(now with patch)
Hi all,
we are still using module-init-tools for module handling. And so does
SuSE SLES11.
However, after upgrading from kernel v3.8.y to v3.12.y we noticed
that modules.pcimap was empty, which is due to the fact that the
DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE() has been modified to encode the name of
the device table. Which in turn has been done to avoid issues with
multiple tables in a driver (see [1]).
I understand why this patch went it, and fixing this issue in the PNP
driver is worth fixing, I agree.
However, there is quite some userbase of module-init-tools out there,
eventually upgrading as well. And as a consequence I think it makes
sense to patch module-init-tools as well to support both format.
I know that module-init-tools are deprecated by libkmod, and therefore
they seem to be unmaintained since 2011 (at least when looking at
git.kernel.org).
Still, does the attached patch makes sense to apply to git GIT repo?
It modifies elfops to support old and new format of the table name.
I think most people will check kernel.org GIT for a patch, so I think
it makes sense to apply this patch.
Thanks.

depmod: check both old and new __mod_pci_device_tab_section
New format has name of table included, e. g. for e100 driver:
__mod_pci__e100_id_table_device_table
