Hello,
I get strange results when trying to create device files with this program:
#include <sys/stat.h>
int main (void)
{
int major, minor;
dev_t dev;
major = 5;
minor = 1;
dev = (major << 8) | minor;
mknod ("test", S_IFCHR | 0666, dev);
return 0;
}
After running it, I get:
# ls -al test
crw-rw-rw- 1 NBoudin mkgroup-l-d 0, 1281 Jun 21 10:44 test
However, with "mknod test2 c 5 1":
crw-rw-rw- 1 NBoudin mkgroup-l-d 5, 1 Jun 21 10:44 test2
Why do I get this result?
Bye,
Nicolas
