This is due to a bug in the 2.6.32 kernel, and the messages can safely be ignored.
Switching interrupt types with newer kernels might cause errors
With newer Linux kernels, switching interrupt types after initial driver load might cause the kernel to report
doIRQ errors. As a workaround, reboot your system before loading the driver with the new interrupt type
specified.
Stop fio-snmp-agentx when the IO Accelerator driver is unloaded
If the IO Accelerator driver is unloaded and you are running the snmpd and fio-snmp-agentx commands
with the fio-snmp-agentx configured to write to a log file, then stop the fio-snmp-agentx. Otherwise,
the fio-snmp-agentx continually logs error messages to the log file, stating that it is unable to access IO
Accelerator device information. No issues are created with the system other than unnecessary file space
consumption.
Compiler Cache causes driver src.rpm rebuild failures on some
distributions
If the ccache package is installed, rebuilding the IO Accelerator driver src.rpm might fail with an error
similar to the following:
CC [M]
/root/fio/iomemory-vls-<version>/root/usr/src/iomemory-vsl/driver_init.o
/root/fio/iomemory-vls-<version>/root/usr/src/iomemory-vsl/driver_init.c:116
:
error: initializer element is not constant
[...]
To enable the driver to rebuild, remove the ccache package or disable ccache.
Windows-specific issues
The following issues apply only to systems running Windows operating systems.
