How can I write to TTY from a kernel module?
use tty = get_current_tty();
instead of tty = current->signal->tty;
that's it
you need to lock the tty before accessing it and get_current_tty
does it internally
NOTE: get_current_tty
is under EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL
, hence your module or code
How to write to a tty from kernel space with only major and minor device numbers available?
You don't do this by passing major/minor numbers to your syscall.
Instead, have the userspace side open the tty it wants then pass the resulting file descriptor to your syscall. You then use the sequence { fget(); kernel_write(); fput(); }
to write to the supplied file descriptor.

Custom char device linux module under stock major (like tty)
If you want your device to be exposed as a TTY, implement it as a serial driver, similar to other devices in drivers/tty/serial
. The kernel will apply the TTY layer to it, and it will show up as a TTY.
