2005-04-26[PATCH] don't sleep if 'dev' file is already present on device add.greg@kroah.com
instead sleep for up to 10 seconds waiting for it to show up.
2005-04-26[PATCH] fix comment about how the "dev" file is made up.greg@kroah.com
2005-04-26[PATCH] udev: mode should be mode_trml@tech9.net
Unix file modes should be stored in a mode_t, not a standard type. At the moment it is actually unsigned, in fact, not a signed integer. Attached patch does an s/int mode/mode_t mode/ and cleans up the results.
2005-04-26[PATCH] udev: trivial trivialitiesrml@tech9.net
Yah yah, really trivial stuff... - get_class_device() doesn't need to be exported; it should be static - white space cleanup
2005-04-26[PATCH] got "remove of named devices" working.greg@kroah.com
database code still needs some major cleanup.

2005-04-26[PATCH] udevdb prototypedsteklof@us.ibm.com
Here's an "idea" of what I had in mind for udevdb. Let me preface the code with a few remarks: 1) I was expecting to write this udevdb for udev to keep track of devices. I was planning an external package that depends upon udev to provide an external API to the udevdb database. The calls for the interface would be read only access. Not sure how you want to do packaging, if having a separate package is ok or having it included in udev. 2) I created it as it is because udev isn't a daemon. So, the open database call doesn't take any parameters. My plan was to create a udevdb_init function that took arguments for initializing the db to start, where you could specify in memory only or a file location. This can all be filled in. 3) I hacked the Makefile to get it to work. Not sure how you'd want that in the future. 4) This assumes TDB has been installed elsewhere, you would need to edit your Makefile and point it to the header and library locations. How do you want to do TDB in udev? Do you want to just reference it and make udev dependent on that package being installed. Or should we do what samba does and include a limited tdb version in udev? 5) Again, I hacked udev into your existing code. In the future, I'd probably make a function around the filling out the udevice before calling the store command. Didn't know if you wanted to change your add device function to use struct udevice rather than having everything separate. 6) Not sure what we should include in the udevice structure that's stored by udev. I made a stab at a first shot - we can add and remove of course, this was a first pass. I've come to realize - with you including libsysfs in udev, the "external" interface that references udevdb could make use of getting information from through libsysfs from sysfs and doesn't need to be in udevdb. 7) I could write a namedevdb for namedev's device management if you wanted.
