Hello,

Today, I'm happy to present you the Debian package sysfsutils, which is
part of the utils section, and maintained by Martin Pitt
<mpitt at debian.org>. 

This package contains : sysfs query tool and boot-time setup.

Sysfs is a virtual file system in Linux kernel 2.5+ that provides a
tree of system devices. This package provides the program 'systool' to query
it: it can list devices by bus, class, and topology.

In addition this package ships a configuration file /etc/sysfs.conf which
allows to conveniently set sysfs attributes at system bootup (in the init
script /etc/init.d/sysfsutils).

If you need sysfs queries in own programs, then you may want to use the
libsysfs library directly (package libsysfs-dev).
