18c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ciWhat: raw1394 (a.k.a. "Raw IEEE1394 I/O support" for FireWire) 28c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ciDate: May 2010 (scheduled), finally removed in kernel v2.6.37 38c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ciContact: linux1394-devel@lists.sourceforge.net 48c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ciDescription: 58c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci /dev/raw1394 was a character device file that allowed low-level 68c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci access to FireWire buses. Its major drawbacks were its inability 78c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci to implement sensible device security policies, and its low level 88c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci of abstraction that required userspace clients to duplicate much 98c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci of the kernel's ieee1394 core functionality. 108c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci 118c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci Replaced by /dev/fw*, i.e. the <linux/firewire-cdev.h> ABI of 128c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci firewire-core. 138c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci 148c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ciUsers: 158c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci libraw1394 (works with firewire-cdev too, transparent to library ABI 168c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci users) 17
