You can use the 'all' keyword to ignore all devices.
The '!' operator will cause the I/O-layer to _not_ ignore a device.
The order on the command line is not important.
The command line is parsed from left to right.
For example,
cio_ignore=0.0.0023-0.0.0042,0.0.4711

/proc/cio_ignore; "add <device range>, <device range>, ..." will ignore the
specified devices.
Note: Already known devices cannot be ignored.
Note: While already known devices can be added to the list of devices to be
ignored, there will be no effect on then. However, if such a device
disappears and then reappeares, it will then be ignored.
For example, if device 0.0.abcd is already known and all other devices
0.0.a000-0.0.afff are not known,
For example,
"echo add 0.0.a000-0.0.accc, 0.0.af00-0.0.afff > /proc/cio_ignore"
will add 0.0.a000-0.0.abcc, 0.0.abce-0.0.accc and 0.0.af00-0.0.afff to the
list of ignored devices and skip 0.0.abcd.
will add 0.0.a000-0.0.accc and 0.0.af00-0.0.afff to the list of ignored
devices.
The devices can be specified either by bus id (0.0.abcd) or, for 2.4 backward
compatibilty, by the device number in hexadecimal (0xabcd or abcd).
