USB_GET_INTF(9) USB Core APIs USB_GET_INTF(9)
NAME
usb_get_intf - increments the reference count of the usb interface structure
SYNOPSIS
struct usb_interface * usb_get_intf(struct usb_interface * intf);
ARGUMENTS
intf
the interface being referenced
DESCRIPTION
Each live reference to a interface must be refcounted.
Drivers for USB interfaces should normally record such references in their probe methods, when they bind to an interface, and release them
by calling usb_put_intf, in their disconnect methods.
A pointer to the interface with the incremented reference counter is returned.
