FYI, I built and pushed biosdevname 0.3.7 with the recent bugfixes and behavioral fixes. I wanted to get this out for testing in the F15 Alpha cut. To that end, I need 3 people to give +1 karma to the update https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/biosdevname-0.3.7-1.fc15 Thanks, Matt ----- Forwarded message from Matt Domsch <Matt_Domsch@xxxxxxxx> ----- Date: Thu, 17 Feb 2011 10:15:40 -0600 From: Matt Domsch <Matt_Domsch@xxxxxxxx> To: linux-hotplug@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, netdev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, "K, Narendra" <Narendra_K@xxxxxxxx>, "Hargrave, Jordan" <Jordan_Hargrave@xxxxxxxx>, "Rose, Charles" <Charles_Rose@xxxxxxxx>, Colin Watson <cjwatson@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: biosdevname v0.3.7 biosdevname, now version 0.3.7. Major visible changes include no longer using '#' in device names (by popular demand), no longer suggesting new names if running inside a VM guest (tested with KVM, SLES 10 Xen, XenServer, VMware ESX, but it uses the generic cpuid test, so should work on most virt platforms), and a new kernel command line option 'biosdevname={0|1}' which udev honors, to force enabling or disabling of invoking biosdevname. Still to come: NPAR partition->port mapping support (initially Dell-specific, but if NIC vendors have other ways to expose this, please let me know).
