ioctl to keyboard device file.

hai,

I want to add a new ioctl to keyboard driver device file which will perform the work of copying user space data sent to it into kernel space and send those characters to handle_scancode function of keyboard driver.. Now I want to know

1) what is the device file corresponding to keyboard (is it /dev/input/keyboard).

2) where file operations structure is defined for that.
3) where the those ioctls handled(not found in keyboard.c).

Any small help is appreciated.


  Thanks&Regards,
  P.Manohar,
