Add UDEV_LOG to the man udev man page. Remove mention of specific
variables from the udevd/udevsend man page as we changed to pass
the whole environment.
Correct printed Usage: of udevtest and udevinfo.
Init the config in udevtest earlier to accept input with and without
the sysfs mount point.

Remove the overwriting of main_argv[] hack and use the values
from the udev object.
Pass the udev object to call_foreach_file().
In the udevstart case, export SUBSYSTEM and UDEVSTART to the
environment.

The option "-s" will get information about the major/minor,
the physical device, the bus value and the driver from sysfs for
all class and block devices:
kay@pim udev.kay]$ ./udevinfo -s
DEVPATH '/sys/block/sda'
SUBSYSTEM 'block'
NAME 'sda'
MAJORMINOR '8:0'
PHYSDEVPATH '/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.7/usb1/1-3/1-3:1.0/host2/target2:0:0/2:0:0:0'

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.

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.
|
|
Seems that we never closed the opened syslog.
Here is a patch to do this in all our binaries.

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 :)

I think this is what you want for udevinfo. Patched against the latest BK
tree. I tested it and it seemed to work.
One other question, shouldn't udevinfo.c:print_all_attributes() check to
make sure attr->method is SYSFS_METHOD_SHOW along with checking to see
if attr->value != NULL or doesn't that matter?
Here's the libsysfs fix for print_device_chain():

Here is the next step, I still can't sleep and there are to many patches
pending to make something useful :)
Cause nobody wanted to play with me, I've made a screenshot.
The device list is sorted in alphabetical order now and if there are only
a few recently discovered devices, they are placed on top of the list.
For those who want to have a look:
http://vrfy.org/projects/udev/udevruler.png
The patch applies on top of today's mmap() patch. The db format is
changed to have the file and line number of the applied rule. So it
should be easy to edit the matching rule with this beast. It compiles
with "make all udevruler".
|
|
Here we replace the various fgets() with a mmap() call for the config
file reading, due to the reported performance problems with klibc.
Thanks to Patrick's testing, it makes a very small, close to nothing
speed gain for libc users, but a 6 times speed increase for klibc users
with a 1000 line config file.
I've created a udev_lib.[hc] for this and also moved all the generic
stuff from udev.h in there and uninlined the functions.
|
|
Make udevinfo attribute printing note so clear,
that's nearly impossible to misunderstand it in the future.
|
|
Here I try to make the style a bit more consistant in the different
files, so that new patches just copy the 'right' one :)
Some "magic" numbers are replaced and udevtest.c is catched up with udev.
|
|
It seems that the long attribute list can confuse the user.
Se here we print a few words on top the attributes.
|
|
Thanks to Olaf Hering <olh@suse.de> for this patch. It's possible now to
feed the -n option of udevinfo with a symlink.
I've also added a 'all' attribute, but no more text, it's all in the
included man page :)

Hmm, bk didn't checked in one file, maybe I edited it again as root.
Nevermind, here is the more complete version.

external one.
Should fix some more build bugs...
|
|
Use the new location of libsysfs header files.
|
|
Here we switch the configs and man pages to the new attribute syntax.
Also the 'partition trick' is mentioned in udev.8
I think it's more clear visible now, that inside the brackets are user
supplied values used and not some magic keys handled:
'SYSFS_dev' is now 'SYSFS{dev}'
The old syntax is still supported.

Also introduce boolean type for config file to use.

name in the syslog.
