Subject: modules.pcimap and 8139's
Date: Fri, 14 Dec 2001 17:26:41 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3C1A7CA1.D6C119DC@mandrakesoft.com> (raw)
Various tools need to pick "8139cp.c" instead of "8139too.c" based on
PCI revision, which is not in modules.pcimap nor struct pci-device-id.
grep for 'pci_rev' in both those files to see the PCI revision checks
hand-coded currently in the drivers.
What is the preferred -2.4- solution?
a) append pci rev and mask to the end of each modules.pcimap line, and
update struct pci_device_id?
b) create new file modules.pci_rev?
c) other?
Distros at least need to solve this for 2.4...
