Subject: PCIExpress ATCA card Hotplug device driver

Hello,
 I have an ATCA card system and Linux PCI device drivers for the card.
 I need to implement automatic hotplug card insertion/removal
 capabilities in the system.
 My Linux is redhat 6 with kernel 3.0.9-rt26.46.el6rt.x86_64
 I have pciehp.ko module loaded at system boot and my PCIe card device
 driver follows the Linux device driver model.

 I have 2 questions:
 1) Does my Linux device driver needs to be changed to a service port
 driver? (if so how?)
 2) Do I need to use udev mechanism to handle hotplug along pciehp.ko
 module? (if so how?).

Can anyone give me a hand?
Thx in advance,
Ricardo-Fortuna
