Better to make module B depend on module A. Making it global is
generally a bad idea.
in module A:
MODULE_VERSION(A, 1);
In module B:
MODULE_DEPEND(B, A, 1, 1, 1);

: PS. I am working on porting irda support for USB devices from NetBSD.
: The current model consists of two layers hw and sw. hw is the usb device
: driver. sw is some software layer the same for all device and it is a
: child on top of hw 'bus'. To make this working I need to add
: DRIVER_MODULE for each 'bus'. To make sw independent from the
: bus I need to export _driver and _class structures and put DRIVER_MODULE
: in 'bus' code instead of 'child'.
Are you sure that you need to do this? I'm pretty sure that you can
create a base class irdabus and then derive all the hw modules that
implement irdabus from than and all the children will automatically
probe. No need to export the driver/class structures.
