You can find some overview of the sysfs structure in the kernel source
under Documentation/s390/driver_model.txt. More documentation is in the
various .c and .h files, of course ;) - well, it's still experimental.

In general, every device has to be brought online explicitely (except for
the console device and the dasds specified in the dasd= parameter).
qeth, lcs and ctc devices also have to be grouped (go to the appropriate
driver directory under /sys/bus/ccwgroup/drivers/).

Configuration is done via the attributes in the device directories - they
should be much in the same way as in 2.4 (for example, do an
"echo primary_router > /sys/devices/qeth/<your_dev>/route4" to use your
card as a primary router for ipv4 traffic).

Oh, and don't turn on CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB, as this breaks our ccw alignment.

Best regards / Mit freundlichen Gruessen
