Hi all, I want to figure what file operations are possible to a procfs file.
I read the pages 83-90 in the LDD3 and the sources (http://lxr.linux.no/#linux+v2.6.34/include/linux/proc_fs.h). Now, I am a little confused. The struct proc_dir_entry contains a struct file_operations. Thus I can implement all standard file operations on a proc file entry? And why do I use device files instead? Where are the advantages of a device file?
