Out of tree HID driver

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

 



Hi everyone,

I'm trying to make a DKMS package with the HID drivers I've implemented, to
make it easier for the users to install them before a kernel releases with
them appears in their distributions.

I've managed to build and install them easily, and they get loaded upon
device insertion, but are not otherwise used, probably because the devices
are not in hid-core.c hid_have_special_driver array.

I'm sorry, I'm not proficient in the kernel internals and wasn't able to
understand quickly how to solve this. Is there a way for an out-of-tree
module to be used instead of the generic driver? If not, could it be
implemented?

As a code example you could take a look at hid-kye.c. Only my version has
more devices there and I got rid of the private hid-ids.h include.

Thanks!

Sincerely,
Nick
