Sky2 is parsing the VPD and adds the parsed information to its debugfs file. This isn't needed in kernel, userspace tools like lspci can be used to display such information nicely. Therefore remove this from the driver. lspci -vv: Capabilities: [50] Vital Product Data Product Name: Marvell Yukon 88E8070 Gigabit Ethernet Controller Read-only fields: [PN] Part number: Yukon 88E8070 [EC] Engineering changes: Rev. 1.0 [MN] Manufacture ID: Marvell [SN] Serial number: AbCdEfG970FD4 [CP] Extended capability: 01 10 cc 03 [RV] Reserved: checksum good, 9 byte(s) reserved Read/write fields: [RW] Read-write area: 1 byte(s) free End Relevant part in debugfs file: 0000:01:00.0 Product Data Marvell Yukon 88E8070 Gigabit Ethernet Controller Part Number: Yukon 88E8070 Engineering Level: Rev. 1.0 Manufacturer: Marvell Serial Number: AbCdEfG970FD4 Signed-off-by: Heiner Kallweit <hkallweit1@gmail.com> Acked-by: Stephen Hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/bbaee8ab-9b2e-de04-ee7b-571e094cc5fe@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
