| |
The patch
spi: ath79: Fix module autoload for OF registration
has been applied to the spi tree at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/spi.git
All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.
You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.
If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced.
Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail.
Thanks, Mark
From d7a32394e734a004126b454cf747befb626b93ac Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Javier Martinez Canillas <javier@osg.samsung.com> Date: Wed, 23 Nov 2016 13:37:11 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] spi: ath79: Fix module autoload for OF registration
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/spi/spi-ath79.ko | grep alias alias: platform:ath79-spi
After this patch:
$ modinfo drivers/spi/spi-ath79.ko | grep alias alias: platform:ath79-spi alias: of:N*T*Cqca,ar7100-spiC* alias: of:N*T*Cqca,ar7100-spi
