This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled PCI: Generate uppercase hex for modalias var in uevent to the linux-3.16.y-queue branch of the 3.16.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.16.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.16.7-ckt8. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.16.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From 1e8f7ec582811ffa4168cd2f471d5526356ff7ec Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ricardo Ribalda Delgado <ricardo.ribalda@gmail.com> Date: Tue, 2 Dec 2014 17:35:04 +0100 Subject: PCI: Generate uppercase hex for modalias var in uevent commit 145b3fe579db66fbe999a2bc3fd5b63dffe9636d upstream. Some implementations of modprobe fail to load the driver for a PCI device automatically because the "interface" part of the modalias from the kernel is lowercase, and the modalias from file2alias is uppercase. The "interface" is the low-order byte of the Class Code, defined in PCI r3.0, Appendix D. Most interface types defined in the spec do not use alpha characters, so they won't be affected. For example, 00h, 01h, 10h, 20h, etc. are unaffected. Print the "interface" byte of the Class Code in uppercase hex, as we already do for the Vendor ID, Device ID, Class, etc. Commit 89ec3dcf17fd ("PCI: Generate uppercase hex for modalias interface class") fixed only half of the problem. Some udev implementations rely on the uevent file and not the modalias file.
