Annotated Snippet
What: /sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw[0-9]+/
Date: May 2007
KernelVersion: 2.6.22
Contact: linux1394-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
Description:
IEEE 1394 node device attributes.
Read-only. Mutable during the node device's lifetime.
See IEEE 1212 for semantic definitions.
config_rom
Contents of the Configuration ROM register.
Binary attribute; an array of host-endian u32.
guid
The node's EUI-64 in the bus information block of
Configuration ROM.
Hexadecimal string representation of an u64.
What: /sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw[0-9]+/units
Date: June 2009
KernelVersion: 2.6.31
Contact: linux1394-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
Description:
IEEE 1394 node device attribute.
Read-only. Mutable during the node device's lifetime.
See IEEE 1212 for semantic definitions.
units
Summary of all units present in an IEEE 1394 node.
Contains space-separated tuples of specifier_id and
version of each unit present in the node. Specifier_id
and version are hexadecimal string representations of
u24 of the respective unit directory entries.
Specifier_id and version within each tuple are separated
by a colon.
Users: udev rules to set ownership and access permissions or ACLs of
/dev/fw[0-9]+ character device files
What: /sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw[0-9]+/is_local
Date: July 2012
KernelVersion: 3.6
Contact: linux1394-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
Description:
IEEE 1394 node device attribute.
Read-only and immutable.
Values: 1: The sysfs entry represents a local node (a controller card).
0: The sysfs entry represents a remote node.
What: /sys/bus/firewire/devices/fw[0-9]+[.][0-9]+/
Date: May 2007
KernelVersion: 2.6.22
Contact: linux1394-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
Description:
IEEE 1394 unit device attributes.
Read-only. Immutable during the unit device's lifetime.
See IEEE 1212 for semantic definitions.
modalias
Same as MODALIAS in the uevent at device creation.
rom_index
Offset of the unit directory within the parent device's
(node device's) Configuration ROM, in quadlets.
Decimal string representation.
Annotation
- Atlas domain: Support Tooling And Documentation / Documentation.
- Implementation status: atlas-only.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
