"Raw IEEE1394 I/O support" for FireWire) -Date: May 2010 (scheduled), finally removed in kernel v2.6.37 -Contact: linux1394-devel@lists.sourceforge.net -Description: - /dev/raw1394 was a character device file that allowed low-level - access to FireWire buses. Its major drawbacks were its inability - to implement sensible device security policies, and its low level - of abstraction that required userspace clients to duplicate much - of the kernel's ieee1394 core functionality. - Replaced by /dev/fw*, i.e. the <linux/firewire-cdev.h> ABI of - firewire-core. - -Users: - libraw1394 (works with firewire-cdev too, transparent to library ABI - users) |
