With this patch we'll start emitting uevents for devices we previously didn't. I guess that's OK because nothing is expecting them? Can you include a log of udev showing the event firing and that nothing breaks. On my system here I see nothing matches the devices except for libvpd, which seems to match lots of things. > diff --git a/arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/vio.c b/arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/vio.c > index 90ff85c879bf..62961715ca24 100644 > --- a/arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/vio.c > +++ b/arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/vio.c > @@ -1593,12 +1593,13 @@ static int vio_hotplug(const struct device *dev, struct kobj_uevent_env *env) > > dn = dev->of_node; > if (!dn) > - return -ENODEV; > + goto out; > cp = of_get_property(dn, "compatible", NULL); > if (!cp) > - return -ENODEV; > - > - add_uevent_var(env, "MODALIAS=vio:T%sS%s", vio_dev->type, cp); > + add_uevent_var(env, "MODALIAS=vio:T%s", vio_dev->type); If it's OK to skip the compatible property then we don't need the of_node at all, and we could always emit this, even when of_node is not available. > + else > + add_uevent_var(env, "MODALIAS=vio:T%sS%s", vio_dev->type, cp); > +out: > return 0; > } I think we also should update the vio modalias_show() to follow the same logic, otherwise the uevent MODALIAS value and the modalias file won't match which is confusing. Preferably vio_hotplug() and modalias_show() would just call a common helper. cheers ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread
