You shouldn't have to modprobe it. Do you have a MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE in your driver? This is what makes it modprobe automatically. Even without this though, it should probe you if you modprobe manually. This leads me to believe something is not correct in your board file. > We are expecting a new physical driver that could be detected with the "iz > listphy" userspace tool from Linux-zigbee (like a "wpan-phyX" interface).

The SPI subsystem probes you if it believes that your driver is responsible for communicating with an SPI device which it believes is connected to the system. This relationship is set up like you said with the .modalias and the .name. I think you have it set up incorrectly in the board file. Post your code and we can take a look.
