看起來shim就是全稱(夾在縫隙裡頭的墊片? 填充物料? 說成"補充包"似乎比較好懂些)
這是Adaptec driver裡readme 說到的
SHIM package that includes a script, source code, and a binary library of object files that you use to create a new driver that is compatible with your updated Linux kernel.
一開始我貼的那些是LSI driver的檔案,沒有什麼說明,想組回成driver,看起來有得研究了
adaptec倒是說明不少,還附文字圖示說明,有興趣者可以下載個driver回來看看readme,以下是其中一段說明
-------------------------------
Source Files -->
Build Script --> IMG
Binary Files --> (Requires inputs including
OS, transport, and platform) --> RPM
Kernel Source -->
