+ * DOC: DEVICE_LIFESPAN
+ *
+ * The registering driver is the entity that allocates memory for the
+ * auxiliary_device and registers it on the auxiliary bus. It is important to
+ * note that, as opposed to the platform bus, the registering driver is wholly
+ * responsible for the management of the memory used for the device object.
+ *
+ * To be clear the memory for the auxiliary_device is freed in the release()
+ * callback defined by the registering driver. The registering driver should
+ * only call auxiliary_device_delete() and then auxiliary_device_uninit() when
+ * it is done with the device. The release() function is then automatically
+ * called if and when other code releases their reference to the devices.
+ *
+ * A parent object, defined in the shared header file, contains the
+ * auxiliary_device. It also contains a pointer to the shared object(s), which
+ * also is defined in the shared header. Both the parent object and the shared
+ * object(s) are allocated by the registering driver. This layout allows the
+ * auxiliary_driver's registering module to perform a container_of() call to go
+ * from the pointer to the auxiliary_device, that is passed during the call to
+ * the auxiliary_driver's probe function, up to the parent object, and then
+ * have access to the shared object(s).
+ *
+ * The memory for the shared object(s) must have a lifespan equal to, or
+ * greater than, the lifespan of the memory for the auxiliary_device. The
+ * auxiliary_driver should only consider that the shared object is valid as
+ * long as the auxiliary_device is still registered on the auxiliary bus. It
+ * is up to the registering driver to manage (e.g. free or keep available) the
+ * memory for the shared object beyond the life of the auxiliary_device.
+ *
+ * The registering driver must unregister all auxiliary devices before its own
+ * driver.remove() is completed. An easy way to ensure this is to use the
+ * devm_add_action_or_reset() call to register a function against the parent
+ * device which unregisters the auxiliary device object(s).
+ *
+ * Finally, any operations which operate on the auxiliary devices must continue
+ * to function (if only to return an error) after the registering driver
+ * unregisters the auxiliary device.

+ * struct auxiliary_device - auxiliary device object.
+ * @dev: Device,
+ * The release and parent fields of the device structure must be filled
+ * in
+ * @name: Match name found by the auxiliary device driver,
+ * @id: unique identitier if multiple devices of the same name are exported,
+ *
+ * An auxiliary_device represents a part of its parent device's functionality.
+ * It is given a name that, combined with the registering drivers
+ * KBUILD_MODNAME, creates a match_name that is used for driver binding, and an
+ * id that combined with the match_name provide a unique name to register with
+ * the bus subsystem. For example, a driver registering an auxiliary device is
+ * named 'foo_mod.ko' and the subdevice is named 'foo_dev'. The match name is
+ * therefore 'foo_mod.foo_dev'.
+ *
+ * Registering an auxiliary_device is a three-step process.
+ *
+ * First, a 'struct auxiliary_device' needs to be defined or allocated for each
+ * sub-device desired. The name, id, dev.release, and dev.parent fields of
+ * this structure must be filled in as follows.
+ *
+ * The 'name' field is to be given a name that is recognized by the auxiliary
+ * driver. If two auxiliary_devices with the same match_name, eg
+ * "foo_mod.foo_dev", are registered onto the bus, they must have unique id
+ * values (e.g. "x" and "y") so that the registered devices names are
+ * "foo_mod.foo_dev.x" and "foo_mod.foo_dev.y". If match_name + id are not
+ * unique, then the device_add fails and generates an error message.
+ *
+ * The auxiliary_device.dev.type.release or auxiliary_device.dev.release must
+ * be populated with a non-NULL pointer to successfully register the
+ * auxiliary_device. This release call is where resources associated with the
+ * auxiliary device must be free'ed. Because once the device is placed on the
+ * bus the parent driver can not tell what other code may have a reference to
+ * this data.
+ *
+ * The auxiliary_device.dev.parent should be set. Typically to the registering
+ * drivers device.
+ *
+ * Second, call auxiliary_device_init(), which checks several aspects of the
+ * auxiliary_device struct and performs a device_initialize(). After this step
+ * completes, any error state must have a call to auxiliary_device_uninit() in
+ * its resolution path.
+ *
+ * The third and final step in registering an auxiliary_device is to perform a
+ * call to auxiliary_device_add(), which sets the name of the device and adds
+ * the device to the bus.
+ *
+ * .. code-block:: c
+ *
+ * #define MY_DEVICE_NAME "foo_dev"
+ *
+ * ...
+ *
+ * struct auxiliary_device *my_aux_dev = my_aux_dev_alloc(xxx);
+ *
+ * // Step 1:
+ * my_aux_dev->name = MY_DEVICE_NAME;
+ * my_aux_dev->id = my_unique_id_alloc(xxx);
+ * my_aux_dev->dev.release = my_aux_dev_release;
+ * my_aux_dev->dev.parent = my_dev;
+ *
+ * // Step 2:
+ * if (auxiliary_device_init(my_aux_dev))
+ * goto fail;
+ *
+ * // Step 3:
+ * if (auxiliary_device_add(my_aux_dev)) {
+ * auxiliary_device_uninit(my_aux_dev);
+ * goto fail;
+ * }
+ *
+ * ...
+ *
+ *
+ * Unregistering an auxiliary_device is a two-step process to mirror the
+ * register process. First call auxiliary_device_delete(), then call
+ * auxiliary_device_uninit().
+ *
+ * .. code-block:: c
+ *
+ * auxiliary_device_delete(my_dev->my_aux_dev);
+ * auxiliary_device_uninit(my_dev->my_aux_dev);
