+The sysfs directory structure and the attributes in each directory define an
|
|
|
+ABI between the kernel and user space. As for any ABI, it is important that
|
|
|
+this ABI is stable and properly documented. All new sysfs attributes must be
|
|
|
+documented in Documentation/ABI. See also Documentation/ABI/README for more
|
|
|
+information.
