Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

hotplugging of ExpressCards like my Silicon Image based Delock eSATA
controller does not work. The card is only detected when I insert
it before booting.

It is:

merkaba:~> lspci -nn | grep Sili
05:00.0 Mass storage controller [0180]: Silicon Image, Inc. SiI 3531 
[SATALink/SATARaid] Serial ATA Controller [1095:3531] (rev 01)

I suspect the Express Card slot is just connected to one of these
PCI express ports:

merkaba:~> lspci -nn | grep -i express
00:1c.0 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset 
Family PCI Express Root Port 1 [8086:1c10] (rev b4)
00:1c.1 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset 
Family PCI Express Root Port 2 [8086:1c12] (rev b4)
00:1c.3 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset 
Family PCI Express Root Port 4 [8086:1c16] (rev b4)
00:1c.4 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset 
Family PCI Express Root Port 5 [8086:1c18] (rev b4)
00:1f.0 ISA bridge [0601]: Intel Corporation QM67 Express Chipset Family LPC 
Controller [8086:1c4f] (rev 04)


When I put something like

# [Bug 35812] New: hotplug of Express Card eSATA controller in ThinkPad T520
# does not work
# https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35812
acpiphp

in /etc/modules and rebuild initramfs hotplugging of ExpressCard´s works
as expected.

Expected results: udev loads acpiphp on the ThinkPad T520 and other
laptops with ExpressCard support. According to an article in c`t
Linux kompakt 1/2012 also quite some other business laptops are
affected by this.

I reported it upstream on kernel.org back then, but maybe it is more
of a userspace, of a udev issue, cause when the module is loaded
hot plugging of Express Cards does work as expected.

Thanks,
Martin
