[PATCH 0/3] vc04_services: Tweak module autoloading support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



As explained by Greg KH in [1], we should not be using MODULE_ALIAS
to auto load modules within VC04. Drop that, in favour of
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE. This series addresses the suggestion.

Patch 1/3 adds vchiq_bus_device_id and supporting entries in 
script/mod/file2alias.c

Patch 2/3 drops MODULE_ALIAS from bcm2835-audio in favour
of MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE.

Patch 3/3 drops MODULE_ALIAS from bcm2835-camera in favour
of MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE.
