I did not consider testing this case since it's not possible on a normal chromeos system (the entire root file system is signed for normal users and get's rebooted after an update). I could test this in developer mode of course. Did you expect both driver probe routines to claim the device and wreak havoc with the device? > The patch seems to enable r8152 but does not disable cdc_ether. Correct. r8152 happens to claim the device before cdc_ether does - I thought because cdc_ether is a class driver and only gets picked up after vendor specific drivers are probed. Is that correct? I didn't realize cdc_ether has a blacklist to make sure RTL8152|RTL8153 devices are not picked up by cdc_ether. Would you prefer I add this device to the blacklist in the same patch? cheers, grant > > Regards > Oliver > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
