$ ls -l /sys/class/video4linux/video0
r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Nov 21 16:36 dev
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Nov 21 16:36 device -> ../../../devices/pci0001:10/0001:10:1b.1/usb3/3-1/
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Nov 21 16:36 driver -> ../../../bus/usb/drivers/usb/
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Nov 21 16:36 name
