Hello, I want to undestand the keyboard driver for pc. I saw that there is two files : pc_keyb.c keyboard.c The first is specific to the architecture, pc, and the second is general. The keyboard use the IRQ 1, KEYBOARD_BH. In pc_keyb.c, the kernel request the IRQ, and executes the function keyboard_interrupt when this IRQ appends. keyboard_interrupt locks the irq and execute handle_kbd_event, which read the scancode with kbd_read_input and execute handle_keyboard_event. In keyboard.c, the kernel create a task kbd_bh, but I don't understand what does this task... So I didn't undestand a lot with the reading of the code. I want to know how the driver give the keyboard code to the user sapce and when. Can somebody give me a help, or a web page address ?
