Once you have done that, you will be able to use parport_claim and parport_release in order to use the port. +The ('name') argument is the name of the device that appears in /proc +filesystem. The string must be valid for the whole lifetime of the +device (until parport_unregister_device is called). + This function will register three callbacks into your driver: 'preempt', 'wakeup' and 'irq'. Each of these may be NULL in order to indicate that you do not want a callback. |
