Re: Matching KEXT build versions to kernel build versions
site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: darwin-kernel@lists.apple.com
I need to get source code for some of the KEXTs that go along with 10.6.7. When I execute "kextstat" against a 10.6.7 kernel I get (for example):
14 21 0x908000 0x11000 0x10000 com.apple.iokit.IOPCIFamily (2.6) <7 5 4 3>
This seems to suggest that what I want is source for IOPCIFamily version 2.6. But when I look at http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/ (or http://www.opensource.apple.com/tarballs/) I see options like IOPCIFamily-144/. There seems to be two different numbering systems in use.
What I personally do is go to the web page that has all of the sources for a particular OS version. If you start at the root of that web page (http://www.opensource.apple.com) and select the 10.6.7 release, you will find that the version of IOPCIFamily you want is 115. If you're curious about the version numbered "2.6", you can check that in Info.plist file in the package (I guess in this case, it is named "Info-IOPCIFamily.plist"). In that version the CFBundleShortVersionString is 2.6.1 (Huh, I'm surprised that it shows up just as 2.6 for you; on my copy of 10.6.8 it shows 2.6.5). --Ken _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
