* linux/drivers/char/misc.c

*
5
* Generic misc open routine by Johan Myreen
6
*
7
* Based on code from Linus
8
*
9
* Teemu Rantanen's Microsoft Busmouse support and Derrick Cole's
10
* changes incorporated into 0.97pl4
11
* by Peter Cervasio (pete%[email protected]) (08SEP92)
12
* See busmouse.c for particulars.
13
*
14
* Made things a lot mode modular - easy to compile in just one or two
15
* of the misc drivers, as they are now completely independent. Linus.
16
*
17
* Support for loadable modules. 8-Sep-95 Philip Blundell <[email protected]>
18
*
19
* Fixed a failing symbol register to free the device registration
20
* Alan Cox <[email protected]> 21-Jan-96
21
*
22
* Dynamic minors and /proc/mice by Alessandro Rubini. 26-Mar-96
23
*
24
* Renamed to misc and miscdevice to be more accurate. Alan Cox 26-Mar-96
25
*
26
* Handling of mouse minor numbers for kerneld:
27
* Idea by Jacques Gelinas <[email protected]>,
28
* adapted by Bjorn Ekwall <[email protected]>
29
* corrected by Alan Cox <[email protected]>
30
*
31
* Changes for kmod (from kerneld):
32
* Cyrus Durgin <[email protected]>
33
*
34
* Added devfs support. Richard Gooch <[email protected]> 10-Jan-1998
