+Description:
+ The /sys/class directory will consist of a group of
+ subdirectories describing individual classes of devices
+ in the kernel. The individual directories will consist
+ of either subdirectories, or symlinks to other
+ directories.
+
+ All programs that use this directory tree must be able
+ to handle both subdirectories or symlinks in order to
+ work properly.
