.SH SYNOPSIS
"SYNOPSIS"
.sp
\fB
.sp
struct class_device * drm_sysfs_device_add  (struct drm_sysfs_class * \fIcs\fB, dev_t \fIdev\fB, struct device * \fIdevice\fB, const char * \fIfmt\fB,  \fI\&...\fB);
\fR
.SH "ARGUMENTS"
.TP
\fB\fIcs\fB\fR
pointer to the struct drm_sysfs_class that this device should be registered to.
.TP
\fB\fIdev\fB\fR
the dev_t for the device to be added.
.TP
\fB\fIdevice\fB\fR
a pointer to a struct device that is assiociated with this class device.
.TP
\fB\fIfmt\fB\fR
string for the class device's name
.TP
\fB\fI\&...\fB\fR
variable arguments
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
A struct class_device will be created in sysfs, registered to the specified
class.  A ``dev'' file will be created, showing the dev_t for the device.  The
pointer to the struct class_device will be returned from the call.  Any further
sysfs files that might be required can be created using this pointer.
.SH "NOTE"
.PP
the struct drm_sysfs_class passed to this function must have previously been
created with a call to \fBdrm_sysfs_create\fR\&.
