doubt about char drivers

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello everybody

I'm reading the "Linux Device Drivers" (Alessandro
Rubini), and i'm in chapter that we learn to build a
char driver. I'm necesarilly at the point where he
argues about dynamical allocation of major numbers but
i have one doubt (for the moment), if i use the
dynamical allocation, its because i dont have a one
major number exclusive of my char driver and then..
who will make the device nodes to my char driver?! I
have to guide my driver to print the major number that
it found dynamically and then make the nodes manually?


Forgive eventual english mistakes.. 

Atenciosamente, thr~~
