Subject: [Buildroot] [PATCH] package/busybox: support automatic module loading with mdev
Date: Wed, 9 Mar 2016 00:16:12 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160308231612.GF14289@free.fr> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1457478205-18515-1-git-send-email-peter@korsgaard.com>

Peter, All,

On 2016-03-09 00:03 +0100, Peter Korsgaard spake thusly:
> A recently discussed on the mailing list:
> http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2016-February/154189.html
> 
> Our mdev configuration currently doesn't handle module loading. Fix that by:
> 
> - Telling mdev to run modprobe on hotplug events providing MODALIAS
> 
> - Adjust the init script to handle coldplug modalias events (E.G. modules
>   for which the devices were already present before mdev was added as the
>   hotplug handler). mdev -s should arguable handle this, but it doesn't.
> 
> Cc: Arnout Vandecappelle <arnout@mind.be>

Acked-by: "Yann E. MORIN" <yann.morin.1998@free.fr>

Yann E. MORIN.
