Here is the missing man page for udevd/udevsend.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

Also fix up some other dependancy issues in the Makefile.
Thanks to Olaf Hering <olh@suse.de> for pointing them out.

So here is the next try :)
hpa, for good reason, didn't like my changes to klibc.
He will dump signal() completely from klibc instead, so here we switch to
sigaction() and keep udevd working with klibc.

Once again, patch to make logging a config option.
Reason for this (since you asked for it):
- In our setup it is easy (although still annoying) .. just edit the
ebuild, add logging support (or remove it) and rebuild. For say a
binary distro, having the logging is useful for debugging some
times, but its more a once of, or rare thing, as you do not add or
change config files every day. Sure, we can have logging by
default, but many do not want ~300 lines of extra debugging in their
logs is not pleasant, and they will complain. Rebuilding the
package for that binary package (given the users it is targeted to)
is usually not within most users grasp.

Yes, we are twice as fast now on my box :)

I cleaned up the rest of the comments, the whitespace and a few names to match
the whole thing. Please recheck it. Test script is switched to work on subsystem
'test' to let udev ignore it.

As Chris Friesen <chris_friesen@sympatico.ca> suggested, here we switch
the unix domains socket path to abstract namespace and get rid of the
socket file in the filesystem.
Hey, this was new to me today. So here a few words:
Linux supports a abstract namespace for sockets. We don't need a
physical file on the filesystem but only a unique string magically
starting with the '\0' character.
strace with real file:
connect(3, {sa_family=AF_UNIX, path="/udev/.udevd.sock"}, 110)
strace with abstract namespace:
connect(3, {sa_family=AF_UNIX, path=@udevd}, 110)

Same patch with a fix for the stack size setting.

Next cleaned up version. Hey, nobody wants to try it :)
Works for me, It's funny if I connect/disconnect my 4in1-usb-flash-reader
every two seconds. The 2.6 usb rocks! I can connect/diconnect a hub with 3
devices plugged in every second and don't run into any problem but a _very_
big udevd queue.

Here is the next round. We have three queues now. All incoming messages
are queued in msg_list and if nothing is missing we move it to the
running_list and exec in the background.
If the exec comes back, it removes the message from the running_list and
frees the message.
Before we exec, we check the running_list if there is a udev running on
the same device path. If yes, we move the message to the delay_list. If
the former exec comes back, we move the message to the running_list and
exec it.
The very first event is delayed now to catch possible earlier sequences,
every following event is executed without delay if no sequence is missing.
The daemon doesn't exit by itself any longer, cause we don't want to
delay every first exec.
I've put a $(PWD) for now in the Makefile for testing this beast. Only
the local binaries are executed, not the /sbin/udev. We can change it
if we are ready for real testing.
And SIGKILL can't be cought, so I removed it from the handler :)

Here is the next revision for udevd:
o Small cleanups all over the place.
o Swich to the usual linked list format "list.h".
o Better timeout handling.
We store a timestamp in in every queued event, so we don't wait longer
than the timeout specified, if the hole in the list is not shrinking.
o ignore udevd target if klibc is used

Here is the next updated updated version to apply to the lastet udev.
I've added infrastructure for getting the state of the IPC queue in the
sender and set the program to exec by the daemon. Also the magic key id
is replaced by the usual key generation by path/nr.
It looks promising, I use it on my machine and my 4in1 USB-flash-reader
connect/disconnect emits the events "randomly" but udevd is able to
reorder it and calls our normal udev in the right order.

other options.
Also documented it and added it to the .spec file.

Here is a slightly better version. I've created a logging.h file and
moved the debug macros from udev.h in there.
If you type:
'make' - you will get a binary that prints one or two lines to syslog
if a device node is created or deleted
'make LOG=false' - you get a binary that prints asolutely nothing
'make DEBUG=true' - the same as today, it will print all debug lines

Just for information. This seems to fix the gcc with klibc :)

I get the following error on install:

I had too much time during the holidays, so I played a bit with udev. The
changes are like last time mostly on the init stuff. I'm sending you this as
a great diff which is just for comments.
What it does:
-fix a typo in Makefile
-use only one "grep -v" instead of many
-don't include BK-Files into release (shrinks the stuff to 30%!)
-add a new init script which is LSB compliant
-add some flags to choose which one to use
-use /etc/udev/udev.conf in Redhat init script as the source for the udev
directory. If this is not done then the init script may create a directory
which udev itself isn't using (I changed /udev to /Udev to avoid collisions
with /usr and ran into this)
-first check for sysfs_dir before creating udev_root (maybe someone else has
already fixed this, I saw this discussion on lkml)
