Main reason for the development of a driver for the device is interrupt handling and signal sending to user space processes by the custom device in short time frames (within miliseconds), e.g. proper and fast respond is crutial. But for now I don't know how to do a simple read/write... I'm using MVME6100 with ELinOS-based distro, kernel 2.6.15.
