A decision on what to favour would certainly help: sysfs or ioctl or something else. While i have missed that in this particular case¹) you apparently shall read via sysfs and write via ioctl -- i thought that most could already be written via sysfs which doesn't seem to be true -- it would be nice to get rid of the devilish ioctl mid-term iff there is consensus about it. The bridge is admittedly a vicarious corner case and probably seldomly used anyway. ¹) https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/bridge/2008-May/005839.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-embedded" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
