2005-04-26[PATCH] D-BUS patch for udev-008david@fubar.dk
Attached is a patch against udev-008 to send out a D-BUS message when a device node is added or removed. Using D-BUS lingo, udev acquires the org.kernel.udev service and sends out a NodeCreated or NodeDeleted signal on the org.kernel.udev.NodeMonitor interface. Each signal carries two parameters: the node in question and the corresponding sysfs path. [Note: the D-BUS concepts of service, interface, object can be a bit confusing at first glance] An example program listening for these messages looks like this #!/usr/bin/python import dbus import gtk def udev_signal_received(dbus_iface, member, service, object_path, message): [filename, sysfs_path] = message.get_args_list() if member=='NodeCreated': print 'Node %s created for %s'%(filename, sysfs_path) elif member=='NodeDeleted': print 'Node %s deleted for %s'%(filename, sysfs_path) def main(): bus = dbus.Bus(dbus.Bus.TYPE_SYSTEM) bus.add_signal_receiver(udev_signal_received, 'org.kernel.udev.NodeMonitor', # interface 'org.kernel.udev', # service '/org/kernel/udev/NodeMonitor') # object gtk.mainloop() if __name__ == '__main__': main() and this is the output when hot-plugging some usb-storage. [david@laptop udev-008]$ ~/node_monitor.py Node /udev/sda created for /block/sda Node /udev/sda1 created for /block/sda/sda1 Node /udev/sda1 deleted for /block/sda/sda1 Node /udev/sda deleted for /block/sda The patch requires D-BUS 0.20 or later while the python example program requires D-BUS from CVS as I only recently applied a patch against the python bindings.

2005-04-26[PATCH] enable default_mode ability to actually buildgreg@kroah.com
2005-04-26[PATCH] get rid of the majority of the debug environment variables.greg@kroah.com
Now there are only 3 valid environment test variables. The rest can be specified with the config file.
2005-04-26[PATCH] add support for a main udev config file, udev.conf.greg@kroah.com
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.
2005-04-26[PATCH] Build failure - missing linux/limits.h include?arnd@arndb.de

No, don't include kernel headers directly if you can avoid it. The problem you are referring to seems to be with old tool chains, I have the same symptom with my s390 gcc-2.95/glibc-2.1.3. Including <sys/param.h> instead of <limits.h> seems to fix it.
2005-04-26[PATCH] changed the default location of the database to /udev/.udev.tdb to ↵greg@kroah.com
be LSB compliant Finally the Debian people can get off my back...

2005-04-26[PATCH] more robust config file parsing in namedev.carnd@arndb.de
After getting a number of different crashes for udev reading broken udev.config files, I decided to try to make the parser a little more robust. The behaviour is changed to stop reading the configuration file and logging the broken entry instead of silently ignoring it (is that good? It's easy to just print and continue). All strcpy()'s to a fixed length string are now implicitly limited to the bounds of the target string. I kept the -ENODEV return code for now, not sure if there should be different ones.
2005-04-26[PATCH] got rid of struct device_attrgreg@kroah.com
namedev.c is still a mess, that's up next after testing...
2005-04-26[PATCH] rename namedev.permissions and namedev.config to udev.permissions ↵greg@kroah.com
and udev.config the namedev name didn't really make much sense anymore...
2005-04-26[PATCH] make config files, sysfs root, and udev root configurable from ↵greg@kroah.com
config variables This will make running tests a lot simpler.
2005-04-26[PATCH] major database cleanupsgreg@kroah.com
Now we standardise on a struct udevice to pass around, and store in the database. This cleaned up the database code a lot.
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] put config files and database in /etc/udev by defaultgreg@kroah.com
Can be overridden on the makefile line.
2005-04-26[PATCH] add callout config type to udevpatmans@us.ibm.com
This patch adds a callout config type to udev, so external programs can be called to get serial numbers or id's that are not available as a sysfs attribute.

needs lots more cleanup, but is much nicer than doing this by hand...

.permission parsing works, .config needs more work.
