drm_module_pci_driver(9)

okay so bestie, welcome to the drm_module_pci_driver(9) page from the Kernel API Manual ✨ this one is short but she is important.

💖 NAME 💖

drm_module_pci_driver — register a DRM driver for PCI-based devices 🫶

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

drm_module_pci_driver (__pci_drv );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• __pci_drv — the PCI driver structure, aka the whole struct bestie 💅

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

This registers a DRM driver for devices on the PCI bus. The helper macro behaves like module_pci_driver, but it tests the state of drm_firmware_drivers_only — that's the little check it does, no cap 👑

For more complex module initialization, use module_init and module_exit directly. Like, if you need extra steps, go direct, bestie.

Each module may only use this macro once. Calling it replaces module_init and module_exit. fr fr, once and done 🚨
