This is either a net driver or a ULP, no idea why it should go in this directory!? It sounds like an ethernet driver, so you should probably put it there... > +/* hfi_vnic_bus_init - initialize the hfi vnic bus drvier */ > +static int hfi_vnic_bus_init(void) > +{ > + int rc; > + > + ida_init(&hfi_vnic_ctrl_ida); > + idr_init(&hfi_vnic_idr); > + > + rc = bus_register(&hfi_vnic_bus); Why on earth do we need this? Didn't I give you enough grief for the psm stuff and now you want to create an entire subystem hidden away!? Use some netlink scheme to control your vnic like the rest of the net stack.. Jason
