From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Otherwise I have to write one myself. In which case anybody have a good guide on writing Linux kernel drivers in rust? Maybe specifically catered towards controllers

Otherwise I guess I can get chat gpt to do it

The thing has three ‘modes’ Pc,ps4, and ps5. But just connecting it to Pc doesn’t work

Asking ChatGPT to write a kernel module would be hilarious. I'd love to see what would happen with your kernel from a safe distance.

That being said, it's a usb controller, right? Chance that you don't need new kernel module for it and you'll just need to define a button mapping.
