Are you sure about these changes? Also, do the names in this document match the names registered with sysfs (new mga_* stuff etc)? I found a few sysfs entries that differ from devices.txt: # misc devices # 183 = /dev/hwrng Generic random number generator KERNEL="hw_random", NAME="hwrng", SYMLINK="%k" # 219 = /dev/modems/mwave MWave modem firmware upload KERNEL="mwave", NAME="modems/%k" # 169 = /dev/specialix_rioctl Specialix RIO serial control KERNEL="rioctl", NAME="specialix_rioctl", SYMLINK="%k" # 167 = /dev/specialix_sxctl Specialix serial control KERNEL="sxctl", NAME="specialix_sxctl", SYMLINK="%k" ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

As I recall, LANANA is in charge of the major numbers, but for the USB major, the USB developers have been assigning the USB minors. This patch just made the file different from what is currently present in the kernel. Should I just submit a patch to LANANA to update the USB minors for their copy so this doesn't happen again? I'll also fix this up in mainline in the next round of USB patches... thanks, greg k-h ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

In general the policy has been: submit to LANANA any changes to devices.txt, which they maintain. So, they are the maintainer of major numbers, but also the maintainer of devices.txt.

Since the devices file at lanana.org is the one being merged into the one in the kernel tree, please send future updates to lanana and it'll go in that way.
