User Application可以透過檔案操作方式跟驅動程式溝通，在Linux Kernel中，將檔案分成字元驅動程式(Char)和區塊驅動程式(Block)兩大類，主要區別在於傳輸方式，可以把字元驅動程式想像成每次傳輸都是以1個Byte為單位，而區塊驅動程式則是多個Bytes為單位，如：512 Bytes，User Application可以透過open()、read()、write()、ioctl()、close()跟字元驅動程式溝通，那User Application怎麼知道路徑在哪呢？答案是Symbolic Link(/dev/xxx)，那Symbolic Link又如何連結到字元驅動程式呢？答案是Major、Minor號碼，Major、Minor號碼是驅動程式的裝置索引，字元驅動程式在被系統載入時，會註冊Major和Minor號碼，使用者可以透過mknod工具，去建立一個Symbolic Link(名稱可以由使用者隨意取)並且綁定到字元驅動程式的這個Major、Minor號碼，完成連接的管道

字元驅動程式建立步驟：
1. alloc_chrdev_region()
2. cdev_init()
3. cdev_add()
4. cdev_del()
5. unregister_chrdev_region()

init_module: 建立字元驅動程式
myopen: 對應User Application的open()
myclose: 對應User Application的close()
cleanup_module: 刪除字元驅動程式

alloc_chrdev_region()可以取得空閒的裝置號碼，如果想要自訂Major號碼，可以使用register_chrdev_region()

安裝驅動

# insmod /boot/main.ko 
    major:243, minor:0

P.S. Linux驅動程式使用Major、Minor號碼當作裝置索引

make node

# mknod /dev/myfile c 243 0
# ls -al /dev/myfile
    crw-r--r--    1 root     root      243,   0 Jan  1 00:00 /dev/myfile

P.S. 建立Symbolic符號，供User Application開啟使用

開啟裝置

# echo "" > /dev/myfile
    myopen
    sh: write error: Invalid argument myclose
