Where can I get an example on how to do this (kernel driver & IRQ)?
Also do I need to build the while kernel, or can I just compile a module
which can be loaded.
I suppose I can create a special device which I can talk to (write configs
into it and get my data out of it). Also I want the kernel to write its
data into files, but that should be feasible!?
