Message-ID: <4451BF8B.5030707@nachtwindheim.de> (raw)

Hi there!

I've seen a change in the Documentation/pci.txt

http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h›860b8c4bde5949b272968597d1426d53080532

Does that really mean, that no Device-ID's should be added or should they be removed from include/linux/pci_ids.h?
They could be replaced in the drivers, if they are used e.g. max 2 times, with the constant values or if they are used
more than 2 times (for drivers who support more devices and check that) moved only to them.

I would write patches if this is in the sense of that.

Greets,
Henne
