Subject: [RFClue] pci_get_device, new driver model
Date: Fri, 07 Oct 2005 08:56:10 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <43469A9A.2070104@beezmo.com> (raw)

I'm missing something fundamental, and beg your indulgence.

My current 2.6 drivers support multiple indentical PCI boards.
The init code spins on pci_find_device and assigns instance/minor
numbers as boards are found.  Load script insmods the driver,
gets the major # from /proc/devices, and creates the /dev/ entries.




Not subscribed but lurking,
Bill
