Linux sysfs File System
In Linux, every directory has its own purpose for its existence. The same is true for the sysfs directory. The sysfs entries are used by the kernel to export the information to processes in the user domain and to get input from the user. These entries travel through the file system to find the show and store functions registered for it.
Entries in sysfs can be sorted based on the bus type, object type, device type, parent/child relationships, etc. Symlinks aid in reducing redundancies.
