mknod? this sounds like you are following advice from the 1990s.
these days mknod is hardly ever needed: instead any devicefiles will be
created on the fly by the resp. drivers.

a little bit of googling hints that /dev/ttyAMA0 is indeed the name for
the serial interface on the GPIO ports - which afaiu is what you want.

so you just use that device.


then you need to get the permissions correct.
check whether the device is already setup to allow group-members to
write to it, and which group that is:
$ ls -l /dev/ttyAMA0
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 4, 67 Sep  3 16:12 /dev/ttyAMA0

and eventually add the user running Pd to that group:
pd@raspbian $ sudo bash
root@raspbian # adduser pd dialout

after that you only need to re-login as that user to let the new group
membership have any effect.
