Thanks, the HBA and BOSS ones are part of the update https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hwdata/0.357-1 now but the ROR one doesn't seem to be upstream https://github.com/vcrhonek/hwdata/blob/master/pci.ids ? could you submit a merge proposal on github, that doesn't seem something we should carry as a distribution specific delta

Looks like pci.ids are pulled-in once in a month. We will wait for the next update to it in Apr.

added the ROR-N100 to upstream hwdata.

Request you to pull this as well into Jammy.

Hi Michael,
These ids are not included in Jammy having hwdata/jammy,now 0.357-1 all [installed].
Request you to help get these included in the SRUs.

Those changes are in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hwdata/0.359-1 now.

Could you describe why you would like the changes backported to older series and provide a testcase? Which software are relying on those information and to for what purpose?

These are new storage controllers launched/to-be-launched by Dell.
Unless hwdata carries these ids, lspci will show them as a generic storage controller, not the exact model name.
This impact is on lspci and any other tools which rely on model names displayed in lspci.
Hence the request to include in Jammy and Focal which are both supported on the platforms having these new storage controllers.

Thanks, so it's only cosmetic in the lspci report or is there a real impact for you or others? Since we got no user report and how-things-are-described-in-lspci isn't really important it doesn't sound like a high priority for a stable serie update

It is currently only cosmetic, lspci only impact.

I'm going to Mark it wontfix, it seems not something important enough to justify a stable update. If you want to work on it and update the bug to be SRU compliant and do the verification I'm fine sponsoring the update for you though
