[PATCH 00/02] [RFC] Add dynamic id support to all USB drivers

From: Greg KH
Date: Wed Nov 16 2005 - 19:48:03 EST


Here's two patches against the latest -git tree that add the ability to
add new vendor/product device id pairs to USB drivers after they have
been loaded. It works just like the PCI drivers do, with the exception
that only vendor/product can be specified (no class stuff.) I did it
this way to make it simpler, as that's almost all anyone ever wants to
add.

Note that usb-serial drivers do not work properly with these dynamic ids
yet, it's going to take some rework of the usb-serial core due to the
wierd way it binds drivers to devices to get this to work properly.

Comments?

thanks,

greg k-h
