Maybe you have seen something called an interrupt as you work on your computer. These Interrupt Requests come from processes or devices that want to use resources. It's all very orderly.

What are the advantages of using the same system-call interface for manipulating both files and devices?

Each device can be accessed as though it was a file in the file system. Since most of the kernel deals with devices through this file interface, it is relatively easy to add a new device driver by implementing the hardware-specific code to support this abstract file interface. Therefore, this benefits the development of both user program code, which can bewritten to access devices and files in the samemanner, and device driver code, which can be written to support a well-defined API. The disadvantage with using the same interface is that it might be difficult to capture the functionality of certain devices within the context of the file access API, thereby either resulting in a loss of functionality or a loss of performance. Some of this could be overcome by the use of ioctl operation that provides a general purpose interface for processes to invoke operations on devices.
