I'd like to have something like the Registry on WinNT (only faster); a tree structure with settings that are getable and setable from both user and kernelspace at any given time. OK, maybe I'm asking for a bit much here but our driver depends on information to be read or written at any time since our USB driver will not be loaded at boot-time. -----Original Message----- From: Shawn Erickson [mailto:shawn@freetimesw.com] Sent: den 7 maj 2002 17:11 To: darwin-kernel@lists.apple.com Cc: Torsten Gatu; Frode Isaksen Subject: Re: Getting prefs to my driver (was: reading a file from kernel) FYI... I was going to work on a generic framework for this as a project under OpenDarwin. I don't think it will be ready in the next couple of months but some day soon... Let me know of your requirements for such a beast (I have similar needs in drivers that I am writing but not on a per users basis). The following is from a project idea listing I sent to OpenDarwin hackers list... - Driver configuration information framework Provides a framework for the setting, getting and persistent storing of driver configuration information. The main setters would come from user mode applications/preference panels/installers and the getters would be in kernel component/drivers. A main requirement is the ability to get config information to drivers at boot time. Secondary requirements are the ability to store per user config information for those drivers that change depending on logged in user. Currently every driver vendor that needs driver configuration information has to implement their own method. This project would attempt to provide a standardized and tested way of doing what is needed. _______________________________________________ darwin-kernel mailing list | darwin-kernel@lists.apple.com Help/Unsubscribe/Archives: http://www.lists.apple.com/mailman/listinfo/darwin-kernel Do not post admin requests to the list.
