利用udev、sys动态创建linux设备结点 linux, color, 动态

yuyang911220

在Linux 2.6内核中，devfs被认为是过时的方法，并最终被抛弃，udev取代了它。Devfs的一个很重要的特点就是可以动态创建设备结点。那我们现在如何通过udev和sys文件系统动态创建设备结点呢？
下面通过一个实例，说明udev、sys动态创建设备结点的方法。注意代码中红色的部分是为了实现动态创建设备结点添加的。

在编译了驱动后，可以查看/dev/farsight_dev设备结点，和 /sys/class/farsight_class/farsight_dev/



本代码的测试环境是Ubantu7.04，内核版本是2.6.20-15-generi。在不同版本的内核中，有些系统函数的参数可能不太一样。
