lshw does not show product or vendor information
« on: June 30, 2020, 10:48:10 AM »
Hi, Rich. I just wanted to point out that the latest  lshw  in the TCL11 x86_64 and TCL10 x86 repos is not showing the "product" and "vendor" lines as expected.

These are the expected output lines:
  description: foo
  product: bar
  vendor: baz
  physical id: bang

These are the acual output lines:
  description: foo
  physical id: bang

For example, this is the actual output when using  lshw  on TCL11 64:
Code: [Select]
$ sudo /usr/local/sbin/lshw -c network
  *-network                 
       description: Ethernet interface
       physical id: 19
       bus info: pci@0000:00:19.0

But this is the expected output (which is what I see when I use a homebrewed portable version of lshw):

Any idea why the repo version of  lshw  is missing the helpful "product" and "vendor" fields?

Hi GNUser !

I am sorry if this looks too bad but did you install lshw-dev ?

I have noticed that the files required for lshw to list vendor and product lines (they are the identifier files for each vendor and product
/usr/share/lshw/oui.txt
/usr/share/lshw/pci.ids
/usr/share/lshw/usb.ids
) are in -dev. So, I suggest trying it.

There is no  lshw-dev.tcz  in the repo.

Also, I noticed that  lshw.tcz  includes these files:

Code: [Select]
/usr/local/share/lshw/pci.ids.gz             
/usr/local/share/lshw/pnp.ids.gz             
/usr/local/share/lshw/pnpid.txt.gz
/usr/local/share/lshw/usb.ids.gz

You should have oui.txt and all the above said files.

Oh ! I saw x86 repo before  :P . I think you are using x64. Just now saw that they are in -doc in x64. Try it.

Hi GNUser
I did a little poking around and this is what I found.

Checking the CPU produces product and vendor in the output:
Code: [Select]
tc@E310:~$ sudo lshw -c cpu

Checking the network with the  -numeric  option produces product and vendor in the output:

tc@E310:~$

This is from the  pci.ids.gz  file. The  8086:1064  shows up, but without the  8086  prefix. Maybe that's why its not listing those fields.
Code: [Select]

I figured out the problem: The lshw binary in the extension looks for data files in /usr/share/lshw. However, the extension puts those data files in /usr/local/share/lshw:

Code: [Select]

openat(AT_FDCWD, "/usr/share/lshw/pnpid.txt", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

If I create a link, then  lshw  works as expected:
Code: [Select]
$ sudo ln -s /usr/local/share/lshw /usr/share/lshw
$ sudo /usr/local/sbin/lshw -c network
...
  *-network
       description: Wireless interface
       product: AR93xx Wireless Network Adapter
       vendor: Qualcomm Atheros
       physical id: 0
...

Maybe the root issue goes back to when lshw was compiled (missing "--prefix=/usr/local"). The fix would be to recompile  lshw  or to include link from /usr/share/lshw to /usr/local/share/lshw in the extension.

Rich, to prevent duplicating effort: Do you want to fix this issue or should I?

It would be better to find the hard coded address in the code and fix it. Is there an option to use the data in pci-utils?

A simple fix would be to move the four database files up from the /usr/local/share/lshw directory to the /usr/local/share directory.
/usr/local/share (but not /usr/local/share/lshw) is already one of the places where lshw looks for the data files :)

Code: [Select]
$ strings /usr/local/sbin/lshw | grep share
...
/usr/local/share/pci.ids:/usr/share/lshw/pci.ids:/usr/local/share/pci.ids:/usr/share/pci.ids:/etc/pci.ids:/usr/share/hwdata/pci.ids:/usr/share/misc/pci.ids
/usr/local/share/pnp.ids:/usr/share/lshw/pnp.ids:/usr/share/hwdata/pnp.ids
/usr/local/share/pnpid.txt:/usr/share/lshw/pnpid.txt:/usr/share/hwdata/pnpid.txt
/usr/local/share/usb.ids:/usr/share/lshw/usb.ids:/usr/local/share/usb.ids:/usr/share/usb.ids:/etc/usb.ids:/usr/share/hwdata/usb.ids:/usr/share/misc/usb.ids

It would therefore be trivial to fix the existing extensions.
@Rich - I see you were the last one to submit the lshw extension. Would you like to do this, or should I?

Since I'm the one that seems to be the most bothered by this, I went ahead and fixed it for TCL10 (32 and 64 bit) and TCL11 (32 and 64 bit).

I did not recompile, just moved the .gz data archives from /usr/local/share/lshw/ to /usr/local/share/

The four adjusted extensions have been submitted :)

Hi Juanito
... It would be better to find the hard coded address in the code and fix it. ...
I modified the build script to search the  .cc  files and fix them. Updated to newer version:
Code: [Select]
* lshw B.02.19
  detection of NVMe disks
  detection of SD/MMC and SDIO devices
  bug fixes
  code cleanup
  updated data files

Newly compiled extensions submitted.

No problem. I was just having a little fun at your expense and probably should have included a smiley face in my comment ;D.

Thank you for taking the time to pinpoint the issue.
