| 40 | Date: June 2019 |
| 41 | Contact: Cornelia Huck <cohuck@redhat.com> |
| 42 | linux-s390@vger.kernel.org |
| 43 | Description: This file allows the driver for a device to be specified. When |
| 44 | specified, only a driver with a name matching the value written |
| 45 | to driver_override will have an opportunity to bind to the |
| 46 | device. The override is specified by writing a string to the |
| 47 | driver_override file (echo vfio-ccw > driver_override) and |
| 48 | may be cleared with an empty string (echo > driver_override). |
| 49 | This returns the device to standard matching rules binding. |
| 50 | Writing to driver_override does not automatically unbind the |
| 51 | device from its current driver or make any attempt to |
| 52 | automatically load the specified driver. If no driver with a |
| 53 | matching name is currently loaded in the kernel, the device |
| 54 | will not bind to any driver. This also allows devices to |
| 55 | opt-out of driver binding using a driver_override name such as |
| 56 | "none". Only a single driver may be specified in the override, |
| 57 | there is no support for parsing delimiters. |

| David Brazdil | 0f672f6 | 2019-12-10 10:32:29 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 59 | Note that unlike the mechanism of the same name for pci, this |
| 60 | file does not allow to override basic matching rules. I.e., |
| 61 | the driver must still match the subchannel type of the device. |
