Would that be the SMA Well, every string is. And past RFCs of this patchset demonstrated guys did serialize a lot of stuff in strings. >connector label (i.e. front panel label)?

Some of the pins face the user over physical port, they it is a front panel label. Others are internal names. I have no clue how to define and mainly enforce rules here. But as an example, if you have 2 pins of the same type, only difference is they are connected to front panel connector "A" and "B", this is the label you have to pass to the ID query. Do you see any other way? > >> <- DPLL_A_PIN_ID >> >> Again, if user passes a subset which would not provide a single match, >> we error out with -EINVAL and proper exack message. >> >> If there is only one pin for example, user query of DPLL_A_MODULE_NAME >> and DPLL_A_CLOCK_ID would do return a single match.
