Subject: [PATCH 01/75] platform: prefix MODALIAS with "platform:"
Date: Fri, 12 Oct 2007 15:16:05 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <11922274393667-git-send-email-gregkh@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: \<20071012221251.GB4559@kroah.com\>
From: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org>
Prefix platform modalias strings with "platform:", which
modprobe config to blacklist alias resolving if userspace
configures it.
Send uevents for all platform devices.
Add MODULE_ALIAS's to: pxa2xx_pcmcia, ds1742 and pcspkr to trigger
module autoloading by userspace.
$ modinfo pcspkr
alias: platform:pcspkr
license: GPL
description: PC Speaker beeper driver
...
$ modprobe -n -v platform:pcspkr
