Major 216 was ttyUB%d (looks normal), but is now rfcomm%d instead? The description claims that the device is a tty, yet it no longer has a tty name?
Char major 204, the low-density serial ports, has some sort of problem with the /dev/ttyCPM%d devices. Depending on how I read things, there are 2, 4, or 6 of these.
Minors claimed: 46, 47 Minors available: 46, 47, 48, 49 Names claimed: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 The description: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
Here it is in context:
44 = /dev/ttyMM0 Marvell MPSC - port 0 45 = /dev/ttyMM1 Marvell MPSC - port 1 46 = /dev/ttyCPM0 PPC CPM (SCC or SMC) - port 0 ... 47 = /dev/ttyCPM5 PPC CPM (SCC or SMC) - port 5 50 = /dev/ttyIOC0 Altix serial card ... 81 = /dev/ttyIOC31 Altix serial card 82 = /dev/ttyVR0 NEC VR4100 series SIU 83 = /dev/ttyVR1 NEC VR4100 series DSIU
Less serious:
Major 78 and major 112 claim the same name.
Some names, like "/dev/iseries/vtty%d", are too damn big. Keeping things to "/dev/tty?????" would be appreciated.
Last I checked, ttyD%d didn't match the code. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
