FYI: I just got this back from systemd-devel-owner@lists.freedesktop.org : Please subscribe to this mailing list, all non-subscriber emails are automatically rejected by the server. If you actually don't want to receive the mails, stay subscribed but just disable the delivery in the mailman web interface. You will still be able to send messages that way. We were unable to cope with the amount of SPAM, and the moderation queue was not actually moderated by anybody, so rejection seemed more appropriate than no answer and no delivery to the list. Thanks for understanding. Please do not crosspost between netdev and closed mailing lists. It splits the followup threads between those who are inside the closed community and those who are not. I've removed systemd-devel from the CC list of this email. Thanks for understanding. Bjørn
Not sure how, but my patch got through, and I don't recall being subscribed, so I thought it was a an open list. Anyway, it's something that I considered important to be considered by the two communities. Kay raises up the matter of still using dev_id. Since we had drivers that used that in the past, should we use it as a fallback for older kernels where dev_port is not there? Regards. Cascardo.
