Subject: Re: [PATCH] acpica events: Call acpi_os_hotplug_execute on Ejection Requests
Date: Fri, 23 Sep 2011 02:13:11 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110923011311.GA18632@srcf.ucam.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <CAErSpo70F012EEh3TEdgK=rSst-27P-j8JxMDkcUaJGd29BnDg@mail.gmail.com>

We're seeing an increasing number of machines that use acpi 
notifications to trigger rescans of devices - for instance, SD readers 
that only appear on the PCI bus once a card has been inserted. These 
often fail to flag themselves as removable or ejectable, so the acpiphp 
core never binds. I think we need to fix this pretty urgently, for PCI 
if nothing else.
