What about using symlinks for the name files and text content for the numeric ones? You could even drop the names/ and codes/ subdirectories too: $ cat /sys/kernel/capability/20 cap_sys_pacct $ ls -l /sys/kernel/capability/cap_mknod lr--r--r-- 1 root root 64 Feb 8 08:26 cap_mknod -> 27 $ cat /sys/kernel/capability/names/cap_mknod cap_mknod Cheers Andrew -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFHrIfh+bHCR3gb8jsRAkueAKDYMu+so+YCJD9klNentiWlwZJXlQCgrzSa tWr1XM1nKcvST1ScAfO27j4= =w5N/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-security-module" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
