Hi, I am new to Linux Device Driver and reading LDD3. It mentions that the disadvantage of dynamic major number allocation is that you can’t create the device nodes in advance, because the major number assigned to your module will vary. To solve this problem, it says that create a script to invoke insmod and after calling insmod, reads /proc/devices in order to create the special file(s). My question is, is there no way to do it inside the module? How other modules does? --- Vijay -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-pci" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
