Hi all,

I am new to this concept of line disciplines. I wanted to perform
data transfer thru serial ports after performing some processing
on raw data.For this I have written a program which has routines
for the linedisc entry points.

Now I want the existing char driver(/usr/src/linux/drivers/
char/serial.c)to use my linedisc routines.

when I went thru the source code I found that the calls to the disc
routines from serial.c are done in tty_io.c
(/usr/src/linux/drivers/char/tty_io.c).

Now the problem is how do I tell the tty_io.c to access my disc
routines?

Is it possible to register my linedisc without making it a network
interface/driver?

Could u please tell me the sequence of steps needed to solve my
problem.If not could u please suggest some sources where I can
reach out for help.

Thanx in advance
regards
HVC
