configfs is a RAM-based filesystem that provides the converse
|
2009-01-22 08:42:52 +01:00
|
|
|
of sysfs's functionality. Where sysfs is a filesystem-based
|
|
|
|
|
view of kernel objects, configfs is a filesystem-based manager
|
|
|
|
|
of kernel objects, or config_items.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Both sysfs and configfs can and should exist together on the
|
|
|
|
|
same system. One is not a replacement for the other.
