Driver core: udev triggered device-<>driver binding
We get two per-bus sysfs files: ls-l /sys/subsystem/usb drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 2007-02-16 16:42 devices drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 0 2007-02-16 14:55 drivers -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 2007-02-16 16:42 drivers_autoprobe --w------- 1 root root 4096 2007-02-16 16:42 drivers_probe The flag "drivers_autoprobe" controls the behavior of the bus to bind devices by default, or just initialize the device and leave it alone. The command "drivers_probe" accepts a bus_id and the bus tries to bind a driver to this device. Systems who want to control the driver binding with udev, switch off the bus initiated probing: echo 0 > /sys/subsystem/usb/drivers_autoprobe echo 0 > /sys/subsystem/pcmcia/drivers_autoprobe ... and initiate the probing with udev rules like: ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{subsystem/drivers_probe}="$kernel" ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="pcmcia", ATTR{subsystem/drivers_probe}="$kernel" ... Custom driver binding can happen in earlier rules by something like: ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", \ ATTRS{idVendor}=="1234", ATTRS{idProduct}=="5678" \ ATTR{subsystem/drivers/<custom-driver>/bind}="$kernel" This is intended to solve the modprobe.conf mess with "install-rules", custom bind/unbind-scripts and all the weird things people invented over the years. It should also provide the functionality "libusual" was supposed to do. With udev, one can just write a udev rule to drive all USB-disks at the third port of USB-hub by the "ub" driver, and everything else by usb-storage. One can also instruct udev to bind different wireless drivers to identical cards - just selected by the pcmcia slot-number, and whatever ... To use the mentioned rules, it needs udev version 106, to be able to write ATTR{}="$kernel" to sysfs files. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
