Driver to Simulate Keypress

问题

i need to make a driver to emulate keypresses into a particular process in linux, can anyone help me with that?

It doesn't need to be a driver, but i believe there's no other way to do it, the OS is running with no screen manager and is using directfb to handle input

回答1:

try xdotool-- it's for writing mouse/keyboard macros.

$ xdotool type "hello world"

$ xdotool keydown x

etc

If you have the proper permissions, then you can use any of the read()/write() commands to interact with an arbitrary process in Linux.

Look at the /proc/ directory and you will see a file structure representation of the various components of each running process.

root@netbook:~# ll /proc/
total 4
dr-xr-xr-x 153 root       root                0 2011-06-19 23:14 ./
drwxr-xr-x  22 root       root             4096 2011-04-29 03:52 ../
dr-xr-xr-x   7 root       root                0 2011-06-22 15:58 1/
dr-xr-xr-x   7 root       root                0 2011-06-22 15:58 11/
...

I used ls for this example, but you can do this pragmatically with standard Linux libraries. Find the process you want to send keys to and open (with fopen or similar) the file /proc/{pid}/fd/0. This is the standard in (stdin) in Linux and anything you write to this character device will be interpreted as input.
