This is a kind of aliasing to another device; +when this form is given, the driver will refer to that SSID as a +reference to the quirk table. It'd be useful especially when the +target quirk isn't listed in the model table. For example, passing +model=103c:8862 will apply the quirk for HP ProBook 445 G8 (which +isn't found in the model table as of writing) as long as the device is +handled equivalently by the same driver. + Speaker and Headphone Output ---------------------------- |
