I was looking through the code of some device drivers, more specific the
rtl8139 driver and the fb_console drivers. They both register their
device-nodes with 'devfs_publish_device' and both pass a struct with
'hooks' but in the 'open' hook the rtl8139 driver has TWO parameters:
static int rtl8139_open(dev_ident ident, dev_cookie *cookie)
whereas the fb_console driver has three ...
static int console_open(const char *name, uint32 flags, void **cookie)
in 'devfs.c' they all get three parameters!
does anyone know how that is supposed to work ?? don't drivers-hooks have
to have all the same parameters ?? wouldn't they mess up their stack real
fast when they don't ??
Eike.
