Mention the recently added netdev handling and the dev.d/ directories
in the man pages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
this is needed to test the /etc/dev.d/ stuff properly.

Here we change the DEVPATH for netdev's in the environment of the dev.d/
scripts to the name the device is renamed to. The original name doesn't
exist in the kernel after rename.
|
|
Here is a patch to change the netdev handling in the database and for
the dev.d/ calls. I applies on top of the udevd.patch, cause klibc has
no sysinfo().
o netdev's are also put into our database now. I want this for the
udevruler gui to get a list of all handled devices.
All devices in the db are stamped with the system uptime value at
the creation time. 'udevinfo -d' prints it.
o the DEVPATH value is the key for udevdb, but if we rename
a netdev, the name is replaced in the kernel, so we add
the changed name to the db to match with the remove event.
NOTE: The dev.d/ scripts still get the original name from the
hotplug call. Should we replace DEVPATH with the new name too?
o We now only add a device to the db, if we have successfully created
the main node or successfully renamed a netdev. This is the main part
of the patch, cause I needed to clean the retval passing trough all
the functions used for node creation.
o DEVNODE sounds a bit ugly for netdev's so I exported DEVNAME too.
Can we change the name?
o I've added a UDEV_NO_DEVD to possibly skip the script execution
and used it in udev-test.pl.
udevstart is the same horror now, if you have scripts with logging
statements in dev.d/ it takes minutes to finish, can we skip the
scripts here too?
o The get_device_type() function is changed to be more strict, cause
'udevinfo -a -p /block/' gets a class device for it and tries to
print the major/minor values.
o bugfix, the RESULT value has now a working newline removal and a test
for this case.

here is a patch on top of your nice improvements.
I fixed the whitespace and it hopefully fixes the stupid timestamp bug in
udevd. Some stupid OS sets the hwclock to localtime and linux changes it
to UTC while starting. If any events are pending they may be delayed by
the users time distance from UTC :) So we use the uptime seconds now.

This patch covers a number of areas:
1) sysfs.h is fixed up to use the common dbg() macro. This fixes the
case where DEBUG is defined but USE_LOG isn't.
2) udevstart.c is modified to include the proper headers, rather than
getting them indirectly which can break depending on Makefile flags
3) udevd.c gets some major changes:
a) I added a pipe from the signal handler. This fixes the race
conditions that I mentioned earlier. Basically, the point of the pipe
is to force the select() call to return immediately if a signal handler
fired before we actually started the select() call. This then lets us
run the appropriate code based on flags set in the signal handler proper.
b) I added a number of flags to coalesce calls to common routines. This
should make things slightly more efficient.
c) since most calls will tend to come in with a sequence number larger
than what has been received, I switched msg_queue_insert() to scan the
msg_list backwards to improve performance.

This may prevent it.

Hi all, Greg,
libsysfs/dlist.c: _dlist_mark_move()
is missing checks for empty lists and may (and indeed, does) crash when=20
called with empty dlists.

Here is a unified version, with all the functions moved to udev_lib.c.
We have a generic function now, to call a given fnct(char *) for every
file ending with a specific suffix, sorted in lexical order. We use it
to execute the dev.d/ files and read our rules.d/ files. The binary
should be a bit smaller now.
I've also changed it, to not do the dev.d/ exec for net devices.
|
|
Rules with NAME{all_partitions}= are now applied only to the parent of a
block device. We no longer need to exclude the partitions or sg* devices.

The file may not exist and errors would be spewed on the console.

Hmm, Arndt Bergmann sent a patch like this one a few weeks ago and
I want to bring the question back, if we want to handle net device
naming with udev.
With this patch it is actually possible to specify something like this
in udev.rules:
KERNEL="dummy*", SYSFS{address}="00:00:00:00:00:00", SYSFS{features}="0x0", NAME="blind%n"
KERNEL="eth*", SYSFS{address}="00:0d:60:77:30:91", NAME="private"
and you will get:
[root@pim udev.kay]# cat /proc/net/dev
Inter-| Receive | Transmit
face |bytes packets errs drop fifo frame compressed multicast|bytes packets errs drop fifo colls carrier compressed
lo: 1500 30 0 0 0 0 0 0 1500 30 0 0 0 0 0 0
private: 278393 1114 0 0 0 0 0 0 153204 1468 0 0 0 0 0 0
sit0: 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
blind0: 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
The udevinfo program is also working:
[root@pim udev.kay]# ./udevinfo -a -p /sys/class/net/private
looking at class device '/sys/class/net/private':
SYSFS{addr_len}="6"
SYSFS{address}="00:0d:60:77:30:91"
SYSFS{broadcast}="ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff"
SYSFS{features}="0x3a9"
SYSFS{flags}="0x1003"
SYSFS{ifindex}="2"
SYSFS{iflink}="2"
SYSFS{mtu}="1500"
SYSFS{tx_queue_len}="1000"
SYSFS{type}="1"
follow the class device's "device"
looking at the device chain at '/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1e.0/0000:02:01.0':
BUS="pci"
ID="0000:02:01.0"
SYSFS{class}="0x020000"
SYSFS{detach_state}="0"
SYSFS{device}="0x101e"
SYSFS{irq}="11"
SYSFS{subsystem_device}="0x0549"
SYSFS{subsystem_vendor}="0x1014"
SYSFS{vendor}="0x8086"
The matching device will be renamed to the given name. The device name
will not be put into the udev database, cause the kernel renames the
device and the sysfs name disappears.
I like it, cause it plugs in nicely. We have all the naming features
and sysfs queries and walks inside of udev. The sysfs timing races
are already solved and the management tools are working for net devices
too. nameif can only match the MAC address now. udev can match any sysfs
value of the device tree the net device is connected to.
But right, net devices do not have device nodes :)

I think this is what you want for udevinfo. Patched against the latest BK
tree. I tested it and it seemed to work.
One other question, shouldn't udevinfo.c:print_all_attributes() check to
make sure attr->method is SYSFS_METHOD_SHOW along with checking to see
if attr->value != NULL or doesn't that matter?
Here's the libsysfs fix for print_device_chain():

Patch from Andrey, which restores the ability to use RESULT values in a
"symlink only" rule. We need to call apply_format() directly after
the matching rule, otherwise the RESULT value may be lost.
