Package: isenkram Version: 0.63 Severity: normal Tags: patch Dear Petter,
1) Some modalias files lack a trailing newline. E.g.: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:16.0/0000:00:16.0-082ee5a7-7c25-470a-9643-0c06f0466ea1/modalias /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:16.0/0000:00:16.0-309dcde8-ccb1-4062-8f78-600115a34327/modalias /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:16.0/0000:00:16.0-3c4852d6-d47b-4f46-b05e-b5edc1aa440e/modalias /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:16.0/0000:00:16.0-42b3ce2f-bd9f-485a-96ae-26406230b1ff/modalias /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:16.0/0000:00:16.0-55213584-9a29-4916-badf-0fb7ed682aeb/modalias /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:16.0/0000:00:16.0-5565a099-7fe2-45c1-a22b-d7e9dfea9a2e/modalias /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:16.0/0000:00:16.0-6861ec7b-d07a-4673-856c-7f22b4d55769/modalias /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:16.0/0000:00:16.0-8c2f4425-77d6-4755-aca3-891fdbc66a58/modalias /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:16.0/0000:00:16.0-8e6a6715-9abc-4043-88ef-9e39c6f63e0f/modalias /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:16.0/0000:00:16.0-b638ab7e-94e2-4ea2-a552-d1c54b627f04/modalias /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:16.0/0000:00:16.0-dba4d603-d7ed-4931-8823-17ad585705d5/modalias /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:16.0/0000:00:16.0-dd17041c-09ea-4b17-a271-5b989867ec65/modalias /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:16.0/0000:00:16.0-fbf6fcf1-96cf-4e2e-a6a6-1bab8cbe36b1/modalias These are all related to the Intel Management Engine Interface (mei). They break how isenkram documents locating all modalias strings. 2) Some /sys/devices directories include spaces in their names. E.g.: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.3/skl_hda_dsp_generic/Analog Playback and Capture /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.3/skl_hda_dsp_generic/Digital Playback and Capture /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.3/skl_hda_dsp_generic/HDA Analog /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.3/skl_hda_dsp_generic/HDA Analog Deep Buffer This could potentially break things in the future. 3) All modalias files appear to be under /sys/devices Below is a patch which addresses all of these.
