device drivers

[Hemanshu Kanji Bhadra, Noida (hemanshub@noida.hcltech.com)]

Hello All,

is there any difference if i write kernel module device drivers using
proc_fs in /proc and in a traditional way in /dev directory.

I mean from the application point of view is there any difference when
application tries to access the device using the device driver residing in
/proc directory and not in /dev.


With Thanks,
-Hemanshu
