Dear Warner and Hackers,

Is there any way (on -current with NEWCARD) "devd" can
prevent "sio" driver from attaching to *ANY* pc-card
that has PCCARD_FUNCTION_SERIAL?

From what i understand "devd" can load driver modules,
but it only comes to play when card is not recognized,
right?

The particular problem is that 3COM Bluetooth PC-CARD
has PCCARD_FUNCTION_SERIAL, thus "sio" driver claims
it knows the card. Later "sio" driver fails to attach
because it does not recognize UART and game over. Other
drivers and "devd" do not even have a change to look at
the card.

If i hack sio_pccard_match() function and filter out
3COM card (or take out "sio" driver completely) then
everything is working. Do we need 'ignore list' for the
"sio" driver? Is there a better way?

thanks,
max

p.s. BTW, OLDCARD and pccardd work just fine.
