This list is the successor to Rick Miller's Linux Device List, which
|
50 |
|
|
he stopped maintaining when he got busy with other things in 1993. It
|
51 |
|
|
is a registry of allocated major device numbers, as well as the
|
52 |
|
|
recommended {\file /dev} directory nodes for these devices.
|
53 |
|
|
|
54 |
|
|
The latest version of this list is included with the Linux kernel
|
55 |
|
|
sources in \LaTeX\ and ASCII form. In case of discrepancy, the
|
56 |
|
|
\LaTeX\ version is authoritative.
|
57 |
|
|
|
58 |
|
|
This document is included by reference into the Linux Filesystem
|
59 |
|
|
Standard (FSSTND). The FSSTND is available via FTP from
|
60 |
|
|
tsx-11.mit.edu in the directory {\file
|
61 |
|
|
/pub/linux/docs/linux-standards/fsstnd}.
|
62 |
|
|
|
63 |
|
|
To have a major number allocated, or a minor number in situations
|
64 |
|
|
where that applies (e.g.\ busmice), please contact me with the
|
65 |
|
|
appropriate device information. Also, if you have additional
|
66 |
|
|
information regarding any of the devices listed below, or if I have
|
67 |
|
|
made a mistake, I would greatly appreciate a note. When sending me
|
68 |
|
|
mail, please include the word ``device'' in the subject so your mail
|
69 |
|
|
won't accidentally get buried!
|

|
|
|

|
|
Allocations marked (68k/Amiga) apply to Linux/68k on the Amiga
|
72 |
|
|
platform only. Allocations marked (68k/Atari) apply to Linux/68k on
|
73 |
|
|
the Atari platform only.

This document is in the public domain. The author requests, however,
|
76 |
|
|
that semantically altered versions are not distributed without

77 |
|
|
permission of the author, assuming the author can be contacted without
|
78 |
|
|
an unreasonable effort.
|
79 |
|
|
|
80 |
|
|
In particular, please don't sent patches for this list to Linus, at
|
81 |
|
|
least not without contacting me first.
|
82 |
|
|
|
83 |
|
|
I do not have any information about these devices beyond what appears
|
84 |
|
|
on this list. Any such information requests will be deleted without
|
85 |
|

reply.

The universal frame buffer device is currently supported only on
|
779 |
|
|
Linux/68k and Linux/SPARC. The plain device accesses the frame
|
780 |
|
|
buffer at current resolution (Linux/68k calls this file {\file
|
781 |
|
|
current}, e.g. {\file /dev/fb0current}); the {\file autodetect} one at
|
782 |
|
|
bootup (default) resolution. Minor numbers 2--23 within each frame
|
783 |
|
|
buffer assignment are used for specific device-dependent resolutions.
|
784 |
|
|
There appears to be no standard naming for these devices. Finally,
|
785 |
|
|
24--31 within each device are reserved for user-selected modes,
|
786 |
|
|

