USB_REGISTER_DRIVER(9) USB Core APIs USB_REGISTER_DRIVER(9)
NAME
usb_register_driver - register a USB interface driver
SYNOPSIS
int usb_register_driver(struct usb_driver * new_driver, struct module * owner, const char * mod_name);
ARGUMENTS
new_driver
USB operations for the interface driver
owner
module owner of this driver.
mod_name
module name string
DESCRIPTION
Registers a USB interface driver with the USB core. The list of unattached interfaces will be rescanned whenever a new driver is added,
allowing the new driver to attach to any recognized interfaces. Returns a negative error code on failure and 0 on success.
NOTE
if you want your driver to use the USB major number, you must call usb_register_dev to enable that functionality. This function no longer
takes care of that.
