Devfs does not depend on major and minor number - allocations. Device drivers register entries in /dev which then - appear automatically, which means that the system administrator does - not have to create character and block special device files in the - /dev directory using the mknod command (or MAKEDEV script) anymore. - - This is work in progress. If you want to use this, you *must* read - the material in <file:Documentation/filesystems/devfs/>, especially - the file README there. - - Note that devfs no longer manages /dev/pts! If you are using UNIX98 - ptys, you will also need to mount the /dev/pts filesystem (devpts). - - Note that devfs has been obsoleted by udev, - <http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/>. - It has been stripped down to a bare minimum and is only provided for - legacy installations that use its naming scheme which is - unfortunately different from the names normal Linux installations - use. - - If unsure, say N. - -config DEVFS_MOUNT - bool "Automatically mount at boot" - depends on DEVFS_FS - help - This option appears if you have CONFIG_DEVFS_FS enabled. Setting - this to 'Y' will make the kernel automatically mount devfs onto /dev - when the system is booted, before the init thread is started. - You can override this with the "devfs=nomount" boot option. - - If unsure, say N. - -config DEVFS_DEBUG - bool "Debug devfs" - depends on DEVFS_FS - help - If you say Y here, then the /dev file system code will generate - debugging messages.
