spi_board_info and module automatic load

I register a spi_board_info on my board-*.c file as this

http://pastebin.com/nUGuvt71

Then create my module named mydevice.ko

Is this enought to get the module loaded automatically or I'm missing something?

Cheers

I'm guessing something is missing, otherwise you wouldn't be asking us, right?

No MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() line?

We have to follow the following steps
1.
static struct spi_board_info your_board_info[] __initdata = { {
.modalias = "driver_name",
.....
}
2. Register your board with: spi_register_board_info()
3. you have to add device to the device table with MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(spi, your_device_id).

your device id name should be the modalise name that you are providing in spi_board_info().

These steps may help you.
