uart_register_driver

Name

uart_register_driver -- register a driver with the uart core layer

Synopsis

int uart_register_driver (struct uart_driver * drv);

Arguments

drv: low level driver structure

Description

Register a uart driver with the core driver. We in turn register with the tty layer, and initialise the core driver per-port state.

We have a proc file in /proc/tty/driver which is named after the normal driver.

drv->port should be NULL, and the per-port structures should be registered using uart_add_one_port after this call has succeeded.
