Hi, I am writing a usb device driver that is loaded as a module into the kernel. My question is who allocates the major and minor numbers for my device driver (it's for a smartcard reader)? I saw in the device list that there are allocated major number for other usb devices, but not for the type I need.
Also, I understood that there is a way to communicate with the kernel driver from a user mode application without using the mknod command to create the link to the driver. I would be grateful if someone could explain how to use it and how to open a communication channel with the driver if this dynamic way is used. Thanks in advance, Amira. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, use the last form field at: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-usb-devel
