bigmem kernels:
3w-sas.big
•
For i586 kernels:
3w-sas.586
•
For PAE kernels:
3w-sas.pae
•
For Xen kernels:
3w-sas.xen
