It would be easier to help you if you explained exactly _what_ you are 
trying to do? I assume you are trying to write udev rules because that 
is the only thing I have used /sys for. I'll assume that is the case 
with my reply:


Have you read the udev how-to?

http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/udev-guide.xml
http://www.reactivated.net/writing_udev_rules.html

In particular...notice this part to parse /sys files: 
http://www.reactivated.net/writing_udev_rules.html#identify-sysfs and 
this command: udevinfo -a -p /sys/path/to/hardware/info


Hope that helps and maybe I assumed wrong...meh,

[gentoo-user] OT: /sys-demystifying-tool?

[Meino Christian Cramer]

Hi,

 sorry for this offtopic question, but: Where installers met :)

 I am looking for a tool, which makes /sys more humand readable. It dont
 need to have a gui or such...something like lspci would be
 sufficient.

 Thanks a lot for any helpful reply in advance ! :)

 Have a nice weekend !
