Subject: Aliases are broken with ieee1394 modules
Date: Mon, 31 May 2004 08:04:24 +0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <40BA92A8.8040405@ums.usu.ru> (raw)

This problem can be reproduced on a 2.6.6 kernel if you compile e.g. 
video1394 as a module.

The source line in drivers/ieee1394/video1394.c that is a problem:

MODULE_ALIAS_CHARDEV(IEEE1394_MAJOR, IEEE1394_MINOR_BLOCK_VIDEO1394 * 16);

The bad result is that in /lib/modules/2.6.6/modules.alias the following 
line appears:

alias char-major-171-1 * 16 video1394

I use gcc 3.3.2, if that matters. Similar problem exists with other 
ieee1394 modules.
