class_find_device(9)

NAME

class_find_device - device iterator for locating a particular device

SYNOPSIS

struct device * class_find_device(struct class * class, void * data,
                                  int (*match) (struct device *, void *));

ARGUMENTS

class
the class we´re iterating
data
data for the match function
match
function to check device

DESCRIPTION

This is similar to the class_for_each_dev function above, but it returns a reference to a device that is ´found´ for later use, as
determined by the match callback.

The callback should return 0 if the device doesn´t match and non-zero
if it does. If the callback returns non-zero, this function will return to the caller and not iterate over any more devices.

Note, you will need to drop the reference with put_device after use.

We hold class->sem in this function, so it can not be re-acquired in
match, otherwise it will self-deadlocking. For example, calls to add or remove class members would be verboten.
