2010-04-20configure.ac: ddd --with-firmware-path optionYury G. Kudryashov
In NixOS we need to use non-standard firmware path: we have no /lib.
2010-03-16firmware: fix possible segfault when firmware device goes away while loadingKay Sievers
Thanks to Ruediger Oertel.
2010-01-31firmware: fix error reporting on missing firmware filesThomas Bächler
The new firmware loader does not report an error to the kernel if a firmware file is missing. This results in modprobe stalling for 60 seconds for each firmware a module tries to load.

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.
2009-07-01firmware: search for third party or sysadmin supplied firmware updatesJon Masters
We currently search /lib/firmware and /lib/firmware/`uname -r` for firmware files for device drivers loaded by the currently running kernel. These are often packaged by distributions as a subpackage of the kernel or as a separate package containing firmware. But these files cannot easily be updated by third parties or sysadmins independently of that package. This patch causes udev to also look for firmware files in an "updates" directory, which is almost identical in purpose to the module-init-tools "updates" directories insomuch as local changes can go in here and will take preference over firmware supplied by any distribution.

2008-12-06make: do not delete autotools generated file with distcleanKay Sievers
[...] running the command `make maintainer-clean' should not delete `configure' even if `configure' can be remade using a rule in the Makefile. More generally, `make maintainer-clean' should not delete anything that needs to exist in order to run `configure' and then begin to build the program. This is the only exception; `maintainer-clean' should delete everything else that can be rebuilt.

Many thanks to Chris Spiegel for finding the still current vol_id non-large-file-access bug, because of not including config.h.

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.
