G'day all, Can anyone enlighten me on the correct place for normal char device nodes for the USB sub-system? In particular, should the default be /dev/usb/? The reason why I ask is that the part of the patch for the hiddev entries that affected devices.txt got dropped by Alan (probably because it needs to go to hpa). I assumed that the device nodes should be /dev/usb/hiddev0 through to /dev/usb/hiddev15, although some of the sample code assumes that they will be /dev/usb/hiddev/hiddev0 through to /dev/usb/hiddev/hiddev15. The devfs code seems to assume the latter too. I know that there was some discussion about more hierachial /dev some time ago, but I am not sure _how_ hierachial Linus wanted. This is starting to become important, since user space code that uses this (including a patch for NUT to support USB UPSen) is getting fairly close to release, and I really don't want to have to search both locations. Also, I'd hate to see distributions split over such a minor issue. I am happy to patch either way, but I'd like the policy first. Thoughts?
