Now the way it works is that you use an ordinary struct device, with the class pointer set up and with the parent pointing to the device that class_device->dev used to point to. To see an example of this, you can look at: commit ee959b00c335d7780136c5abda37809191fe52c3 Author: Tony Jones <tonyj@xxxxxxx> Date: Fri Feb 22 00:13:36 2008 +0100 SCSI: convert struct class_device to struct device James -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
