| Summary : sysfsutils, library interface to sysfs.
|
Description :
This package\'s purpose is to provide a set of utilities for interfacing
with sysfs, a virtual filesystem in Linux kernel versions 2.5+ that
provides a tree of system devices. While a filesystem is a very useful
interface, we\'ve decided to provide a stable programming interface
that will hopefully make it easier for applications to query system devices
and their attributes.
This package currently includes:
- libsysfs: a library for accessing system devices.
- systool: an application to view system device information by bus, class,
and topology.
- A number of \"test\" programs demonstrating API usage.
- A comprehensive testsuite - please use the source tarball and modify the
libsysfs.conf file to appropriate values to use the testsuite. The
testlibsysfs binary may not run without changes to the config file.
The library is distributed under LGPL and utilities that come with it are
under GPL.
