这是一个简单的输入设备驱动实例。这个输入设备只有一个按键，按键被连接到一条中断线上，当按键被按下时，将产生一个中断，内核将检测到这个中断，并对其进行处理。该实例的代码如下：

131: 132: 133: 134: 135: 136: 当编译进内核烧写板子后可以看到相应的设备文件：
root@CarRadio:/sys/devices# ls virtual/input/input2/
capabilities id name power subsystem uniq
event2 modalias phys properties uevent
root@CarRadio:/sys/devices# cat virtual/input/input2/name
key_gpio
root@CarRadio:/sys/devices#
这样就可以监控event2来捕捉按键
root@CarRadio:/# ls dev/input/event2
dev/input/event2
root@CarRadio:/#
驱动分析：
1.申请gpio
gpio_request(gpio_key, "test_key");
2.设置为gpio输入模式
gpio_direction_input(gpio_key);
3.申请gpio中断号，注册中断
//申请gpio中断号 g_irq = (irq = gpio_to_irq(gpio_key));
/* 申请中断 */
request_irq(irq, button_interrupt, irqflags, DEV_NAME, NULL);
4.分配input_dev设备
/*分配input_dev */
button_dev = input_allocate_device();
5.把输入设备注册进核心层
input_register_device(button_dev);
