Re: How to add x32 ABI support to PCI driver

Hello Greg, I working on a char device driver. It is mostly based on the the scull device driver in the LDD book. It controls a HBA sitting on the PCIe BUS. Thanks, OH On Mon, Aug 11, 2014 at 10:07 PM, Greg KH <greg@kroah.com> wrote:

Im trying to port the PCI driver(supports only 32 bit) from 2.6.31 )o the latest kernel version using openSuse. Im doing it version by version. I was able to port it till 3.1 kernel version. In the kernel 3.4 there is feature called X32 ABI support. I'm not knowing how to add this.

A PCI driver should not care about the processor or userspace ABI at all. What type of driver are you working on? What hardware does it control?

thanks,
