I was not able to find publicly available "PCI Firmware Specification Revision 3.x" doc (only my company's internal one for 3.0), but the related part is matching one found in "PCI Local Bus Specification v2.2", at http://www.ics.uci.edu/~harris/ics216/pci/PCI_22.pdf ,page 207, "6.3.1.1. PCI Expansion ROM Header Format", "6.3.1.2. PCI Data Structure Format": Offset Length Value Description 0h 1 55h ROM Signature, byte 1 1h 1 AAh ROM Signature, byte 2 Offset Length Description 0 4 Signature, the string "PCIR" > Does this fix a bug?

The code indeed checks all signature bytes, it does not just print a warning in some cases. And my suggested code indeed does not change the return value, it only emits a warning in cases where it previously didn't. I believe, this change deserves a patch, and I will alter a changelog wording. > While you're at it, maybe you could include the unexpected values in the > error messages. Yes, I will reply with a patch-v2-which-prints-the-values to this message shortly.

Can you include a reference to the spec, please? Does this fix a bug? If so, please include a reference to that as well. >From reading the patch, I don't think it would change the return value; it looks like the only change is that we'll emit a warning in some cases where we previously didn't. That does seem worthwhile, but it doesn't quite match your changelog, which implies that we'll check more bytes. While you're at it, maybe you could include the unexpected values in the error messages.
