Message-ID: <B1C038EEDA7E0344BC837F2D591C949803B7EC0A@blr-m3-msg.wipro.com> Date: Tue, 18 Jan 2011 10:25:08 +0530 From: <ananth.sundapalayam@...ro.com> To: <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> Subject: RE: Regarding platform drivers Hi, I noticed that certain drivers are registered as platform drivers. As a driver writer, what factors do I need to consider to decide if my driver would be a platform driver or a "regular" driver? If I have a DMA controller connected to the CPU via a Network-On-Chip, could I write a regular driver for it or does it need to be a platform driver? Thanks in advance, Best Regards, Ananth.
