Anyone built it?

The latest slackbuild doesn't work, fails with:

Code:

/tmp/SBo/open-iscsi-2.0.875/iscsiuio/src/unix/libs/qedi.c:523: undefined reference to `minor'

Which looks like it might have been fixed in later version, according to:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugr...cgi?bug=908160

However pulling latest release results in:

Code:

/usr/bin/ld: ../libopeniscsiusr/libopeniscsiusr.so: undefined reference to `kmod_module_probe_insert_module'
/usr/bin/ld: ../libopeniscsiusr/libopeniscsiusr.so: undefined reference to `kmod_module_unref'
/usr/bin/ld: ../libopeniscsiusr/libopeniscsiusr.so: undefined reference to `kmod_new'
/usr/bin/ld: ../libopeniscsiusr/libopeniscsiusr.so: undefined reference to `kmod_unref'
/usr/bin/ld: ../libopeniscsiusr/libopeniscsiusr.so: undefined reference to `kmod_load_resources'
/usr/bin/ld: ../libopeniscsiusr/libopeniscsiusr.so: undefined reference to `kmod_module_new_from_name'

Which looks like it requires this patch:

https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/c...ges/open-iscsi

Leading to:
https://github.com/open-iscsi/open-iscsi/issues/151 . (systemd requirement).

So I decided to pull from source, then build with

Code:

make NO_SYSTEMD=1

But no joy there either:

Code:

iscsid.c:38:10: fatal error: systemd/sd-daemon.h: No such file or directory
   38 | #include <systemd/sd-daemon.h>
      |

Just wondering what the next step is. Maybe try to get the old version working....

Ha!! I just made exactly those changes manually. Thanks anyway Matteo :-).

Just for info, with that fix, I am up-and-running with my target and initiator, both running slackware-current, nicely saturating my 1GB network.

Code:

hdparm -t /dev/sdb1

/dev/sdb1:
SG_IO: bad/missing sense data, sb[]:  72 05 20 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
 Timing buffered disk reads: 302 MB in  3.01 seconds = 100.43 MB/sec

Thank you Matteo (and thank you Slackware) for such amazing support.

kind regards,
Biff.

Just to follow-up (and to avoid anyone else bothering him), the maintainer has agreed to add that patch so the fixed version will show up on slackbuilds soon.
