This contains notes about trying to use some old SCSI hardware with AlmaLinux.
Found an old Adaptec AHA-2940AU 5 V PCI card. This has an external 50-pin high-density SE SCSI connector.
Inserted the AHA-2940AU in a Intel® Desktop Board DH67BL with a Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2310 CPU. The card was shown as present by the BIOS. The option ROM reports version 1.34.2 from 1998.
A HP Z4 G4 using a Xeon(R) W-2123 CPU was updated from AlmaLinux 8.9 to AlmaLinux 8.10, which updated the Kernel version. Following the update the boot hung. After the GRUB menu timeout when when to boot the default Kernel just got a black screen with a non-flashing text cursor at the top left of the screen. Didn't respond to the keyboard, so had to hold the the power button to force a power off. Hung in the same way in multiple boot attempts.
Secure boot is enabled.
As an initial work-around in the GRUB menu selected the previous Kernel version and when had booted used grubby to change the default Kernel to the previous version.
With CMake 3.26.5 attempted to add the following to check for the pci_get_string_property function being supprted in the pciutils-devel package:
CHECK_SYMBOL_EXISTS ("pci_get_string_property" pci/pci.h HAVE_PCI_GET_STRING_PROPERTY)With pciutils-devel-3.7.0-3.el8.x86_64 installed on AlmaLinux 8.9 the function exists, but CMake reported:
-- Looking for pci_get_string_property
-- Looking for pci_get_string_property - not found
The stack overflow CMake check_symbol_exists doesn't work because of missing -pthread explains CMake tries to compile a program to check the symbol exists, which can fail due to an unresolved symbol from the linker for a test program.
