162306a36Sopenharmony_ciWhat: raw1394 (a.k.a. "Raw IEEE1394 I/O support" for FireWire) 262306a36Sopenharmony_ciDate: May 2010 (scheduled), finally removed in kernel v2.6.37 362306a36Sopenharmony_ciContact: linux1394-devel@lists.sourceforge.net 462306a36Sopenharmony_ciDescription: 562306a36Sopenharmony_ci /dev/raw1394 was a character device file that allowed low-level 662306a36Sopenharmony_ci access to FireWire buses. Its major drawbacks were its inability 762306a36Sopenharmony_ci to implement sensible device security policies, and its low level 862306a36Sopenharmony_ci of abstraction that required userspace clients to duplicate much 962306a36Sopenharmony_ci of the kernel's ieee1394 core functionality. 1062306a36Sopenharmony_ci 1162306a36Sopenharmony_ci Replaced by /dev/fw*, i.e. the <linux/firewire-cdev.h> ABI of 1262306a36Sopenharmony_ci firewire-core. 1362306a36Sopenharmony_ci 1462306a36Sopenharmony_ciUsers: 1562306a36Sopenharmony_ci libraw1394 (works with firewire-cdev too, transparent to library ABI 1662306a36Sopenharmony_ci users) 17
