Subject: [09/20] USB: update documentation for usbmon
Date: Tue, 10 Jan 2012 12:07:00 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120110200850.560644013@clark.kroah.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120110200902.GA5674@kroah.com>

2.6.32-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu>

commit d8cae98cddd286e38db1724dda1b0e7b467f9237 upstream.

The documentation for usbmon is out of date; the usbfs "devices" file
now exists in /sys/kernel/debug/usb rather than /proc/bus/usb.  This
patch (as1505) updates the documentation accordingly, and also
mentions that the necessary information can be found by running lsusb.
