(In reply to comment #12) When I initially put in the request I felt it was a trivial addition to Wine and could bee no good reason what it would be rejected and I still feel thi is the case. Feel free to submit a patch to wine-patches and ask for feedback on wine-devel if it's not accepted.
I would do this if I was confident I could do this for all Wine hosts, but as been pointed out there are lots of varations in mknod. Given I have only been using Wine for a couple of weeks and have never generated a patch I suspect doing this would currently be tricky for me. On Real Windows I read the MSRs in my kernel mode driver, but on Wine this driver gets run in User Mode. The is the problem I am working around. Were Wine to run my driver in Kernel Mode then I would not need to use mknod() at all, so I have logged http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20098. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
