Hey all. I'm working on my first Linux kernel module. It's an adaptation of an hd44780-over-GPIO driver. You can see it here:
https://github.com/brnt/openwrt-hd44780 The driver is working fine, but I'd like to allow the user to configure which GPIOs are used by the driver. Rather than hard-coding the values in the C file (as they're currently done) I'd prefer to read values from a config file (or the equivalent). Is there a best practice for doing this at the kernel level module? In my googling, I've seen comments indicating that reading from files at the kernel level is a no-no? I'd prefer not to have to pass commands to insmod and instead allow a static file (potentially managed by uci). What's the right way to do this? -- Brent _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
