Here's how scullpipe implements the fasync method: int scull_p_fasync(fasync_file fd, struct file *filp, int mode) { Scull_Pipe *dev = filp-private_data; return fasync_helper(fd, filp, mode, dev-async_queue); } It's clear that all the work is performed by fasync_helper. root@beaglebone:~# uname -a Linux beaglebone g9bdbdirty #67 SMP Sat Apr 18 armv7l GNU/Linux I want to add fasync function to my kernel module, but it doesn't work well. Below code is from internet and I modified it (try to add fasync). It can run on Beagle Bone Black. I simplify write(), read() and poll Reviews: 1. If not implemented in the driver, the system call returns -EINVAL. int (*fasync) (int, struct file *, int); This operation is used to notify the device of a change in its FASYNC flag. Asynchronous notification is an advanced topic and is described in Chapter 5. The field can be NULL if the driver doesn’t support asynchronous notification.

linux-usbtmc driver. This is an experimental linux driver for usb test measurement control instruments. It adds support for missing functions in USBTMC-USB spec, the ability to handle SRQ notifications with fasync or poll/select and a number of features required to support the IVI library. This package is provided for folks wanting to test or use driver features not yet supported by the standard usbtmc driver in their kernel. I am trying similar thing here. trying to call a kill_fasync from an interrupt context, in order to wake up a user land application at interrupt. It works without an problem at first kenel module run. But when I reload my kernel module, the SIGIOs from kill_fasync are never reported to user space. But this is only happening with ISR. fcntl (sg_fd, F_SETFL, oflags | FASYNC) fcntl (int sg_fd, int cmd, long arg). There are several uses for this system call in association with a sg file descriptor. The following pseudo code shows code that is useful for scanning the sg devices, taking care not to be caught in a wait for an O_EXCL lock by another process, and when the.

The Linux kernel as of version provides a more flexible system called When F_SETFL is executed to turn on FASYNC, the driver's fasyncmethod is. the drivers fasync() method is called to notify the driver. (we include fasync in the file_operations structure). #include. When F_SETFL is executed to turn on FASYNC, the driver's fasync method is called. This method is called whenever the value of FASYNC is changed in.
