2010-01-25delete outdated and unmaintained writing_udev_rulesKay Sievers
Many statements in this document are no longer correct, or even suggest things we do not want to support, or do not work at all with the current version of udev. Any new documentation should better be added to the udev man page, which is usually kept up-to-date.

2009-08-07Merge libudev, udev, and the unconditional extras in a single Makefile.am.Diego Elio 'Flameeyes' Pettenò
Instead of using multiple recursive Makefile.am files, use a single Makefile.am that sets and builds all the basic suite of libraries and binaries for udev. This reduces the number of files in the source tree, and also reduces drastically the build time when using parallel-make. With this setup, all the compile steps will be executed in parallel, and just the linking stage will be (partially) serialised on the libraries creation.

2006-01-09replace libsysfsKay Sievers
We never used any of the libsysfs convenience features. Here we replace it completely with 300 lines of code, which are much simpler and a bit faster cause udev(d) does not open any syfs file for a simple event which does not need any parent device information.

2005-05-09[PATCH] Writing udev rules docs updateDaniel Drake
Here's a long overdue update to the udev rules docs, based on lots of user feedback from the last few months. Mostly updates to keep up with the new udev features, some clarifications and wording improvements. I added a section on rules for palm pilots due to the excessive amount of mail I get about them. I removed the nvidia stuff because it's out of date. Added another section about debugging using logs and udevtest. Removed the thanks list because I haven't been updating it and there are too many people to name now, sorry..!
2005-04-26[PATCH] complete removal of explicit udev permissions config filekay.sievers@vrfy.org
2005-04-26[PATCH] replace tdb database by simple lockless file databasekay.sievers@vrfy.org
This makes the udev operation completely lockless by storing a file for every node in /dev/.udevdb/* This solved the problem with deadlocking concurrent udev processes waiting for each other to release the file lock under heavy load.
2005-04-26[PATCH] Writing udev rules doc updatedsd@gentoo.org
Here's an update to the documentation. It makes a few minor corrections and adds info about multiple-symlinks. It also seems that the patch I sent on April 27th (patching v0.53 to 0.54) was not applied, so this patch includes that update too, which was also just some small corrections plus added info on renaming network devices.

2005-04-26[PATCH] Update writing udev rules docsdan@reactivated.net
Here's an update for the writing udev rules document. - Minor corrections/clarifications - Added info about using NAME{all_partitions} - Added more info about udevinfo, simplifying the rule-writing process You can ignore the diff I sent you yesterday - according to the 20040415 bk snapshot on codemonkey.org, you haven't applied it yet. This patch incorporates that update, and some other changes I just made.
