.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) provides a view of the various hardware attached to a system. This view is updated dynamically as hardware configuration changes by means of hotplug or other mechanisms. HAL represents a piece of hardware as a device object. A device object is identified by a unique identifer and carries a set of key/value pairs, referred to as device properties. Some properties are derived from the actual hardware, some are merged from device information files (\fB\&.fdi\fR files), and some are related to the actual device configuration.
.sp
.LP
The \fBhal-get-property\fR and \fBhal-set-property\fR commands allow you to get and set properties of hardware that conforms to HAL specifications.
