Yes, I have d_mmap in cdevsw, as per below:
static struct cdevsw foo_cdevsw = {
.d_open = foo_open,
.d_close = foo_close,
.d_read = foo_read,
.d_write = foo_write,
.d_mmap = foo_mmap,
.d_strategy = NULL,
.d_dump = NULL,
.d_version = D_VERSION,
.d_flags = D_NEEDGIANT,
.d_name = "foo"
};
I do have debugging statements inside each function, so I can see from
dmesg what is happening, or atleast, get a better idea. I use this for
debugging:
DPRINTF("foo mmap!\n");
The above is inside each function, with it defined as
#define DPRINTF(format, args...) printf(format , ## args);
Since my driver is only in its absolutly early stages of development, it
very closely resembles the driver given in the url in my first email,
the only changes are some additional debugging out and my function
definitions.
I could post those if you think it could help.
