Hello,

I was wondering if the /dev/rfcommX device nodes are handled directly  
by the kernel module (bluez) itself or by a userspace program?

(its not possible for anything userspace to put something in /dev is  
it?)


thanks
David

they are handled direct by the kernel.

Not without kernel help. Even PTYs are done with kernel help.
