1 | What: raw1394 (a.k.a. "Raw IEEE1394 I/O support" for FireWire) | ||
2 | Date: May 2010 (scheduled), finally removed in kernel v2.6.37 | ||
3 | Contact: linux1394-devel@lists.sourceforge.net | ||
4 | Description: | ||
5 | /dev/raw1394 was a character device file that allowed low-level | ||
6 | access to FireWire buses. Its major drawbacks were its inability | ||
7 | to implement sensible device security policies, and its low level | ||
8 | of abstraction that required userspace clients do duplicate much | ||
9 | of the kernel's ieee1394 core functionality. | ||
10 | Replaced by /dev/fw*, i.e. the <linux/firewire-cdev.h> ABI of | ||
11 | firewire-core. | ||
12 | |||
13 | Users: | ||
14 | libraw1394 (works with firewire-cdev too, transparent to library ABI | ||
15 | users) | ||
