Hello Ameet Patil

I am looking for linux kernel source 2.6.16 with system ace controller 
support. I downloaded the linux-2.6.16 and linux-2.6.17-1 source from 
kernel.org but could not find any files related to system ace 
controller  ( No xilinx_sysace directory in  drivers/block/) .  I have 
checked penguinppc.org also but could not get it.

Can you please send to me the link where i could download the 
linuxppc-2.6.16 source with system ace support.

Thanks & Regards
Sudheer

Hi Raja,
    I have ported the Xilinx System ACE driver to 2.6 kernel. Find the 
latest one here:
http://www.cs.york.ac.uk/rtslab/demos/amos/xupv2pro/patches/linuxppc-2.6.17.1-sysace-1.2.patch

NOTE: this patch wouldn't work if you are using the TEMAC driver. In 
which case use the -after-TEMAC patch found in the patches folder above.

Check the following discussions (threads) for more details:
1. "Xilinx SystemACE driver for 2.6"
2. "Xilinx BSP for linux 2.6"
3. "Kernel hangs after "Now booting the kernel"."

cheers,
-Ameet

 Hi all,
 We are working on customized board with amcc 440SPe
processor & xilinx System Ace controller. The System
Ace controller is connected to compact flash driver.

We use u-boot 1.2 as bootloader & linux kernel
2.6.16-2.

On the process the u-boot is able to detect compact
flash through Xilinx SystemAce controller & able to
load the kernel image into compact flash.But when the
linux boot's up it not able to detect the System Ace
controller or compact flash.

Note:we need to have the root file system in compact
flash.

Is their any drivers available for SystemAce
controller on linux 2.6,if their how to get it.please
help me in this
                                    with regards
                                     raja

Sudheer,

You need to download the SystemAce patch and apply it to the 2.6.17.1 
Kernel.  The patch can be downloaded from: 
http://www.cs.york.ac.uk/rtslab/demos/amos/xupv2pro/patches/linuxppc-2.6.17.1-sysace-1.2.patch

Save the patch to the root of the Kernel sources and run the following 
command:
patch -p1 < linuxppc-2.6.17.1-sysace-1.2.patch
