Complete Template Driver Source

The following code is the complete source for the dummy driver described in this chapter:

/*
 * Minimalist pseudo-device.
 * Writes a message whenever a routine is entered.
 *
 * Build the driver:
 *      cc -D_KERNEL -c dummy.c
 *      ld -r -o dummy dummy.o
 * Copy the driver and the configuration file to /usr/kernel/drv:
 *      cp dummy.conf /usr/kernel/drv
 *      cp dummy /tmp
 *      ln -s /tmp/dummy /usr/kernel/drv/dummy
 * Add the driver:
 *      add_drv dummy
 * Test (1) read from driver (2) write to driver:
 *      cat /devices/pseudo/dummy@*
 *      echo hello > `ls /devices/pseudo/dummy@*`
 * Verify the tests in another window:
 *      tail -f /var/adm/messages
 * Remove the driver:
 *      rem_drv dummy
