Why are you doing both here? Just stick with the misc device, no need for anything else. > + if (IS_ERR(vduse_class)) { > + ret = PTR_ERR(vduse_class); > + goto err_class; > + } > + vduse_class->devnode = vduse_devnode; > + > + ret = alloc_chrdev_region(&vduse_major, 0, VDUSE_DEV_MAX, "vduse"); Wait, you want a whole major? What is the misc device for? > +MODULE_VERSION(DRV_VERSION); MODULE_VERSION() makes no sense when the code is merged into the kernel tree, so you can just drop that. thanks, greg k-h
