[systemd-devel] libudev: subdirectories in sysfs

Hi!

libudev has some cooperating procedures that return the keys for a bunch of sysfs attributes for a given device.

These attributes all correspond to files that are stored in the sysfs device directory.

In the same directory there are sometimes subdirectories, that themselves contain files
with information about their corresponding attribute. The dm directory is one obvious
example.

Are their any plans for libudev to add an ability to get the values from these subdirectories
as some kind of attributes?

If no, why?

Thanks!
