With the "permissions only rules" we can just place:
MODE="0660", OWNER="root", GROUP="root"
at the beginning of the rules file and get exactly the same behavior.
If no values are given the compiled-in defaults are used.

A hour wrap during the test run does not work :) Just remove
all the useless date conversions as we are only interested in the
seconds it takes to process.
[root@pim udevd-test]# ./udevd-test.pl 9

udevd doesn't act properly.

Damm, it's hard to merge a multi-line tree into one flat line at times...

Some broken ide drivers are generating high event traffic, with
add/remove events. With this attribute, it can be specified,
that the node is always available. It may be used in conjunction
with the new DRIVER= match to catch specific kernel device drivers.
|
|
Match with a rule against a device with a specific kernel driver.
|
|
This should make it easier to catch e.g all block or net devices with
a single rule.
|
|
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.
|
|
Should prevent false error reports from happening.

Here is the first patch to cleanup the internal processing of the
various stages of an udev event. It should not change any behavior,
but if your system depends on udev, please always test it before reboot :)
We pass only one generic structure around between add, remove,
namedev, db and dev_d handling and make all relevant data available
to all internal stages. All udev structures are renamed to "udev".
We replace the fake parameter by a flag in the udev structure.
We open the class device in the main binaries and not in udev_add, to
make it possible to use libsysfs for udevstart directory crawling.
The last sleep parameters are removed.
|
|
We also emit the same things the -mm tree does now, so to make that easier
to test for.
|
|
|

their boxes.
|

when udevstart was running we didn't set the environment and the
subsystem argument for the callouts the dev.d/ scripts.
Here is a fix, that sets that with every udevstart iteration, corrects
argv[0] to be the basename() only not the whole path and adds a test
for invoking callouts without arguments.

Here are the tests for the enumeration character %e. I've added a option
string to be able to do a whole sequence of tests without node removal,
so we can skip the "remove" event and get an increasing number to append
to the name. After the sequence test the whole directory is cleaned for
the next tests.

Yeah, thanks for pointing that out. It only happens if the file ends with
whitespace-only lines. Here is a fix and a test for udev-test.pl to
cover that case.

Thanks to Yin, Hu <hu.yin@intel.com>, who made a nice perl script to test the
expected behavior of the udevd sequence number handling. The test sends
different SEQNUM sequences to udevd, while analyzing the reordering and timeout
handling of udevd.

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.

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 :)

Here is a small name change, so all expected values are named exp_*

I better do it immediately, before you put it in the empty TODO :)
Patch is a bit big, cause spaces are changed to tabs to get
space for the longer names.

Sure, not brilliant but seems to work :)
Only numeric id's are supported so far.

Here is a test for the "symlink only" rule.
Any reason to do the apply_format() inside the loop?
I've changed it.

Martin Schwenke <martin@meltin.net> asked for this feature and posted a
patch:
The following patch almost let's me have the following configuration:
PROGRAM="/sbin/aliaser %b %k %n %M %m", RESULT="?*", NAME="%c{1}", SYMLINK="%c{2+}"
allowing me to specify an arbitrary number of symlinks by saying
"giveme the second and later words"."
Here is the actual version with tests and a few words in the man page.