\section{Additional /dev directory entries}
|
1151 |
|
|
|
1152 |
|
|
This section details additional entries that should or may exist in the
|
1153 |
|
|
{\file /dev} directory. It is preferred that symbolic links use the
|
1154 |
|
|
same form (absolute or relative) as is indicated here. Links are
|
1155 |
|
|
classified as {\em hard\/} or {\em symbolic\/} depending on the
|
1156 |
|
|
preferred type of link; if possible, the indicated type of link should
|
1157 |
|
|
be used.
|
1158 |
|
|
|
1159 |
|
|
\subsection{Compulsory links}
|
1160 |
|
|
|
1161 |
|
|
These links should exist on all systems:
|
1162 |
|
|
|
1163 |
|
|
\begin{nodelist}
|
1164 |
|
|
\link{/dev/fd}{/proc/self/fd}{symbolic}{File descriptors}
|
1165 |
|
|
\link{/dev/stdin}{fd/0}{symbolic}{Standard input file descriptor}
|
1166 |
|
|
\link{/dev/stdout}{fd/1}{symbolic}{Standard output file descriptor}
|
1167 |
|
|
\link{/dev/stderr}{fd/2}{symbolic}{Standard error file descriptor}
|
1168 |
|
|
\link{/dev/nfsd}{socksys}{symbolic}{Required by iBCS-2}
|
1169 |
|
|
\link{/dev/X0R}{null}{symbolic}{Required by iBCS-2}
|
1170 |
|
|
\end{nodelist}
|
1171 |
|
|
|
1172 |
|
|
\noindent
|
1173 |
|
|
Note: The last device is: $<$letter {\tt X}$>$-$<$digit {\tt
|
1174 |
|
|
0}$>$-$<$letter {\tt R}$>$.
|
1175 |
|
|
|
1176 |
|
|
\subsection{Recommended links}
|
1177 |
|
|
|
1178 |
|
|
It is recommended that these links exist on all systems:
|
1179 |
|
|
|
1180 |
|
|
\begin{nodelist}
|
1181 |
|
|
\link{/dev/core}{/proc/kcore}{symbolic}{Backward compatibility}
|
1182 |
|
|
\link{/dev/ramdisk}{ram0}{symbolic}{Backward compatibility}
|
1183 |
|
|
\link{/dev/ftape}{rft0}{symbolic}{Backward compatibility}
|
1184 |
|
|
\link{/dev/scd?}{sr?}{hard}{Alternate name for CD-ROMs}
|
1185 |
|
|
%\link{/dev/fd?H*}{fd?D*}{hard}{Compatible floppy formats}
|
1186 |
|
|
%\link{/dev/fd?E*}{fd?D*}{hard}{Compatible floppy formats}
|
1187 |
|
|
%\link{/dev/fd?E*}{fd?H*}{hard}{Compatible floppy formats}
|
1188 |
|
|
\end{nodelist}
|
1189 |
|
|
|
1190 |
|
|
\subsection{Locally defined links}
|
1191 |
|
|
|
1192 |
|
|
The following links may be established locally to conform to the
|
1193 |
|
|
configuration of the system. This is merely a tabulation of existing
|
1194 |
|
|
practice, and does not constitute a recommendation. However, if they
|
1195 |
|
|
exist, they should have the following uses.
|
1196 |
|
|
|
1197 |
|
|
\begin{nodelist}
|
1198 |
|
|
\vlink{/dev/mouse}{mouse port}{symbolic}{Current mouse device}
|
1199 |
|
|
\vlink{/dev/tape}{tape device}{symbolic}{Current tape device}
|
1200 |
|
|
\vlink{/dev/cdrom}{CD-ROM device}{symbolic}{Current CD-ROM device}
|
1201 |
|
|
\vlink{/dev/cdwriter}{CD-writer}{symbolic}{Current CD-writer device}
|
1202 |
|
|
\vlink{/dev/scanner}{scanner device}{symbolic}{Current scanner device}
|
1203 |
|
|
\vlink{/dev/modem}{modem port}{symbolic}{Current dialout device}
|
1204 |
|
|
\vlink{/dev/root}{root device}{symbolic}{Current root filesystem}
|
1205 |
|
|
\vlink{/dev/swap}{swap device}{symbolic}{Current swap device}
|
1206 |
|
|
\end{nodelist}
|
1207 |
|
|
|
1208 |
|
|
\noindent
|
1209 |
|
|
{\file /dev/modem} should not be used for a modem which supports
|
1210 |
|
|
dialin as well as dialout, as it tends to cause lock file problems.
|
1211 |
|
|
If it exists, {\file /dev/modem} should point to the appropriate
|
1212 |
|
|
dialout (alternate) device.
|
1213 |
|
|
|
1214 |
|
|
For SCSI devices, {\file /dev/tape} and {\file /dev/cdrom} should
|
1215 |
|
|
point to the ``cooked'' devices ({\file /dev/st*} and {\file
|
1216 |
|
|
/dev/sr*}, respectively), whereas {\file /dev/cdwriter} and {\file
|
1217 |
|
|
/dev/scanner} should point to the appropriate generic SCSI devices
|
1218 |
|
|
({\file /dev/sg*}.)
|
1219 |
|
|
|
1220 |
|
|
{\file /dev/mouse} may point to a primary serial TTY device, a
|
1221 |
|
|
hardware mouse device, or a socket for a mouse driver program
|
1222 |
|
|
(e.g. {\file /dev/gpmdata}.)
|
1223 |
|
|
|
1224 |
|
|
\subsection{Sockets and pipes}
|
1225 |
|
|
|
1226 |
|
|
Non-transient sockets or named pipes may exist in {\file /dev}.
|
1227 |
|
|
Common entries are:
|
1228 |
|
|
|
1229 |
|
|
\begin{nodelist}
|
1230 |
|
|
\node{/dev/printer}{socket}{{\file lpd} local socket}
|
1231 |
|
|
\node{/dev/log}{socket}{{\file syslog} local socket}
|
1232 |
|
|
\node{/dev/gpmdata}{socket}{{\file gpm} mouse multiplexer}
|
1233 |
|
|
\end{nodelist}
