I'm having trouble with this. What's the dev_t for the child devices?
I'm doing
child_device = device_create(&my_class, &pdev->dev, MKDEV(0, 0),
NULL, "child");
pdev is the pci_device (intel-spi-pci)
dmesg shows
sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/class/my-class'
(call trace)
kobject_add_internal failed for my-class with -EEXIST, don't try
to register things with the same name in the same directory.
Even worse when I tried to remove the class:
I can't use device_destroy because there is no dev_t, so since it is
put_device(child_device);
device_unregister(child_device);
that caused a core dump too.
I tried also doing nothing with the child_device, but then I get a core dump.
Is all these caused by the MKDEV(0, 0) ?
