Sorry missed ur whole details. In that case, u modify the existing driver and call ur part of ur code from common probe depending on ur special condition otherwise keep the existing flow.
There could be couple of ways: 1. If you have access to the kernel and going to flash the same on your mobile, then you can modify the common probe of the SD card subsystem and let it call your driver depending on the card and default driver in case of other card. This will hold true if you can differentiate between the cards. 2. If you dont have kernel sources then you can remove the default driver temporarily while your SD card is in place and load it later. You may need another module to do this. This will work in a scenario where you just have one slot for SD Card.

Hi Arun, Thanks for your reply. I have ever thought about this method, but my sd driver is only for my own special sd card which is not the common sd card and my driver could not deal with the common sd card. So I need the default sd driver for other common sd cards. I hope that mmc core could let my driver probe first, if the sd card is my special one, my driver will operate it in my own way, otherwise mmc core will call the prob function of the default sd driver then.

Is there any method to make my driver probe the sd card before the default sd driver? Why can't you disable the default sd card driver in your .config?
