Here is the next round of udevd/udevsend:
udevsend - If the IPC message we send is not catched by a receiver we fork
the udevd daemon to process this and the following events
udevd - We reorder the events we receive and execute our current udev for
every event. If one or more events are missing, we wait
10 seconds and then go ahead in the queue.
If the queue is empty and we don't receive any event for the next
30 seconds, the daemon exits.
The next incoming event will fork the daemon again.
config - The path's to the executable are specified in udevd.h
Now they are pointing to the current directory only.
I don't like daemons hiding secrets (and mem leaks :)) inside,
so I want to try this model. It should be enough logic to get all possible
hotplug events executed in the right order.
If no event, then no daemon! So everybody should be happy :)
Here we see:
1. the daemon fork,
2. the udev work,
3. the 10 sec timeout and the skipped events,
4. the udev work,
...,
5. and the 30 sec timeout and exit.
EVENTS:

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.

rule applies to.
This should fix one of the more annoying things to me about udev, and
gets rid of a TODO item.
|
|
Kill the two tests with %D.
|
|
This patch adds a '%' to the format char list, so that a external
program may called with a non expanded '%' like:
PROGRAM="/bin/date +%%s"
Olaf Hering asked for the feature.
A tricky test is also added :)

Here is a slightly better version of the patch.
After a conversation with Patrick, we are now able to execute the PROGRAM
and also match in all following rules with the RESULT value from this exec.
EXAMPLE:
We have 7 rules with RESULT and 2 with PROGRAM.
Only the 5th rule matches with the callout result from the exec in the 4th rule.
RULES:
PROGRAM="/bin/echo abc", RESULT="no_match", NAME="web-no-2"
KERNEL="video*", RESULT="123", NAME="web-no-3"
KERNEL="video*", RESULT="123", NAME="web-no-4"
PROGRAM="/bin/echo 123", RESULT="no_match", NAME="web-no-5"
KERNEL="video*", RESULT="123", NAME="web-yes"
RESULT:

Can't figure out how to test for "nothing" in the udev-test.pl script framework.
|
|
|

device is on a bus.
Thanks to Martin Schlemmer <azarah@nosferatu.za.org> for pointing this out.

Here is a small fix for udev-test.pl, to print the METHOD also
for the "whitespace config" tests.
TEST: Handle comment lines in config file (and replace kernel name)
method '' for 'class/tty/ttyUSB0' expecting node 'visor'
add: ok remove: ok

machines.
|

|
|
o change the parsing to get a key from the rule and sort it
into our list of known keys instead of expecting a special order
o the key to match a sysfs file must be prependend by 'SYSFS_' now
to match with the new parsing.
(The config must be changed, but it's a bit more descriptive too.)
o put names of fields in define's, like the name of the methods
o update all tests and the man page
|

Try this patch if you like, to get special parts of the callout output.
This beast works now:
CALLOUT, BUS="scsi", PROGRAM="/bin/echo -n node link1 link2", ID="node *", NAME="%1c", SYMLINK="%2c %3c"
The callout returned string is separated by spaces and is
addressed by the "len" value of the 'c' format char.
Since we support symlinks, this my be useful for other uses of callout too.
introduce 'len number' for format chars
the first use is 'c'-the callout return to select a part of the output string like:
CALLOUT, BUS="scsi", PROGRAM="/bin/echo -n node link1 link2", ID="node *", NAME="%1c", SYMLINK="%2c %3c"
(note: first part is requested by len=1, len=0 will return the whole string)
add a test to udev-test.pl

Here is a patch to allow the creation of multiple symlinks.
The names must be separated by a space character.
REPLACE, KERNEL="ttyUSB0", NAME="visor", SYMLINK="first-%n second-%n third-%n"
results in:
Dec 9 05:28:51 pim udev[12019]: create_node: mknod(udev-root/visor, 020666, 188, 0)
Dec 9 05:28:51 pim udev[12019]: create_node: symlink 'udev-root/first-0' to node 'visor' requested
Dec 9 05:28:51 pim udev[12019]: create_node: symlink(./visor, udev-root/first-0)

Here is a new version with relative link target path optimization
an better tests in udev-test.pl:
LABEL, BUS="scsi", vendor="IBM-ESXS", NAME="1/2/a/b/node", SYMLINK="1/2/c/d/symlink"
Dec 7 06:48:34 pim udev[13789]: create_node: symlink 'udev-root/1/2/c/d/symlink' to node '1/2/a/b/node' requested

switch LABEL search to pattern match
add a test for pattern match in LABEL
remove useless rule from udev.rules
|
|
Now we can handle wildcards properly within the permission file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now there are only 3 valid environment test variables. The rest can be
specified with the config file.
|
|
As promised yesterday, here is a patch to implement a more advanced
pattern matching instead of the simple '*'.
We can remove the "tty"="tty" line from udev.rules now and
replace "tty*" by "tty[0-9]*" to catch only the vc's.
implement pattern matching in namedev
'*' - to match zero or more chars
'?' - to match exactly one char
'[]' - character classes with ranges '[0-9]'and negation [!A]
|
|
|
|
the older udev.config file is now called udev.rules.
This allows us to better control configuration values, and move away from
the environment variables.
|
|
catch device name by wildcard to support a whole class of devices
by just one config line like:
REPLACE, KERNEL="tty*", NAME="vc/%n"
|
|
|
|
|
|
03-udev-test.pl-add-subdir-test.diff
o duplicate existing test and change it to explicitely test the subdir handling
|
|
add a test.all script.
|
|
I found two missing characters and optimized $PWD.
|
|
|
|
|
|
which blows away my puny shell scripts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I've attached a patch against 005 for both the block and tty scripts. I
didn't bother running udev backgrounded, since as you say, the new code
runs a lot faster.
