I tested fresh updates... All the same :-(

But i noticed a couple of strange things. From the output of the usbd -v:


/kernel: usbd: device-attach event at 0.020285000, USB Embedded Hub, A-DATA Technology Inc.:
/kernel: vndr=0x067b prdct=0x2515 rlse=0x0001 clss=0x0009 subclss=0x0000 prtcl=0x0000
/kernel: device names: uhub1
/kernel: usbd: Found action 'USB device' for USB Embedded Hub, A-DATA Technology Inc. at uhub1

/kernel: usbd: device-attach event at 0.023338000, USB Mass Storage Device, A-DATA Technology Inc.:
/kernel: vndr=0x067b prdct=0x2517 rlse=0x0001 clss=0x0000 subclss=0x0000 prtcl=0x0000
/kernel: device names: umass0
/kernel: usbd: Found action 'USB device' for USB Mass Storage Device, A-DATA Technology Inc. at umass0

Here we have:

vendor 0x067b - according to usbdevs.h this is Prolific Technology... hmmm

product 0x2515 (not in usbdevs.h) class 0x0009 (hub) - well, it is identified
as hub (UICLASS_HUB in usb.h)

product 0x2517 (not in usbdevs.h) class 0x0000 - my understanding is that
this should be 0x0008 (UICLASS_MASS in usb.h)

So: usbd reports vndr=0x067b but prints A-DATA; probably this is harmless...
    usbd reports clss=0x0000 for mass-storage part - i think this is bad?
    products identifiers are not in usbdevs, usbdevs.h - ?

How should i act in this situation?

Oh, and when using "options DA_OLD_QUIRKS", am i right i still
need to manually add quirk to scsi_da_c?

TIA,
Igor
