Install TOA kernel

CentOS

Download one of the following rpm packets:

• CentOS 6 TOA (Click to download);
• CentOS 7 TOA (Click to download);

After the packet has been installed, restart the system to complete the installation process.

You can also create a rpm packet as follows:

1. Install kernel-2.6.32-220.23.1.el6.src.rpm:
   rpm -hiv kernel-2.6.32-220.23.1.el6.src.rpm

2. Generate a kernel source code directory:
   rpmbuild -bp ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/kernel.spec

3. Copy the source code directory:

   cd ~/rpmbuild/BUILD/kernel-2.6.32-220.23.1.el6/
   cp -a linux-2.6.32-220.23.1.el6.x86_64/ linux-2.6.32-220.23.1.el6.x86_64_new
   

4. Attach the following toa patch to the copied source code directory:

   cd ~/rpmbuild/BUILD/kernel-2.6.32-220.23.1.el6/linux-2.6.32-220.23.1.el6.x86_64_new/
   patch -p1 < /usr/local/src/linux-2.6.32-220.23.1.el6.x86_64.rs/toa-2.6.32-220.23.1.el6.patch
   

5. Edit .config and copy it to the SOURCE directory:

   sed -i 's/CONFIG_IPV6=m/CONFIG_IPV6=y/g' .config
   echo -e '\n# toa\nCONFIG_TOA=m' >> .config
   cp .config ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/config-x86_64-generic
   

6. Delete .config from the source code:

   cd ~/rpmbuild/BUILD/kernel-2.6.32-220.23.1.el6/linux-2.6.32-220.23.1.el6.x86_64
   rm -rf .config
   

7. Generate the final patch:

   cd ~/rpmbuild/BUILD/kernel-2.6.32-220.23.1.el6/
   diff -uNr linux-2.6.32-220.23.1.el6.x86_64 linux-2.6.32-220.23.1.el6.x86_64_new/ >
   ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/toa.patch
   

8. Edit kernel.spec:
   vim ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/kernel.spec
   Add the following lines to ApplyOptionPath (the buildid and the names of other custom kernel packets can also be modified)

   Patch999999: toa.patch
   ApplyOptionalPatch toa.patch
   

9. Create a rpm packet:
   rpmbuild -bb --with baseonly --without kabichk --with firmware --without debuginfo --target=x86_64 ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/kernel.spec

10. Install the kernel rpm packet:
    rpm -hiv kernel-xxxx.rpm --force

11. Restart the system to load TOA module.

In addition to the above,you can nstallation via Source Code too:

1. Download the source code package patched with TOA (Click to download）.
2. Decompress the package.
3. Edit .config, and change CONFIG_IPV6=M to CONFIG_IPV6=y.
4. You can edit Makefile to add a custom description.
5. make -jn (n is the number of threads).
6. Execute make modules_install ；.
7. Execute make install；.
8. Modify /boot/grub/menu.lst, and change default to the new kernel ("title" starts from 0).
9. toa kernel is loaded after Reboot.
10. Check whether the toa module is loaded by executing lsmod | grep toa. If not, enable it using the modprobe toa command.
