Wait, no, you will never be typing "MODULE_ALIAS()" in your driver at all, it will be created automatically for you by the proper macro fun with the MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() line. The same variable you use in that macro will be used to register the driver with the vmbus core. No one ever sees module aliases in the "raw" anymore, except for the platform legacy crud. thanks, greg k-h _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
