501 struct i2c_client *
502 i2c_new_device(struct i2c_adapter *adap, struct i2c_board_info const *info)

i2c_new_device(...)依据注册的struct i2c_adapter 和 struct  i2c_board_info 来初始化 struct  i2c_client 并返回 struct i2c_client ，并且 struct i2c_client 的 client->dev.bus 被初始化为 &i2c_bus_type 。struct   i2c_bus_type 成员 i2c_device_probe 用来匹配i2c_driver 和 i2c_client 中的 name 域。

315 struct bus_type i2c_bus_type = {
316         .name           = "i2c",
317         .match          = i2c_device_match,
318         .probe          = i2c_device_probe,
319         .remove         = i2c_device_remove,
320         .shutdown       = i2c_device_shutdown,
321         .pm             = &i2c_device_pm_ops,
322 };

相关函数实现源码如下：

485 /**
486  * i2c_new_device - instantiate an i2c device
487  * @adap: the adapter managing the device
488  * @info: describes one I2C device; bus_num is ignored
489  * Context: can sleep
490  *
491  * Create an i2c device. Binding is handled through driver model
492  * probe()/remove() methods.  A driver may be bound to this device when we
493  * return from this function, or any later moment (e.g. maybe hotplugging will
494  * load the driver module).  This call is not appropriate for use by mainboard
495  * initialization logic, which usually runs during an arch_initcall() long
496  * before any i2c_adapter could exist.
497  *
498  * This returns the new i2c client, which may be saved for later use with
499  * i2c_unregister_device(); or NULL to indicate an error.
