Subject: [PATCH] 2.6.12-rc1, ./drivers/base/platform.c
Date: Mon, 21 Mar 2005 21:32:50 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cb57165a050321213210961749@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
The latest prepatch, 2.6.12-rc1, introduced the following change.
--- a/drivers/base/platform.c 2005-03-17 17:35:04 -08:00

pdev->dev.bus = &platform_bus_type;
if (pdev->id != -1)
- snprintf(pdev->dev.bus_id, BUS_ID_SIZE, "%s%u",
pdev->name, pdev->id);
+ snprintf(pdev->dev.bus_id, BUS_ID_SIZE, "%s.%u",
pdev->name, pdev->id);
else
strlcpy(pdev->dev.bus_id, pdev->name, BUS_ID_SIZE);
It causes problem, as most platform files, for example,
arch/ppc/platforms/katana.c, still use the old name without ".". I do
not understand why bus_id "mpsc.0" is better than "mpsc0".
Please explain what is the benefit of introducing such a change,
before I can submit a patch for all those platform files to work with
this change.
Please CC me, as I am currently not in the list.
Thanks,
Lee
