Summary0000558: Requesting kmod megaraid_mbox for x86_64 / x86_64-v2
Description(cut down version of lspci -v -v -v, with and without -m_
04:0e.0 RAID bus controller: Broadcom / LSI MegaRAID (rev 07)
04:0e.0 0104: 1000:0408 (rev 07)
    Subsystem: Broadcom / LSI MegaRAID SCSI 320-2E RAID Controller
    Subsystem: 1000:0002
    Kernel driver in use: megaraid
    Kernel modules: megaraid_mbox

Currently this is working on AlmaLinux 9 using kmod-megaraid_mbox. Hardware is Intel S5520HC with a Xeon X5500 (x86_64 v2 processor, so needs AlmaLinux x86_64-v2)
Planning to upgrade the servers to AlmaLinux 10

Posting here after reviewing this with elrepo, who suggested I approach the AlmaLinux team (due to x86_64-v2 which they currently don't plan to support) https://elrepo.org/bugs/view.php?id=1560

Thank you

Perhaps, it's easier to have the driver enabled in Alma's kernel.

CONFIG_MEGARAID_MM=m
CONFIG_MEGARAID_MAILBOX=m

@Alma devs,

Do you pick up a request for kernel config changes like this?

Also, this ticket needs to be moved to 'AlmaLinux-10'.
