AFAICS if you force everything to unknown you are effectively forcing it to send the uevent anyway (unless the probe actually returns "unknown" for everything). Seems a bit pointless to do the probe at all when you really know that you're going to send the event anyway. > > While I'd be fine with just firing off a probe, I don't think it makes sense to > avoid having an unknown state here when numerous drivers already use unknown > states regularly, unless there was a reason other then the one mentioned in the > bugzilla for doing this. > > > That is, iirc, something that Lyude suggested when we discussed in > > person (but I asked him to send revert patch just to start broader > *her please :) > > > discussion on what the right solution would be).??Depending on > > userspace to reprobe seems like at least the wrong thing for fbcon.. > > which as much as I wish it would go away, as long as it is enabled in > > kernel config, I don't think we can ignore. > > > > BR, > > -R > > > > > Not 100% if that would be safe.
