Explanation
- sysfs is the Virtual Filesystem created during the 2.6 Kernel release cycle to show device information as procfs did not do this type of information that well. Memory etc has not been ported to sysfs as it was never intended to show that type of information so it is unlikely it will be ported at all. * sysfs is a virtual file system provided by Linux. Sysfs exports information about devices and drivers from the kernel device model to user space, and is also used for configuration.
