Unfortunately, quite a lot of the material in
Documentation/usb/hotplug.txt is sadly out of date.
If so, I would again go over and submit a patch.
Docs in kernel source has to be perfect since for me and lot others that
is the ultimate source of help.
However the
sentence you quoted is not.
The sentence is accurate. "USB subsystem" refers to part of the
kernel; there is no USB subsystem in userspace. Furthermore the udev
and modprobe programs don't choose drivers to _probe_; they choose
drivers to _load_. The decision about which drivers to probe is made
entirely by the USB subsystem in the kernel, based on the drivers'
device ID tables.
Yeah. Got clear everything. Thanks.
