What: /sys/class/rc/rcN/protocols
Date: Jun 2010
KernelVersion: 2.6.36
Contact: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <m.chehab@samsung.com>
Description:
Reading this file returns a list of available protocols,
something like:
"rc5 [rc6] nec jvc [sony]"
Enabled protocols are shown in [] brackets.
Writing "+proto" will add a protocol to the list of enabled
protocols.
Writing "-proto" will remove a protocol from the list of enabled
protocols.
Writing "proto" will enable only "proto".
Writing "none" will disable all protocols.
Write fails with EINVAL if an invalid protocol combination or
unknown protocol name is used.
