Subject: [PATCH] testing for probe errors in pci-driver.c
Date: Fri, 08 Aug 2003 13:46:16 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3F33EFF8.6070203@us.ibm.com> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 342 bytes --]
Currently if __pci_device_probe locates the correct
device driver, but receives an error from the static
drv->probe function, this error is not reported.
The attached patch reports the above error condition
to the caller. Only when a match for the device in
the static tables is not found, is the dynamic driver
table searched.
