Perhaps in Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-scsi-devices-hpsa (which doesn't exist) and/or in Documentation/scsi/hpsa.txt (which does exist, and is where other hpsa specific sysfs attributes are documented.) Probably so as not to duplicate things, the latter. Or maybe what documentation of sysfs things that is currently in hpsa.txt should be moved to Documentation/ABI/... and a reference to it put in hpsa.txt? -- steve -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
