linux内核之sys接口device_add详解

设备模型之device

1.与device相关的函数有 

device_register(struct device *dev);

device_add(struct device *dev);

device_unregister(struct device *dev);

  与device attr相关函数:

device_create_file(struct device *dev,struct device_attribute *attr);

device_remove_file(struct device *dev,struct device_attribute *attr);

下面详细分析一下device_add中 在sys接口中创建的kobject与attribute；

int device_add(struct device *dev)
{
struct device *parent = NULL;
struct kobject *kobj;
struct class_interface *class_intf;

* for statically allocated devices, which should all be converted
* some day, we need to initialize the name. We prevent reading back
* the name, and force the use of dev_name()
*/

}


/* subsystems can specify simple device enumeration */
