: I had the same concerns too, but was not able to come up with anything
: better. BTW, I think those devices were the first that ended with a
: digit.
No. They weren't. There are sound devices that end in digits:
# snd_ad1816: Analog Devices AD1816 ISA PnP/non-PnP.
# snd_als4000: Avance Logic ALS4000 PCI.
# snd_cs4281: Crystal Semiconductor CS4281 PCI.
# snd_ds1: Yamaha DS-1 PCI.
# snd_emu10k1: Creative EMU10K1 PCI and EMU10K2 (Audigy) PCI.
# snd_envy24: VIA Envy24 and compatible, needs snd_spicds.
# snd_fm801: Forte Media FM801 PCI.
# snd_maestro3: ESS Technology Maestro-3/Allegro PCI.
# snd_sb16: Creative SoundBlaster16, to be used in
# snd_sb8: Creative SoundBlaster (pre-16), to be used in
# snd_via8233: VIA VT8233x PCI.
# snd_via82c686: VIA VT82C686A PCI.
but since they all live on an enumerated bus, they all share the name
"pcm".
There are also these:
device tnt4882 Nat Ins PCI GPIB card
(which does have the digit in the name:
static driver_t pci_gpib_driver = {
"tnt4882",
tnt4882_methods,
sizeof(struct tnt_softc)
};
)
and the following which are just config options:
#device ath_ar5210 # AR5210 chips
#device ath_ar5211 # AR5211 chips
#device ath_ar5212 # AR5212 chips
#device ath_rf2413
#device ath_rf2417
#device ath_rf2425
#device ath_rf5111
#device ath_rf5112
#device ath_rf5413
#device ath_ar5416 # AR5416 chips
Interestingly, drm avoids this by:
device drm # DRM core module required by DRM drivers
device i915drm # Intel i830 through i915
device mach64drm # ATI Rage Pro, Rage Mobility P/M, Rage XL
device mgadrm # AGP Matrox G200, G400, G450, G550
device r128drm # ATI Rage 128
I've also been at companies (well one) that have device names that end
in digits.
