Hello,kernelnewbies
I am trying to develop a misc driver in 3.7.0 kernel.
As a basis I copy and paste this code, *without any change*,
http://virtlog.com/2008/03/25/linux-miscdevice-sample/
And build it.
after insmod I have :
[root@n miscDevice]\>ls -al /dev/mymisc
crw------- 1 root root 10, 59 Dec 19 10:24 /dev/mymisc
However, when trying to open this file I get:
open: No such file or directory
Any ideas why ?
You should implement open. Check this out [1]
The program with which I try to open the device is simple, a few lines
following here:
int main()
{
int fd;
fd = open("/dev/mymodule", O_RDONLY);
Isn't this supposed to be called /dev/mymisc ?
if (fd == -1) {
perror("open");
exit(1);
}
printf("open succeeded\n");
}
thanks,
Daniel.
