usb_driver_release_interface: unbind a driver from an interface

NAME

usb_driver_release_interface - unbind a driver from an interface

SYNOPSIS

void usb_driver_release_interface(struct usb_driver driver, struct usb_interface iface);

ARGUMENTS

driver

the driver to be unbound

iface

the interface from which it will be unbound

DESCRIPTION

This can be used by drivers to release an interface without waiting for their disconnect methods to be called. In typical cases this also causes the driver disconnect method to be called.

This call is synchronous, and may not be used in an interrupt context. Callers must own the device lock, so driver disconnect entries don't need extra locking, but other call contexts may need to explicitly claim that lock.
