Thanks. Should I have to rebuild kernel when a new spi slave device is added?
Is any non-static way (no need to rebuild kernel) to register spi slave device in driver level? That case I don't have to rebuild kernel, but using driver modules to fill necessary devive info and register driver. ----- Original Message ---- From: andrzej zaborowski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Jerry Shao <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: [email protected] Sent: Monday, February 25, 2008 4:38:48 AM Subject: Re: SPI device driver question On 25/02/2008, Jerry Shao <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I am working on FIC phone (gta01) to add a new spi device.

Yes, exactly. As with platform_devices, the .name field needs to match that of the driver. Note that the probe function is not invoked immediately when spi_register_driver is called. It will be called later in the boot sequence. Regards -- Please do not print this email unless absolutely necessary.
