[fuse-devel] emulate a char device

[Brooke W. <bro...@ya...>]

Hi,

I'm looking at FUSE to emulate a char device. I don't need IOCL's, INT's or mmap so I think all the functionality I need is there - my only reservation is that FUSE seems to be more focused on File systems rather than devices. I was told about CUSE, but I couldn't find much and fuse seems to be built in and ready in my kernel (makes a big difference) as well as having a simple hello world app which I was able to get working with little effort.

Am I going down the right path, or are there better options I should be looking at?
