What: devfs Date: July 2005 (scheduled), finally removed in kernel v2.6.18 Contact: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Description: devfs has been unmaintained for a number of years, has unfixable races, contains a naming policy within the kernel that is against the LSB, and can be replaced by using udev. The files fs/devfs/*, include/linux/devfs_fs*.h were removed, along with the assorted devfs function calls throughout the kernel tree. Users: |
