The series of changes[1] has been merged to Linux v6.8-rc1[2], which alters the parser of the content of configuration ROM. As a result, some device attributes for model information in the legacy layout of configuration ROM are finally available for node and unit devices. The change enables to distinguish the devices by model information, and what is required in systemd PR 30205[3]. It can improve the hwdb for IEEE 1394 functions in the point addressed at issue 25029[4]. This commit fulfills some entries for the hwdb, which corresponds to some devices with the legacy layout of configuration ROM. They provides both vendor and model names to udev applications.

Files in this directory specify a description of hardware devices, in the form of mappings from modalias-like keys (which identify specific hardware devices) to udev properties. Files in this directory are not read by udev directly. Instead, man:systemd-hwdb(8) compiles them into a binary database. See man:hwdb(7) for an overview of the configuration file format, and man:systemd-udevd.service(8) for a description of the udev daemon. Use 'systemd-analyze cat-config udev/hwdb.d' to display the effective config.
