I'm looking for some information too.
Seeing that devfs is obsolent I would have to port a module that implements a "Utime Calibration" (taken from the Kansas University Real Time patch) from the 2.4.18 to the 2.6.8/9 kernel.
Not using devfs any more in the 2.6 kernel the devfs_[register/unregister]_chrev functions are useless.

I'm a n00b and am trying hard to learn.

Thanks for any response.
