Message-ID: <3baf3d760809170955l5dec0495n93fc373a52a120ae@mail.gmail.com> Date: Wed, 17 Sep 2008 22:25:35 +0530 From: "Singaravelan Nallasellan" <singaravelann@...il.com> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: New IOCTLs I need to send device control messages to the driver. I am planning to use the IOCTLs. But I came to know that Linux community does not accept any new IOCTLs anymore. Can somebody provide the reason behind the decision? Are there any better approach to implement the device control interface other than sysfs interface. I have some issues in using the sysfs interface.
