Hi,
This should be a basic question.
Does the regisetr_chrdev function make the device file under /dev directory?
I am running linux on our embedded system and inside vcs_init, register_chrdev
is called as below.
int __init vcs_init(void)
{
unsigned int i;
if (register_chrdev(VCS_MAJOR, "vcs", &vcs_fops))
panic("unable to get major %d for vcs device", VCS_MAJOR);
I can see the function is returning ok but I don't see any vcs* file under /dev.
Does it only register the device on /sys or /proc directory and not under /dev?
Thanks in advance.
Chan
