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 to duplicate much 9 of the kernel's ieee1394 core functionality. 10 11 Replaced by /dev/fw*, i.e. the <linux/firewire-cdev.h> ABI of 12 firewire-core. 13 14 Users: 15 libraw1394 (works with firewire-cdev too, transparent to library ABI 16 users)
