I mean "load via the normal device model". For example the AC97 drivers need to be loadable by the codec id. There's no entry in scripts/mod/file2alias.c for dynamically loading the modules. They don't have an id_table. My AC97 driver is detecting the codec id and printing it before trying to access the codec driver. I can convert that to a load_module() call when the drivers are ready. The core needs to detect if a specific codec id can't be supported to fall back to the generic AC97 driver. -- Jon Smirl jonsm...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
