Query regarding pci_register_driver vs platform_driver_register

[Meena Jain <meetubansal@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

I have a query regarding pci_register_driver vs
platform_driver_register/platform_driver_probe.

I am writing a dcd for a PCI based USB device. Currently, I am
registering my device using pci_register_driver as shown below:

static const struct pci_device_id pci_ids [] = {

	{

        .vendor =       MY_VENDOR_ID,

        .device =       MY_DEVICE_ID,

        .subvendor =    PCI_ANY_ID,

        .subdevice =    PCI_ANY_ID,

	},

	{ /* end: all zeroes */ }

};

MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE (pci, pci_ids);



static struct pci_driver my_pci_driver = {

        .name =         (char *) driver_name,

        .id_table =     pci_ids,

        .probe =        my_probe,

        .remove =       my_remove,

};

	

static int __init init (void)

{

        return pci_register_driver (&my_pci_driver);

}

module_init (init);

I am able to successfully registered my device using
pci_register_driver and the control is reaching to "my_probe" function
as expected while registering the device.

Now, my query is:

Can I use platform_driver_register/platform_driver_probe instead of
pci_register_driver for registering the same device? If yes, then how?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks and Regards,
Meetu
