It's just most common for this sort of table to be const but if this driver is reassigning values in the table, then it can't be const. It is possible though that the code might not be suitable for multiple simultaneous instances of the device type. Dunno. I don't use it nor have I inspected the code. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
