[PATCH] Revert "Bluetooth: Use devname:vhci module alias for virtual HCI driver"

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Adding the devname:vhci alias and thus adding a static /dev/vhci device node
only works when assigning a fixed major/minor number. However, the code
currently uses a dynamically assigned minor number. It is therefore impossible
to create a static device and to autoload the module when accessing it.

Reverting this fixes the kmod error message
 depmod: ERROR: Module 'hci_vhci' has devname (vhci) but lacks major and minor information. Ignoring.

This reverts commit bfacbb9aec029b3200053d84c8cd5d7575f2d4a5.
