I want to read from serial port (I mean the port, which is called /dev/ttyS0 in user-space). Then I want copy_to_user() it through /proc/serialPort This is just to get familiar with driver programming (in kernelspace), it could be better done in userspace - I know. But this is for learning. It is a kind of synthetic problem, but after this, I hope too know how to handle further ones. Understood? It is a little bit strange, but hope it is explained well. ;) If tell me that for /dev/ttyS0 I can adept it to /dev/ttyS1 etc.. thx > > Regards, > Tilman > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (MingW32) - GPGrelay v0.959 iD8DBQFGVck/AAomYJ1taN8RAiYwAJ96kYK6byxHea5MhvO0zaEB1yAXQQCdGS9c PFU39kx+d/xgj9QxusfEplc= =OeRZ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
