I agree with you, but you and David can fight it out. While finding out where to ask/complain about
udev, I had a private communication with GregKH. He thinks that a patch to fix this has already been
pushed through Linus. As Linville's wireless-dev tree is a little behind, I'm waiting to see if it
gets fixed here by 2.6.23-rc3. If not, I'll talk to the udev/hotplug folks.
Hmm, I can not immediately see how udev could request the renaming to
the same name:
/* look if we want to change the name of the netif */
if (strcmp(udev->name, udev->dev->kernel) != 0) {
...
retval = rename_netif(udev);
...
}
What udev version is it and which distro and version?
My distro is openSUSE 10.2, which is fully patched/updated. According to YaST, I'm using version
103-12 x86_64. My kernel is 2.6.23-rc2 from John Linville's git tree - I run bcm43xx-mac80211.
