USB_REGISTER_DRIVER(9)                    USB Core APIs                    USB_REGISTER_DRIVER(9)



NAME
       usb_register_driver - register a USB interface driver

SYNOPSIS
       int usb_register_driver(struct usb_driver * new_driver, struct module * owner,
                               const char * mod_name);

ARGUMENTS
       new_driver
           USB operations for the interface driver

       owner
           module owner of this driver.

       mod_name
           module name string

DESCRIPTION
       Registers a USB interface driver with the USB core. The list of unattached interfaces will
       be rescanned whenever a new driver is added, allowing the new driver to attach to any
       recognized interfaces.

RETURN
       A negative error code on failure and 0 on success.

NOTE
       if you want your driver to use the USB major number, you must call usb_register_dev to
       enable that functionality. This function no longer takes care of that.
