What: /sys/devices/.../removable Date: May 2021 Contact: Rajat Jain <rajatxjain@gmail.com> Description: Information about whether a given device can be removed from the platform by the user. This is determined by its subsystem in a bus / platform-specific way. This attribute is only present for devices that can support determining such information: =========== =================================================== "removable" device can be removed from the platform by the user "fixed" device is fixed to the platform / cannot be removed by the user. "unknown" The information is unavailable / cannot be deduced. =========== =================================================== Currently this is only supported by USB (which infers the information from a combination of hub descriptor bits and platform-specific data such as ACPI) and PCI (which gets this from ACPI / device tree).
