NAME¶
usb_register_driver - register a USB interface driver
SYNOPSIS¶
int usb_register_driver(struct usb_driver * new_driver, struct module * owner, const char * mod_name);
ARGUMENTS¶
new_driver
owner
mod_name
DESCRIPTION¶
Registers a USB interface driver with the USB core. The list of unattached interfaces will be rescanned whenever a new driver is added, allowing the new driver to attach to any recognized interfaces.
RETURN¶
A negative error code on failure and 0 on success.
NOTE¶
if you want your driver to use the USB major number, you must call usb_register_dev to enable that functionality. This function no longer takes care of that.
