Subject: missing sysfs device symlink for platform devices
Date: Sat, 11 Mar 2006 01:34:28 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060311003428.GA17309@suse.de> (raw)
Why is the /sys/class/net/eth0/device symlink not created for the
mv643xx_eth driver? Does this work for other platform device drivers?
Seems to work for the ps2 keyboard at least.
/sys/class/input/input1/device -> ../../../devices/platform/i8042/serio1
