Hi,

I was wondering that while using dynamic device numner allocation, can
we ever have a scenario like following (using alloc_chrdev_region):

1) Char Driver A is hooked on Major num X, minor numbers 0-10
2) Char Driver B is hooked on (same) Major num X, minor numbers 11-20

If yes, how will the userland get to know about the dynamically
allocated range (needed to create device nodes), since /proc/devices
only shows major numbers?

Thanks,

Rajat
