If you create a device with a call to device_create() with a dev_t set, it is usually cleaned up with a call to device_destroy(), but you are right, a simple call to device_unregister() will still work properly. So nevermind, sorry for the noise. What you do need to determine is if this is a device node you really want to be creating in this manner, as it is a new user/kernel API, right? greg k-h _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
