When a device is found on the bus, w1 core checks if driver for it's family is
loaded. If so, the family driver is attached to the slave.
-If there is no driver for the family, default one is assigned, which allows to perform
-almost any kind of operations. Each logical operation is a transaction
-in nature, which can contain several (two or one) low-level operations.
-Let's see how one can read EEPROM context:
-1. one must write control buffer, i.e. buffer containing command byte
-and two byte address. At this step bus is reset and appropriate device
-is selected using either W1_SKIP_ROM or W1_MATCH_ROM command.
-Then provided control buffer is being written to the wire.
-2. reading. This will issue reading eeprom response.
-
-It is possible that between 1. and 2. w1 master thread will reset bus for searching
-and slave device will be even removed, but in this case 0xff will
-be read, since no device was selected.
+If there is no driver for the family, a simple sysfs entry is created
+for the slave device.
W1 device families
name - the device name, usually the same as the directory name
w1_slave - (optional) a binary file whose meaning depends on the
family driver
-rw - (optional) created for slave devices which do not have
- appropriate family driver. Allows to read/write binary data.
