linux内核module_platform_driver宏解析

该函数实际是一个宏,module_platform_driver在include/linux/platform_device.h中定义如下:

/* module_platform_driver() - Helper macro for drivers that don't do
 * anything special in module init/exit.  This eliminates a lot of
 * boilerplate.  Each module may only use this macro once, and
 * calling it replaces module_init() and module_exit()
 */
#define module_platform_driver(__platform_driver) \
	module_driver(__platform_driver, platform_driver_register, \
			platform_driver_unregister)

module_driver宏在/include/linux/device.h中定义如下:

/**
 * module_driver() - Helper macro for drivers that don't do anything
 * special in module init/exit. This eliminates a lot of boilerplate.
 * Each module may only use this macro once, and calling it replaces
 * module_init() and module_exit().
 *
 * @__driver: driver name
 * @__register: register function for this driver type
 * @__unregister: unregister function for this driver type
 * @...: Additional arguments to be passed to __register and __unregister.
 *
 * Use this macro to construct bus specific macros for registering
 * drivers, and do not use it on its own.
 */
#define module_driver(__driver, __register, __unregister, ...) \
static int __init __driver##_init(void) \
{ \
	return __register(&(__driver) , ##__VA_ARGS__); \
} \
module_init(__driver##_init); \
static void __exit __driver##_exit(void) \
{ \
	__unregister(&(__driver) , ##__VA_ARGS__); \
} \
module_exit(__driver##_exit);

因此,module_platform_driver(xxx);
最终展开后就是如下形式:
static int __init xxx_init(void)
{
        return platform_driver_register(&xxx);
}
module_init(xxx_init);
static void __exit xxx_init(void)
{
        return platform_driver_unregister(&xxx);
}
module_exit(xxx_exit);


由上述定义可知,module_platform_driver()宏的作用就是定义指定名称的平台设备驱动注册函数和平台设备驱动注销函数,并且在函数体内分别通过platform_driver_register()函数和platform_driver_unregister()函数注册和注销该平台设备驱动。如果在平台设备驱动注册函数和注销函数中,没有其它的特别处理的话,可以直接使用宏module_platform_driver来实现平台设备驱动的注册和注销。
