UART_REGISTER_DRIVER(9) 					 16x50 UART Driver					   UART_REGISTER_DRIVER(9)

NAME
       uart_register_driver - register a driver with the uart core layer

SYNOPSIS
       int uart_register_driver(struct uart_driver * drv);

ARGUMENTS
       drv
	   low level driver structure

DESCRIPTION
       Register a uart driver with the core driver. We in turn register with the tty layer, and initialise the core driver per-port state.

       We have a proc file in /proc/tty/driver which is named after the normal driver.

       drv->port should be NULL, and the per-port structures should be registered using uart_add_one_port after this call has succeeded.
