raw1394 (664B)

      1What:		raw1394 (a.k.a. "Raw IEEE1394 I/O support" for FireWire)
      2Date:		May 2010 (scheduled), finally removed in kernel v2.6.37
      3Contact:	linux1394-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
      4Description:
      5	/dev/raw1394 was a character device file that allowed low-level
      6	access to FireWire buses.  Its major drawbacks were its inability
      7	to implement sensible device security policies, and its low level
      8	of abstraction that required userspace clients to duplicate much
      9	of the kernel's ieee1394 core functionality.
     10
     11	Replaced by /dev/fw*, i.e. the <linux/firewire-cdev.h> ABI of
     12	firewire-core.
