[PATCH] add sysfs class support for raw devices [06/10]

From: Greg KH
Date: Thu Jan 15 2004 - 15:49:07 EST



This adds class/raw/ support for all raw devices. It also provides a
symlink to the block device that the raw device is mapped to. For
example:

$ tree /sys/class/raw/
/sys/class/raw/
|-- raw1
| |-- dev
| `-- device -> ../../../block/sda
|-- raw2
| |-- dev
| `-- device -> ../../../block/sda/sda2
`-- rawctl
`-- dev


Note, in order to get that symlink, I had to export get_gendisk() so that
modules can use it. I hope this is ok with everyone.

This is based on a patch originally written by
Leann Ogasawara <ogasawara@xxxxxxxx>
