As far as I understand the kernel exclusively uses the VID/PID reported by
the USB device, the compatible string in the device tree is purely
informational (though this driver uses it for the platform device).

Ok, thanks your reply.

Here is my question, we must modify the driver "onboard_usb_hub.c" if we want to use it. But it's hard to complete because it's an opensource code.

My suggestion is can we use a common compatible string for onboard_hub_driver which is a platform_driver, and read compatible string from device tree for onboard_hub_usbdev_driver which is a usb_device_driver.

If so, we only need to modify our device tree if we want to use the driver.


Best regards,
