I'm not much into embedded architectures, and I suspect it depends on the architecture. Looking at the latest kernel tree I see this function is called only in machine or platform initialization files, for example: arch/arm/mach-pxa/cm-x300.c: i2c_register_board_info(0, cm_x300_gpio_ext_info, arch/arm/mach-rpc/riscpc.c: i2c_register_board_info(0, &i2c_rtc, 1); arch/arm/mach-s3c6410/mach-smdk6410.c: i2c_register_board_info(0, i2c_devs0, ARRAY_SIZE(i2c_devs0)); arch/arm/mach-s3c6410/mach-smdk6410.c: i2c_register_board_info(1, i2c_devs1, ARRAY_SIZE(i2c_devs1)); arch/arm/plat-omap/i2c.c: err = i2c_register_board_info(bus_id, info, len); arch/arm/mach-s3c2440/mach-osiris.c: i2c_register_board_info(0, osiris_i2c_devs, arch/arm/mach-s3c2440/mach-anubis.c: i2c_register_board_info(0, anubis_i2c_devs, arch/arm/mach-ep93xx/core.c: i2c_register_board_info(0, devices, num); I can't tell more without knowing which architecture and machine or platform you're working on. And maybe the question would be better asked to someone who is familiar with the architecture in question. > Another thing, what would be the equivalent of > MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(i2c, example_idtable); > As you said, the i2c_device_id structure doesn't exist in this kernel... There is no equivalent, just omit this part. -- Jean Delvare http://khali.linux-fr.org/wishlist.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-i2c" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
