| Summary : Interface to Linux IEEE-1394 subsystem
|
Description :
libraw1394 is the only supported interface to the kernel side raw1394
of the Linux IEEE-1394 subsystem, which provides direct access to the
connected 1394 buses to user space. Through libraw1394/raw1394,
applications can directly send to and receive from other nodes without
requiring a kernel driver for the protocol in question.
The reason for making a library the interface to the kernel is to
avoid a program dependancy on the kernel version, which would hinder
development and optimization of raw1394. If development changed the
protocol and made it incompatible with previous versions only the
libraw1394 has to be upgraded to match the kernel version (instead of
all applications).
