If the driver is built as a module, autoload won't work because the module alias information is not filled. So user-space can't match the registered device with the corresponding module. Export the module alias information using the MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() macro. Before this patch: $ modinfo drivers/auxdisplay/img-ascii-lcd.ko | grep alias $ After this patch: $ modinfo drivers/auxdisplay/img-ascii-lcd.ko | grep alias alias: of:N*T*Cmti,sead3-lcdC* alias: of:N*T*Cmti,sead3-lcd alias: of:N*T*Cmti,malta-lcdC* alias: of:N*T*Cmti,malta-lcd alias: of:N*T*Cimg,boston-lcdC* alias: of:N*T*Cimg,boston-lcd Signed-off-by: Javier Martinez Canillas <javier@osg.samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
