Hi I am trying to understand how the driver probe and loading works from a kernel level. I am working on changing the NAND chip used on the DM365 EVM and have managed to determine that the davinci_nand driver is not loading for the new chip because the platform_match function never finds it in the list of drivers loaded. How does a driver determine whether it should be loaded? I have seen the probe function defined in the drivers/base/platform.c as well as the drivers/mtd/nand/davinci_nand.c but am not sure of the process and how these are being used.
Sorry I am new to kernel development so I am sure I have not asked this question the best way so if there is anything else I can provide to help answer my question then please let me know.
