I had the same thought, but it does work. Apparently, the device node we're
interested in for ccw-attached FCP devices has both driver and subsystem
attributes that exist and both with a non-empty value. So we're good, even if
the preceding "early continue" skipped an uninteresting parent. However,
proving generality is beyond my capabilities, as I'm not even sure libudev
works on the udev database or sysfs directly. For instance,
# udevadm info -a /sys/class/scsi_host/host2
shows SUBSYSTEM and DRIVER property for each part of the ancestor chain, though
sometimes with empty string values which would not be a problem, whereas
# dir=$(readlink -e /sys/class/scsi_host/host2/); while [ -n "$dir" ]; do echo
$dir; ls -laF $dir/driver $dir/subsystem; dir=${dir%/*}; done
shows some ancestors completely lacking "driver" and some also lacking "subsystem".

I don't think there is anything specific to architecture or bus type.
In fact, I was surprised to see this code here to match for driver "pcieport"
[also "pci**e**port" sounds like PCI-Express, so what about HBAs attached to
the old parallel PCI instead of PCIe?], because udev-builtin-path_id.c looks
very consistent and similar between pci and ccw to me:
static int builtin_path_id(sd_device *dev, sd_netlink **rtnl, int argc, char
*argv[], bool test) {
/* walk up the chain of devices and compose path */
parent = dev;
while (parent) {
const char *subsys, *sysname;
if (sd_device_get_subsystem(parent, &subsys) < 0 ||
sd_device_get_sysname(parent, &sysname) < 0) {
;
} else if (streq(subsys, "pci")) {
path_prepend(&path, "pci-%s", sysname);
if (compat_path)
path_prepend(&compat_path, "pci-%s", sysname);
parent = skip_subsystem(parent, "pci");
supported_parent = true;
} else if (streq(subsys, "ccw")) {
path_prepend(&path, "ccw-%s", sysname);
if (compat_path)
path_prepend(&compat_path, "ccw-%s", sysname);
parent = skip_subsystem(parent, "ccw");
supported_transport = true;
supported_parent = true;
However, the details inside sd_device_get_subsystem() and
sd_device_get_sysname() are beyond my powers to understand, so there might be
differences hidden in there.
That said, I don't want to touch the PCI part here. I don't even have something
to test that.

Working on the other review comments. Stay tuned for v3.
