ethernet节点中有一个非常关键的信息保存在compatible这个属性中,它标识了这个device的名字,在linux启动时,总线(bus)会通过相同的compatible匹配device和driver。在上面的示例代码中,有compatible有两个值,会按照顺序匹配出现在第一个位置(本例中为nvidia,tegra186-eqos)上的driver,如果没有这个driver
Linux设备模型的目的:为内核建立一个统一的设备模型,从而又一个对系统结构的一般性抽象描述。 换句话说,Linux设备模型提取了设备操作的共同属性,进行抽象,并将这部分共同的属性在内核中实现,而为需要新添加设备或驱动提供一般性的统一接口,这使得驱动程序的开发变得更简单了,而程序员只需要去学习接口就行了。 在内核...
Probe的规则是:如果BUS上实现了probe就用BUS的probe;否则才会用driver的probe。 Device一般是先于Driver注册,但也不全是这样的顺序。Linux的Device和Driver的注册过程分别枚举挂在该BUS上所有的Driver和Device实现了这种时序无关性。

Overall, the probe function plays a crucial role in the initialization of MTD devices in Linux systems. It ensures that the devices are properly detected, configured, and registered with the MTD subsystem, allowing them to be accessed and used by other parts of the kernel. By understanding the...

This change attempts to make the "probe each device" case cleaner. The current approach is to have all options added and enabled in the device tree. The kernel would then bind each device and run each driver's probe function. This works, but has been broken before due to the introduction...
