Hi,

May be I miss something obvious but most information that was available 
in /proc/ide is missing under /sys. At the very least, Mandriva hardware 
detection expects /proc/ide/hdX/model; nothing close is under /sys.

It is really better to obtain some information using IOCTLs (i.e. SMART
data) but for other like "model" it makes perfect sense to add them to /sys.

Are there any plans to extend IDE /sys interface to provide full range of 
information from /proc? Alternatively I appreciate description (or pointer to 
thereof) how to get information that was available under /proc/ide 
without /proc/ide :)

Could you please add the information that you find missing to the existing
infrastructure in ide.c (ide_dev_attrs[] table)?

Thanks,
Bart
