Message-Id: List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: linux-hotplug@vger.kernel.org Hi, oh, shiny new device files. but why? /proc/bus/usb/00X/00Y works fine for me. why the changes? will usbfs alias /proc/bus/usb be obsoleted? also are there any differences between those two files? or are they exchangeable? also what about the hotplug interface and udev? I hope I can still count on $DEVICE being the /proc/bus/usb/ device when my hotplug script is being called? and I hope libusb will continue to have filename and dirname as those /proc/bus/usb// so I can use it to reconstruct the path, and open the right file. (I got a real strange bug report by a debian user with dirname "3" instead of "003" and filename "5" instead of "005", but he libusb code looks fine). In short: I'm confused by the change / new device files. please help. Regards, Andreas ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
