The I2C core always reports a MODALIAS of the form i2c:<foo> even if the device was registered via OF, this means that exporting the OF device ID table device aliases in the module is not needed. But in order to change how the core reports modaliases to user-space, it's better to export it. Before this patch: $ modinfo drivers/media/i2c/et8ek8/et8ek8.ko | grep alias alias: i2c:et8ek8 After this patch: $ modinfo drivers/media/i2c/et8ek8/et8ek8.ko | grep alias alias: i2c:et8ek8 alias: of:N*T*Ctoshiba,et8ek8C* alias: of:N*T*Ctoshiba,et8ek8 Signed-off-by: Javier Martinez Canillas <javier@osg.samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com> |

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
