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it's out of date.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..!

|
Now the tests should work again...

Yeah, I guess it's broken. In create_node() in udev_add.c there is
always added 1 to the minor number, thus the error. The attached patch
should fix this.

SUBSYSTEM=="block", RUN="/sbin/program"
will execute the program only for block device events.
ACTION="remove", SUBSYSTEM=="block", RUN"/sbin/program"
will execute the program, if a block device is removed.

Better remove characters that are useless in a device node name.
It may be a security risk to pass any character read from e.g. a
sysfs attribute to a shell script we execute later.
Prevent the modification of the libsysfs attribute value
cache.
Clear PROGRAM result if the execution encountered an error.

ID should do the same, cause we walk up the chain of devices on the
physical device and can match for the name of every device there with
the ID key.

Fix from: Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.de>
namedev_parse is a bit overzealous when in comes to handling backspaces;
it always eats up backspaces regardless of anything beyond that. This
means it is impossible to enter '\t' in a rule. Quite a bit of fun when
you're trying to write regexps.
|
|

Here we move all possible options into a own key to make it possible
to have options-only rules.
The options on the NAME key are removed from the man page and will
be removed from a future version of udev.
For ignore rules, OPTIONS="ignore" should be used.
The rule:
SUBSYSTEM="block", SYSFS{removable}="1", OPTIONS="all_partitions"
will create all partitions for a block device which is known to have
removable media (a check for cdrom drives would be needed too).
|

This lets my multiprocessor boxes do the testing quicker...

Just stat() the "dev" file in the device directory instead of
opening the directory and iterating over all entries.
Make udevstart work with the settings in with udev.conf so we can
run a test program.
Add a test for udevstart.
Remove changelog stuff from code. We should never start with this
silly thing.
|
|
Events for partition devies may want to read the main block device
name to compose it's own name or read a disklabel from the main device.
SUBSYSTEM="block", KERNEL="*[1-9]", NAME="%P-p%n"
will append the partition number to the name of the main block device.
|
|
%N will create a temporary node for a callout a be sustituted with the
name of the node.
|
|
|
|
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
...
device: /class/tty/console, action: remove
forking udev time: Sat Dec 11 18:59:57 2004
the delay time is: 3 s
device: /class/tty/ptmx, action: remove
forking udev time: Sat Dec 11 19:00:07 2004
the delay time is: 4013 s
the delay time is: 4013
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.
