You may want to look at ng_device.
Be prepared for rough edges though ;)

Simulate device-file in userland?

2004-07-26 Thread Jan Branbergen
Dear Sirs,

is it appreciated if i introduce myself first? if so, please let me know.

i was wondering if it is possible to simulate a device-file ( for example a serial 
port or videograbbing device ) in userland? 

i have looked at mkfifo, but i think that does not suit my needs: i am interested in 
ioctl calls as well. 

are there any examples in ports? is this possible at all?

regards,

Jan___
