Subject: serial device name for smart card reader that is integrated to Anysee DVB USB device
Date: Wed, 05 Oct 2011 00:22:09 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4E8B7901.2050700@iki.fi> (raw)
I have been looking for correct device name for serial smart card reader
that is integrated to Anysee DVB USB devices. Consider it like old so
called Phoenix reader. Phoenix is de facto protocol used for such
readers and there is whole bunch of different RS232 (/dev/ttyS#) or
USB-serial (/dev/ttyUSB#) readers using that protocol.
Anyhow, that one is integrated to DVB USB device that is driven by
dvb_usb_anysee driver. As I understand, I need reserve new device name
and major number for my device. See Documentation/devices.txt
Current proof-of-concept driver can be found from:
http://git.linuxtv.org/anttip/media_tree.git/shortlog/refs/heads/anysee-sc
Don't review code since it is not ready for release yet, it even lacks
locking.
There have been some proposes about names, mainly whether to register it
under the DVB adapter it is physically (/dev/dvb/adapterN/sc#) or to the
root of /dev (/dev/sc#). I used sc as name, SC=SmartCard.
Could someone who have enough knowledge point out which one is correct
or better?
regards
Antti
