-These things need to be done, or would be nice to have:
-
- o Log the relationship of the kernel name and the persistent disk name
- to syslog, so any error logged from the kernel can be associated with
- any of the links at that time.
-
-
-These things are scheduled for removal sometimes:
-
- o remove broken %e enumeration
- (simple enumerations can't work and should go)
-
- o remove devfs naming scheme rules and scripts
-
- o remove MODALIAS + $modalias
- (ENV{MODALIAS}, $env{MODALIAS}, $sysfs{modalias} will do it)
-
- o remove udevstart, udevsend
- (we rely on the kernel "uevent" triggers of kernel 2.6.15 and no longer
- want to guess event properties from sysfs like udevstart is doing it)
-
+ o libudev enumerate
+ add buses and drivers
+ add /sys/block/ scanning crap
+ use enumerate for "trigger"
+ o libudev queue - interface for /dev/.udev/queue/ state
+ use queue interface for "settle"
+ o relace test/sys/ with current sysfs layout
+ o use libudev device in udev_rules.c
+ get rid of udevice, store rule matching state in rule iterator
+ o rework rules to a match-action list, instead of a rules array
+ o add DVB variables to kernel, and drop shell script rule
+ o add watershed extra
+ o log warning if the kernel uses CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED*=y,
+ which means that /sys/class/block/ does not exist, but udev
+ will depend on it in a future release
+ o DEVTYPE for disks is set by the kernel, they will be removed from
+ the default rules
+ o "udevadm control" commands will only accept the --<command> syntax
+ o symlink names to udevadm will no longer be resolved to old command names
+ o get distros to agree on a default set of rules
