mknod - Create the special file NAME of the given TYPE.

Description

       Create the special file NAME of the given TYPE.

Extra

       Mandatory  arguments  to  long  options are mandatory for short options too.  -m, --mode=MODE    set file
       permission bits to MODE, not a=rw - umask

       Both MAJOR and MINOR must be specified when TYPE is b, c, or u, and they must be omitted when TYPE is  p.
       If MAJOR or MINOR begins with 0x or 0X, it is interpreted as hexadecimal; otherwise, if it begins with 0,
       as octal; otherwise, as decimal.  TYPE may be:

       * b      create a block (buffered) special file * c, u   create a character (unbuffered) special file * p
       create a FIFO

       NOTE:  your shell may have its own version of mknod, which usually supersedes the version described here.
       Please refer to your shell's documentation for details about the options it supports.
