It may be possible that this question is very old:
I read the 2.0 proc_xxxx routines and I wonder that there are no
registry routines for Dynamic Device Inodes in say /proc/dev.
It would be nice if any dynamically linked module could have its
own dynamically allocated inode, since the registry in the proc filesystem
could be done without occupying Major numbers.
If anyone has done this already, please let me know or send me a few
pointers...
cheers
