Yes. > This is found to be because store_new_id() checks for pdrv->id_table which is no more NULL, so the below check fails I do not think that is the reason. The reason is because sysfs_bind_only is set, and this is not a direct sysfs bind. > if (ids) { > ^^ > This is no more NULL, so enter inside the loop > > retval = -EINVAL; > while (ids->vendor || ids->subvendor || ids->class_mask) { > if (driver_data == ids->driver_data) { > retval = 0; > break; > } > ids++; > } > if (retval) /* No match */ > return retval; > ^^^^^ > This is where it returns as -EINVAL Why wouldn't it have broken out of the loop earlier, since driver_data and ids->driver_data should both be zero? I assume this is with a patch to do PCI_ANY_ID in vfio-pci. -Scott -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
