The code is GPLed but not currently available on the net. It is basically a little driver that registers a character device and then passes out the minor numbers to the PIKA board drivers. It was written to isolate all the character/sysfs code to one place since we have five drivers, and many debug drivers, that use it. If anybody is really interested, I can post it here. I doubt it will ever be submitted to the mainline kernel however.
