You can do that today by not providing any device ids in your driver structure, relying on the dynamic ids the driver core creates. > and the ability for a user to say that a device should not be bound to > a driver except via explicit sysfs bind. That's not going to happen, as how can the kernel know a specific device is going to want this, before it asks the drivers about it? Or, just don't ever create a driver that matches that device, then rely on userspace to do the binding explicitly. Either way, no driver core changes are needed from what I can tell. greg k-h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
