Re: Some doubts about hotplug

[Piter Punk <piterpk@terra.com.br>]

Hi,

     First all, sorry for my bad english, i hope you can understand
this mail. I really like hotplug, but i am got problems with boot time.

     I am telling that things to you, because you are the "name" in
many hotplug talks. Measuring the time i got some weird results:

     poseidon - 0m12.587s
     janus    - 0m33.949s
     rachael  - 0m19.529s

     It's only the time probing PCI devices. USB and PnP devices
are very faster. I really don't know why it looses so many seconds.
My "alternative" approach is to swaps /etc/hotplug/pci.rc with:

     for i in `pcimodules`; do
         grep -q "^$i" /etc/hotplug/blacklist || modprobe $i
     done

     And only this. Is a lot faster. But i don't know if it causes
new problems. I don't want fix "time" and lost funcionality.

     Do you had any tip?

     Thanks for all
