2006-08-19consistent key naming to match only the event device or include all parent ↵Kay Sievers
devices This scheme is more consistent and makes it obvious if a match happens against the event device only, or the full chain of parent devices. The old key names are now: BUS -> SUBSYSTEMS ID -> KERNELS SYSFS -> ATTRS DRIVER -> DRIVERS Match keys for the event device: KERNEL SUBSYSTEM ATTR DRIVER (in a future release, for now the same as DRIVERS) Match keys for all devices along the parent device chain: KERNELS SUBSYSTEMS ATTRS DRIVERS ID, BUS, SYSFS are no longer mentioned in the man page but still work. DRIVER must be converted to DRIVERS to match the new scheme. For now, an error is logged, if DRIVER is used. In a future release, the DRIVER key behaviour will change.

2006-01-25rename apply_format() cause it is public nowKay Sievers

2006-01-24substitute format chars in RUN after rule matchingAndrey Borzenkov
Apply substitutions before running a program, not while the rule is parsed. It allows to use environment variables set during rule processing as command arguments.
2006-01-09replace libsysfsKay Sievers
We never used any of the libsysfs convenience features. Here we replace it completely with 300 lines of code, which are much simpler and a bit faster cause udev(d) does not open any syfs file for a simple event which does not need any parent device information.

2005-11-05remove precompiled rules optionKay Sievers
It was a workaround for speed up udev "coldplug", where ~800 events happened a second time during bootup. No need for it with the rules aleady parsed in the daemon. Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@suse.de>
2005-08-08add flag for reading of precompiled rulesKay Sievers
Rules can be precompiled and stored on disk for initramfs, to avoid parsing the rules with every event again and again. Also the OWNER and GROUP names are already resolved to numerical values in the compiled rules. This flag is used for the upcoming move of the rules parsing into udevd: If the real root is mounted udevd is started and parses the rules only once. The event processes will inherit the already parsed rules from the daemon, so we want to ignore any precompiled rules and use the real rules files and watch the filesystem for changes to reload the rules automatically.

Patch from: Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.de>
2005-07-16allow rules to have labels and skip to next labelKay Sievers
This will allow us to have whole blocks of rules to skip conditionally. The following section creates the node "yes": GOTO="TEST" NAME="no" NAME="no2", LABEL="NO" NAME="yes", LABEL="TEST" NAME="no3"

2005-07-05pack parsed rules listKay Sievers
This cuts down our 600 rules file to 98 kb instead of 1.9 Mb memory or file-size with precompiled rules. Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@suse.de>

2005-06-25IMPORT=<file> allow to import a shell-var style config-fileKay Sievers
This allows to source-in a file into the udev environment to have the defined keys available for later processing by udev itself or the forked helper programs. Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@suse.de>
2005-06-24allow rules to be compiled to one binary fileKay Sievers
All the rule files can be compiled into a single file, which can be mapped into the udev process to avoid parsing the rules with every event. Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@suse.de>

2005-06-05udev: handle all events - not only class and block devicesKay Sievers
Handle all events with rules. If udev is expected to handle hotplug.d/ the exernal helper must be called. Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@suse.de>
2005-06-05udev: allow final assignments :=Kay Sievers
The use of KEY:=<value> will make the key unchangeable by later rules. Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@suse.de>
2005-04-26[PATCH] add RUN key to be able to run rule based notificationkay.sievers@vrfy.org
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.
