Hi,
I want to run a program when DP monitor is plugged in/out.
My linux kernel ( 3.14.0-00348-gbfcbf45) gets an interrupt when DP cable is
removed or inserted.
>From the graphics driver interrupt handler I can differentiate the two
events.
I want to run a user space program when this removal/insertion happens.
What are the possible
ways to achieve this?
when I google for this I am seeing examples related to udev(How to run a
script when a usb device is inserted/removed); but in my case it is not
device insertion/removal. There is no need for a device creation when the
DP monitor is plugged in/out(There is no device node available for me).
Basically I want to send this removal/insertion event from my kernel
interrupt handler to
user space program.
Regards,
Arun C
