Code:
$ printf '%s\n' '' 0 000 0000 0.0000 +0 | sort -n

0
+0
000
0000
0.0000
$ printf '%s\n' '' 0 000 0000 0.0000 +0 | sort -nu

DAHDI_REGISTRATION(8)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				     DAHDI_REGISTRATION(8)

NAME
dahdi_registration - Handle registration of Xorcom XPD modules in dahdi. SYNOPSIS
dahdi_registration [-s sortorder] [on|off] DESCRIPTION
Without parameters, show all connected XPDs sorted by physical connector order. Each one is show to be unregistered (off), or registered to a specific dahdi span (the span number is shown). All registerations/deregisterations are sorted by physical connector string. Span registration should generally always succeed. Span unregistration may fail if channels from the span are in use by e.g. asterisk. In such a case you'll also see those channels as '(In use)' in the output of lsdahdi(8). Parameters off -- deregisters all XPD's from dahdi. on -- registers all XPD's to dahdi. Options -s sort_order The sort order to use. If the option is not used, the sort order is taken from the environment variable XBUS_SORT and failing that: the hard-coded default of SORT_XPPORDER. The available sorting orders are documented in Dahdi::Xpp manual. Sample Output An example of the output of dahdi_registration for some registered Astribanks: $ dahdi_registration -s type XBUS-01 usb:0000153 usb-0000:00:10.4-2 XBUS-01/XPD-00: on Span 1 XBUS-01/XPD-01: on Span 2 XBUS-00 usb:0000157 usb-0000:00:10.4-4 XBUS-00/XPD-00: on Span 3 XBUS-00/XPD-01: on Span 4 XBUS-00/XPD-02: on Span 5 XBUS-00/XPD-03: on Span 6 XBUS-00/XPD-04: on Span 7 XBUS-00/XPD-05: on Span 8 XBUS-00/XPD-06: on Span 9 XBUS-00/XPD-07: on Span 10 XBUS-02 usb-0000:00:10.4-1 XBUS-02/XPD-00: on Span 11 XBUS-02/XPD-10: on Span 12 # Sorted: type FILES
/proc/xpp/XBUS-nn/XPD-mm/dahdi_registration Reading from this file shows if if the if the specific XPD is registered. Writing to it 0 or 1 registers / unregisters the device. This should allow you to register / unregister a specific XPD rather than all of them. perl v5.14.2 2011-07-11 DAHDI_REGISTRATION(8)
