Whoops - Replying to the list this time. Hi Grant, > Problem: There are no guarantees that the MDIO bus controller will be > probed before the Ethernet device. I believe that what you're supposed to do is to have "bus" controllers initilize themselves using subsys_initcall rather than module_init. If you look in include/linux/init.h you can see the various initcall definitions. module_init is at the same level as device_initcall. All of the initcalls at one "level" are completed before moving onto the next level. Of course, if you're using loadable modules, then the dependencies should take care of things for you. -- Dave Hylands Shuswap, BC, Canada http://www.DaveHylands.com/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-embedded" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
