Hi Everybody,

I have a question, on using the available i2c-gpio driver in linux kernel.
If I do a lsmod I can see the loaded driver, but can't see any relevant devie nod in /dev directory.It has been registered as platform driver.

How can I access this driver from user space.?
If I need to create a /dev node, then how can I get the major no.?

I am attaching the driver for your review.

Any help will be appreciated.

Many thanks, betz
