ioctl4bash: ioctl() for bash and/or shell-scripts

Simple wrapper-program which makes it possible to perform the C-function ioctl() via bash

A helpful tool e.g. in the developing of linux device-drivers and so on...

Compiling:

Type

make all

for native compiling or

make all CC=/path/to/my/cross-compiler/cross-compiler-prefix-gcc

for cross compiling.

Note

If you use a SDK generated by Yocto, so you need perhaps additional parameters. E.g.:

CC="/opt/poky/2.4.2/sysroots/x86_64-pokysdk-linux/usr/bin/arm-poky-linux-gnueabi/arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-gcc --sysroot /opt/poky/2.4.2/sysroots/cortexa8hf-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi -march=armv7-a -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=hard -mcpu=cortex-a8"
make all

Or you can also accomplish this using a environment setup script if present. E.g.:

. /opt/poky/2.4.2/environment-setup-cortexa8hf-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi
make all

This program requires two additional source files (parse_opts.h and parse_opts.c) which can be found in the repository: Command line option parser If "make" doesn't found these both files - or corresponding symbolic links - in the actual directory, so "make" will accomplish this automatically by download this files by "wget".

Type

ioctl -h

for more information.

Note

Program isn't yet completely tested, but for my purposes it's enough. :-)
