Petalinux Kernel Compatability

Hello,

I'm working on installing the gpib kernel drivers to the Petalinux
platform. So far, I've managed to get the headers and get the gpib drivers
compiled + installed. The modules show up with modprobe, and when I plug my
gpib dongle in the driver loads properly and it seems to recognize it.
Below is the message I get when plugging in the dongle:
[19163.768240] usb 1-1.4: new high-speed USB device number 11 using xhci-hcd
[19164.020393] usb 1-1.4: config 1 interface 0 altsetting 0 endpoint 0x81
has an invalid bInterval 0, changing to 7

[19164.056138] usb 1-1.4: SerialNumber: 01D9F4A4

Here is where the issue comes up. When ibopen goes to set things up with
the dongle, the /dev/gpib0 doesn't seem to be properly configured. I get
this message when I run the ibtest utility:
[84391.688217] gpib debug: pid 0, gpib: opening minor 0

I've been debugging this for a week or so now. I'm fairly confident that
the probing of the dongle works. In fact, when I find the dongle in the sys
path, I see that the module driver is in that path of the device itself:

The driver itself tells me that the interface registers properly too (my
apologies for the extra debug messages):
[85375.091233] ni_usb_gpib driver loading
[85375.098301] ni_usb_driver_probe
[85375.101436] set bus interface 0 to address 0x00000000bca009b3
[85375.107200] ni_usb_gpib: probe succeeded for path:

[85375.119145] usbcore: registered new interface driver ni_usb_gpib
[85375.128308] gpib: registered ni_usb_b interface

However, everywhere I look in the code doesn't indicate to me where the
disconnect occurs. I'm fairly certain the issue is that the /dev/gpib*
section isn't pointing to the dongle area and that's my problem. I've been
trying to create a workaround to this that shows the device working at all,
but I'm not having any luck there.
So I'm at a loss for where to go next. Any suggestions? RIght now, I'm
trying to figure out why I'm getting "interface=". I feel like that's the
underlying problem, but I can't confirm it.
Just in case, here is some extra information about he system I'm on:
Operating System: PetaLinux 2023.2+update-61_04172258- (langdale)
          Kernel: Linux 6.1.30-xilinx-v2023.2
    Architecture: arm64

Thanks,
Michael
