[How to build and inject missing drivers in jun loader 1.02a]

I have removed the QLogic card and installed a Mellanox Connectx3, works so much better. Drivers are preinstalled.

I can see the MAC address of the card in Synology, but no connectivity. Tried swapping the Tx/Rx on one end.. Nothing..

Maybe the qlge is all I need...? Driver shows as in use. Maybe my issue is elsewhere..

 

lspci -k | grep 'Kernel driver'
        Kernel driver in use: pcieport
        Kernel driver in use: pcieport
        Kernel driver in use: ahci
        Kernel driver in use: ohci_hcd
        Kernel driver in use: ehci-pci
        Kernel driver in use: ohci_hcd
        Kernel driver in use: ehci-pci
        Kernel driver in use: ohci_hcd
        Kernel driver in use: ehci-pci
        Kernel driver in use: qlge

That is where I started, I downloaded that extra.lzma file, extra3615_v4.8.zip

Just need to get it loaded..

dont mind that you dont need it, as you are using a kernel source that include the header files you can ignore it

 

"qle" might not be precise enough to estimate what you are up to build

what driver so you want to build?

this qlogic drivers are already in the extra.lzma for 6.2.2
netxen_nic: QLogic/NetXen NIC
qla3xxx: QLogic QLA3XXX Network driver
qlcnic: QLOGIC QLCNIC 1/10Gb Converged Ethernet
qlge: QLogic QLGE 10Gb Ethernet

 

 

Thanks IG88.

I have tried to get the headers, but the apt install linux-headers-$(uname -r) says it is unable to locate linux-headers-3.10.102

How can I get passed the  make commands that fail?

 

I am running DSM 6.1.7-15284 Update 3. - DS3615xs

qlcnic: is what I need, it is a converged ethernet 10gb card. Actual model is QLE8152.

cp synoconfigs/bromolow .config

 

we make a fallback copy

make ARCH="x86_64" oldconfig

 

we start the ascii art menu and search for the missing driver to activate

cursor/return are your friend in navigating, space selects, we activate the driver to an "M" so its build as module (*.ko file we need)

there will be tons of descriptions how to do it, just google if needed

make ARCH="x86_64" menuconfig

 

on exit we save the configuration and with the following we make/create the modules (will take a while)

make ARCH="x86_64" modules

 

 

 

Help..... I am stuck at the above point in this process. I am trying to get a QLogic QLE card running in my box, it is listing within the extra.lzma file, but I cannot seem to get there.

I did have an issue running the initial command apt-get install mc make gcc build-essential kernel-wedge libncurses5 libncurses5-dev libelf-dev binutils-dev kexec-tools makedumpfile fakeroot linux-kernel-devel lzma bc - it failed on linux-kernal-devel.....

 

 

 

[10G NIC recommendations for DSM 6.2.2]

Hi, I also have N54L running DSM 6.1 and DS3615xs.

I am looking for 10gbe to connect to Cisco 3750x switch with 10GB trunk.

What model Mellanox card physically fits into the N54L?

IBM Mellanox Connectx-3 Dual-port SFP 10gbe Adapter 98Y2404 is what I am looking at....

 

Thanks in advance.
