Device view

6.18 LPAR mode z/VM guest KVM guest

This view sorts devices according to their device drivers, but independent from the device category. It also includes logical devices that are not categorized.

The device view is of the form:
/sys/devices/<driver>/<device>
where:
<driver>
is a name that specifies an individual device driver or the device driver component that controls the device.
<device>
identifies an individual device. The name of this directory can be a device bus-ID or the name of a DCSS or IUCV device.

Examples

  • This example shows the path for a qeth device.
    /sys/devices/qeth/0.0.a100
  • This example shows the path for a DCSS block device.
    /sys/devices/dcssblk/mydcss
