Hi all, To my understanding, all the devices are classified as either of the following: char (single char) , block (fixed size of chunk) and network (variable size of chunk)... And all the SCSI devices are accessed via /dev interface only (correct me if i am wrong). Only network devices are not accesible via /dev and will come different path of stack (TCP/IP or whatever). Is this a correct understanding??
AFAIK bus drivers like SCSI, PCI express, and Filesystem drivers & certain other misc drivers like hotplug driver etc may also not be directly accessible through /dev.
