Right, and what can be done about it? The driver does not control what tty is being used for the serial port (and so can't control the prefix of the 'phys'), we do not extend 'phys' (because it is used very rarely). The only option is to truncate (which we already do). So the warnings are not actionable. Thanks. -- Dmitry
