RIO_DEV_GET(9)                       RapidIO driver interface                      RIO_DEV_GET(9)



NAME
       rio_dev_get - Increments the reference count of the RIO device structure

SYNOPSIS
       struct rio_dev * rio_dev_get(struct rio_dev * rdev);

ARGUMENTS
       rdev
           RIO device being referenced

DESCRIPTION
       Each live reference to a device should be refcounted.

       Drivers for RIO devices should normally record such references in their probe methods,
       when they bind to a device, and release them by calling rio_dev_put, in their disconnect
       methods.
