My point exactly. Thanks for helping me clarify this bug even more.
Since no one i paying attention, I was prepared to make a patch myself,
thou my idea was to modifying the way "nv.ids" is generated in
"01_gen_pci_ids.diff".
A the moment the script looks like this:
awk '/{ 0x.*/ || /case 0x.*/ {print $$2}' ${srcdir}/nv_driver.c | sed -e
s/0x// -e s/,// -e s/:// -e s/^0/10DE0/ | sort -u > nv.ids
This line doesn't even work and "nv.ids" must be cleaned afterwards.
"/case 0x.*/" is useless too. My idea was to change it to something like
this:
awk '/{ 0x.*/ {print $$2}' nv_driver.c | sed -e 's/ { //' -e 's/0x//' -e
's/,.*//' -e 's/:.*//' > nv_tm
p.ids; for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F; do echo "10DE00F$i"; done >>
nv_tmp.ids; for i in 0 1 2 3 4; do echo "10DE02E$i"; done >> nv_tmp.ids; sort
-u nv_tmp.ids > nv.ids
There is probably more elegant way but I'm not realy good at bash :).
In, the end it seems that it doesn't even matter any more since *.ids
are going to be dropped.
