|
|
Register and Lookup Name
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
The ``rtems_io_register`` directive associates a name with the specified device
|
|
(i.e. major/minor number pair). Device names are typically registered as part
|
|
of the device driver initialization sequence. The ``rtems_io_lookup``
|
|
directive is used to determine the major/minor number pair associated with the
|
|
specified device name. The use of these directives frees the application from
|
|
being dependent on the arbitrary assignment of major numbers in a particular
|
|
application. No device naming conventions are dictated by RTEMS.
|
|
|
|
Accessing an Device Driver
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
The I/O manager provides directives which enable the application program to
|
|
utilize device drivers in a standard manner. There is a direct correlation
|
|
between the RTEMS I/O manager directives ``rtems_io_initialize``,
|
|
``rtems_io_open``, ``rtems_io_close``, ``rtems_io_read``, ``rtems_io_write``,
|
|
and ``rtems_io_control`` and the underlying device driver entry points.
