I'd like to write a device driver that passes all open/close/ioctls to a user space program that can deliver arbitrary results.
Questions:
1. Has somebody already done this? 2. What's the best user-kernel communication method? 3. If the answer is AF_NETLINK can anyone point me to example code or documentation?
Why? vmware virtual device to file image support mouse multiplexing (maybe gpmdata is better...) testing
