.SH SYNOPSIS
.sp
\fB
.sp
int usb_register  (struct usb_driver * \fInew_driver\fB);
\fR
.SH "ARGUMENTS"
.TP
\fB\fInew_driver\fB\fR
USB operations for the driver
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
Registers a USB driver with the USB core.  The list of unattached
interfaces will be rescanned whenever a new driver is added, allowing
the new driver to attach to any recognized devices.
Returns a negative error code on failure and 0 on success.
.SH "NOTE"
.PP
if you want your driver to use the USB major number, you must call
\fBusb_register_dev\fR to enable that functionality.  This function no longer
takes care of that.
.SH "ABOUT THIS DOCUMENT"
