Looks like pci doesn't export that directly, so you can do: .driver { .dev_groups = my_device_groups; }, in your pci_driver structure. Or I'm sure the PCI driver maintainer would take a patch like 7d9c1d2f7aca ("USB: add support for dev_groups to struct usb_device_driver") was done for the USB subsystem, as diving into the "raw" .driver pointer isn't really that clean or nice in my opinion. thanks, greg k-h _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
