cp210x-arch

This repo contains the CP210x USB to UART driver source as downloaded from SiLabs, modified for building on Arch Linux.

Building/installation steps:

# Install packages as necessary
$ sudo pacman -S base-devel linux-headers

# Build driver
$ make

# Install driver
$ sudo cp cp210x.ko /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/usb/serial
$ sudo insmod cp210x.ko

List of modifications

  • Updated Makefile to reference /usr/lib/src as the kernel source directory
  • Updated cp210x.c, changing the return type of cp210x_port_remove from int to void.

As of Linux commit c5d1448, struct usb_serial_driver in <linux/usb/serial.h> expects the callback for the remove event to have a void return type.
