添加了头文件<linux/cdev.h>,

程序中调用的宏：STATIC_DEVNR ，MINORMASK

手动注册字符设备：

status = register_chrdev_region(dev_nr, MINORMASK + 1, "hello_cdev");

register_chrdev_region 需要配置主/副设备号,这里用的 STATIC_DEVNR ,MINORMASK+1 来注册字符设备 hello_cdev

动态注册字符设备：

status = alloc_chrdev_region(&dev_nr, 0, MINORMASK + 1, "hello_cdev");

不需要手动配置，自动配置字符设备 hello_cdev

创建并添加字符设备：

cdev_init(&my_cdev, &fops);

&my_cdev 指向全局变量里这个指针，fops就将字符设备和读写操作结合起来

全局变量my_cdev 的所有者是这个模块，这样就将hello_cdev 接上了

my_cdev.owner = THIS_MODULE;

这样系统内核就添加字符设备，在 /proc/dev/中可以看到字符设备 hello_cdev,主设备号是dev_nr

status = cdev_add(&my_cdev, dev_nr, MINORMASK + 1);

不过这节系统内核添加hello_cdev这个设备驱动之后还是要mknod 创建字符设备 mknod /dev/hello0 c 236 0
