Subject: Re: [PATCH] added sysdev attribute to sysdev show/store methods - for linux-2.6.13.4
Date: Thu, 20 Oct 2005 15:03:30 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4a45da430510201503v74874acoca37bba3aa5a2d07@mail.google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <d120d5000510201459y25a2c8e5v55bf830c445c9dbf@mail.gmail.com>

Surely, the organization of sysfs is logical (by grouping relating
things) rather than functional (by grouping things that need common
back-end interfaces).

Er .. no?

In general, where can I find guidance on where to put things within
sysfs?  Has anybody written some kind of Plan?
