Re: RF class driver
It might be worth taking a look at the Socket CAN drivers (https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/can.txt). It’s not the same type of hardware as the RF devices you’re working with, but it is a case where a network interface was created for devices that are very different than Ethernet.

Those are almost always integrated directly into a wifi chipset, and not independant. If you have an independant device, the GNU Radio project might be a good thing to look into. good luck! greg k-h ___ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@kernelnewbies.org https://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies

I wanted to know in which class RF Transceivers - (Sub 1 -Ghz devices) Linux drivers will fall and where to find them in Linux kernel , I grepped keywords like Ghz, Sub , and it leads me to the folder drivers/net/wireless/* but I am not getting whether they refer to the RF class of drivers or something else.Is there a framework for them or all will come under Wireless device drivers or network device drivers?What is the appropriate mailing list for the same? Few example of such devices are - Sub-1 GHz CC1120-CC1190 - From Texas Instruments nRF905 - From Nordic Semiconductor nRF9E5 - From Nordic Semiconductor nRF24L01 - From Texas Instruments Si4455 - From Silicon Labs OL23xx - From Nxp. I am writing a device driver for the one of the new RF device and wanted to refer few examples before that.

RF class driver
Hi, I was looking at the different class of the drivers and wanted to know in which class will the RF transciever will fall. Network driver or the IIO driver.How to get the maintainer list name for the same, I ran get_maintainer.pl but couldnt figure out who will be the maintainer for the same.
