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.

Here is a unified version, with all the functions moved to udev_lib.c.
We have a generic function now, to call a given fnct(char *) for every
file ending with a specific suffix, sorted in lexical order. We use it
to execute the dev.d/ files and read our rules.d/ files. The binary
should be a bit smaller now.
I've also changed it, to not do the dev.d/ exec for net devices.

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:

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".
