PCI controller incorrectly categorized as network device

[Steve Magoun]

These devices are categorized as network devices:
http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/catalog/component/pci/8086:1e10/
http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/catalog/component/pci/8086:1e18/

I think they aren't actually network devices, but instead are PCI Express bus controllers

The category information comes from checkbox, it's not something hexr or the certification site generates. I'll pass this along to roadmr and ara as there's a new checkbox release coming up that has parser improvements and we plan to do some reparsing with the improvements.

[Ara Pulido (ara)]

Moving to Checkbox.

Daniel, does the new parser behaves better in this case?

[Daniel Manrique (roadmr)]

Yes, this is fixed by checkbox rev 2310, what's happening is that network devices were "inheriting" the parent device's identifiers. That's why you see them identified as the bus they were connected to.

This should be fixed once we deploy the new parser.

On the checkbox side this bug is Fix Released (and would be a duplicate of bug 1211521), I'll mark as such, and we're already working on deploying the new parser, we can add a hexr task if we need to keep track of this.
