I think if we want a clue about whether a service driver is attached to a device, we should add something to the service driver, where we can print more useful information. In general I want to move towards thinking about the service drivers as optional parts of the PCI core instead of separate "drivers." > E.g. when I plug in the Apple Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter I get this > because a new hotplug port appears below the hotplug port of the host > controller: > [ 141.926865] pciehp 0000:0a:00.0:pcie204: service driver pciehp loaded For example, for pciehp, you should already see something like this: pciehp 0000:80:02.0:pcie04: Slot #6 AttnBtn+ PwrCtrl+ MRL- AttnInd+ PwrInd+ HotPlug+ Surprise- Interlock- NoCompl- LLActRep+ Is that enough?
