Hi
I'm looking for a simple and nice sample for writing a device driver in SCO OpenServer 5.0.7. I'm asked to write a device driver for some usb printer. I have already the linux version of the driver but it won't get compiled. I have some basic knowledge of device drivers phenomena such as kernel... (4 Replies)

vmsock
VMSOCK(9) Open VM Tools VMSOCK(9)NAME
vmsock - vmware kernel module
SYNOPSIS
modprobe vmsock
DESCRIPTION
This is a Linux kernel device driver module that provides datagram and stream socket interfaces to the underlying VMCI device. The module
implements a Linux socket family and one of the files in the module, vmci_sockets.h, provides the various constants and functions necessary
to create and, in the case of streams, connect sockets.
When the module is loaded, /dev/vsock will be created with restricted permissions. Access to /dev/vsock is required to use VMCI sockets, so
it's recommended that permissions be relaxed via a udev policy file. For reference, the VMware Tools init script changes the permissions of
/dev/vsock to 666.
Normally, issuing a socket(2) system call will automatically load the kernel module providing that socket family, but as the vsock module
is out-of-tree, there is no in-tree socket family reservation for VMCI sockets. Before sockets are created, userspace applications must
call VMCISock_GetAFValue (defined in vmci_sockets.h) which will instruct the vsock module to dynamically acquire a socket family reserva-
tion from the kernel. This function is implemented via ioctl(2) into the vsock module, so the vsock module must be manually loaded by the
user (perhaps using /etc/modules).
The vmci_sockets.h header should be installed in a system-wide location. We recommend /usr/include/vmci.
The vsock module depends on symbols from the vmci module, and so the vmci module must be loaded first.
OPTIONS
vmsock has no options.
