If the driver is built as a module, autoload won't work because the module alias information is not filled so user-space can't match the registered device with the corresponding module.
Export the module alias information using the MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() macro. Before this patch: $ modinfo drivers/rtc/rtc-asm9260.ko | grep alias $ After this patch: $ modinfo drivers/rtc/rtc-asm9260.ko | grep alias alias: of:N*T*Calphascale,asm9260-rtcC* alias: of:N*T*Calphascale,asm9260-rtc Signed-off-by: Javier Martinez Canillas <jav...@osg.samsung.com> --- drivers/rtc/rtc-asm9260.c | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/drivers/rtc/rtc-asm9260.c b/drivers/rtc/rtc-asm9260.c index 18a93d3e3f93..d36534965635 100644 --- a/drivers/rtc/rtc-asm9260.c +++ b/drivers/rtc/rtc-asm9260.c @@ -327,6 +327,7 @@ static const struct of_device_id asm9260_dt_ids[] = { { .compatible = "alphascale,asm9260-rtc", }, {} }; +MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(of, asm9260_dt_ids); static struct platform_driver asm9260_rtc_driver = { .probe = asm9260_rtc_probe, -- 2.7.4 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to "rtc-linux".
