From 4e834da1da2d7e80547e493c4b21c809dcb0ae09 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefan Richter Date: Sun, 19 Nov 2006 23:04:31 +0100 Subject: ieee1394: schedule *_oui sysfs attributes for removal There is no manpower available to reform oui.db into a library for use in more kernel subsystems. The low ratio of usefulness to size and the occasional need to update oui.db from IEEE's official list suggest to drop oui.db. I plan to make a userspace script available which translates the remaining numeric sysfs attributes to names of organizations.
