| 2 | Date: July 2005 (scheduled), finally removed in kernel v2.6.18 |
| 3 | Contact: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> |
| 4 | Description: |
| 5 | devfs has been unmaintained for a number of years, has unfixable |
| 6 | races, contains a naming policy within the kernel that is |
| 7 | against the LSB, and can be replaced by using udev. |
| 8 | The files fs/devfs/*, include/linux/devfs_fs*.h were removed, |
| 9 | along with the assorted devfs function calls throughout the |
| 10 | kernel tree. |
