Linux namespace, sysfs object hierarchy & device table browser

ScreenshotScreenshotScreenshot

Sysfs Object Explorer is an interactive desktop Linux kernel object hierarchy explorer
for inspecting process namespaces, sysfs bus and device classes, major/minor device
drivers, and registered kernel filesystems.
An independent Linux alternative inspired by desktop kernel object namespace browsers, it
reads live /proc and /sys interfaces to present kernel subsystems in a structured tree with
an interactive sysfs attribute viewer.

Key Features:
- Active Kernel Namespace Inspector (/proc/self/ns): Displays live inode identifiers and
clone flags for cgroup, ipc, mnt, net, pid, time, user, and uts namespaces across
accessible user-space processes.
- Interactive Sysfs Bus & Class Explorer (/sys/bus & /sys/class): Navigates kernel buses,
device classes, driver bindings, and symlink targets with a real-time sysfs attribute
key-value inspector and instant search filtering.
- Device Major/Minor & Filesystem Tables: Parses /proc/devices character and block major
numbers, /proc/misc minor drivers, and /proc/filesystems (block-backed vs virtual nodev
filesystems cross-referenced with active mounts).
- Subsystem Telemetry & Export: Renders a kernel object distribution chart and exports
complete namespace, sysfs, device, and filesystem snapshots to CSV and JSON files.
