1，driver_register把驱动注册到总线

/** * driver_register - register driver with bus * @drv: driver to register * We pass off most of the work to the bus_add_driver() call, * since most of the things we have to do deal with the bus * structures. */int driver_register(struct device_driver *drv){……………………if ((drv->bus->probe && drv->probe) ||    (drv->bus->remove && drv->remove) ||    (drv->bus->shutdown && drv->shutdown))ret = bus_add_driver(drv);//把drv驱动，注册到总线……………………}

2，驱动注册到总线的实现函数

/** * bus_add_driver - Add a driver to the bus.        -----在总线上加入一个驱动 * @drv: driver. */int bus_add_driver(struct device_driver *drv){………………if (drv->bus->p->drivers_autoprobe) {error = driver_attach(drv);      //驱动的匹配函数………………}

3，driver_attach()

/** * driver_attach - try to bind driver to devices. * @drv: driver. * * Walk the list of devices that the bus has on it and try to * match the driver with each one.  If driver_probe_device() * returns 0 and the @dev->driver is set, we've found a * compatible pair. */int driver_attach(struct device_driver *drv){return bus_for_each_dev(drv->bus, NULL, drv, __driver_attach);//注意这里的__driver_attach}EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(driver_attach);

上面真正起作用的是__driver_attach：

static int __driver_attach(struct device *dev, void *data){struct device_driver *drv = data;/* * Lock device and try to bind to it. We drop the error * here and always return 0, because we need to keep trying * to bind to devices and some drivers will return an error * simply if it didn't support the device. * * driver_probe_device() will spit a warning if there * is an error. */if (!driver_match_device(drv, dev))return 0;if (dev->parent)/* Needed for USB */device_lock(dev->parent);device_lock(dev);if (!dev->driver)driver_probe_device(drv, dev);//看下这个函数的实现过程device_unlock(dev);if (dev->parent)device_unlock(dev->parent);return 0;}int driver_probe_device(structdevice_driver *drv, struct device *dev){...//1.先是判断bus是否match：if (drv->bus->match && !drv->bus->match(dev, drv))   goto done;//2.再具体执行probe：ret = really_probe(dev, drv);...}

4,really_probe是我们真正要找的函数

static int really_probe(struct device *dev, struct device_driver *drv){……………………//1.先是调用的驱动所属总线的probe函数：if (dev->bus->probe) {ret = dev->bus->probe(dev);if (ret)goto probe_failed;} //2.再调用的驱动中的probe函数：else if (drv->probe) {ret = drv->probe(dev);if (ret)goto probe_failed;}driver_bound(dev);ret = 1;pr_debug("bus: '%s': %s: bound device %s to driver %s\n", drv->bus->name, __func__, dev_name(dev), drv->name);//这个信息可以看到我们注册的总 驱动、设备和总线  信息goto done;………………}

打印出的驱动设备信息如：

………………
