Subject: 2.6.18-rc3 does not like an old udev (071)
Date: Sun, 30 Jul 2006 19:29:58 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <44CCEC96.3020607@yahoo.fr> (raw)
Hi,
When updating only the kernel to 2.6.18-rc3 on Ubuntu Dapper/x86,
/dev/usblp0
is no more created on boot. If I manually create it, it works fine.
Vanilla udev from Dapper: version 079 (Documentation/Changes requires
udev 071 ;-) ).
git-bisect told me the culprit was
http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=bd00949647ddcea47ce4ea8bb2cfcfc98ebf9f2a
Reverting only this commit makes an Oopsing kernel.
This patch was next to last in its serie:
http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-usb-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg44538.html
Reverting the last patch in the serie (as well as the culprit found by
git bisect):
http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=43104f1da88f5335e9a45695df92a735ad550dda
fixes the problem.
Updating udev to 096, and using a normal 2.6.18-rc3 kernel works too, so
maybe
the correct (albeit unpopular) fix is to update the udev requirement in
Documentation/Changes?
Thanks.
