问题
I have a written Linux device (implement as a interface) and a perl script, I need those two to communicate among them while executing(perl to device). I have thought of writing to a file and reading from it. but i think it is not an ideal one. can any one point me to more good solution.
回答1:
In addition to the methods Joachim mentioned also look into creating a character or block device so you can access it through /dev/somenode. That's probably the preferred way if your driver is really offering a service or an interface to a device.
Alternatively, and better than an ioctl() interface, you can use netlink sockets. They're actually even easier to implement than ioctl()s, and are more likely to be accepted upstream.
回答2:
There are two ways of doing this: Either have one or more files in e.g. /proc that is written to or read from.
The second is to use special ioctl commands on the device file.
