Doubt In Char Drivers

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

 



Hi All,

I am following LDD3 for Char Drivers. So we writing a kernel module(char driver) after that creating a char file which is representation of Character Device. So my doubt is how we will communicate with real hardware device let suppose how to communicate with our monitor .
Can any one please explain how we will communicate with real hardware for read/write calls?
And what is mknod is doing internally when we are creating char/block devices?

Thanks in Advance
