-These things 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
+ - find a way to tell udev to not cancel firmware
+ requests in initramfs
-These things will change in future udev versions:
- o remove /sys prefix from symlinks in /dev/.udev/{queue,failed}
- (broken tools search /dev for files and get lost following to /sys
- and stat() sysfs files million times)
+ - scsi_id -> sg3_utils?
- o make DRIVER== to match only the event device
- (DRIVERS must be used, we currently translate it to DRIVERS and print
- an error if DRIVER is used)
+ - make gtk-doc optional like kmod
- o switch to fnmatch() instead of our own implementation
+ - move /usr/lib/udev/devices/ to tmpfiles
- o warn if PHYSDEV* keys are used in ENV keys
- (they are deprecated and will be removed from a future kernel)
+ - trigger --subsystem-match=usb/usb_device
- o warn if "/device/" is used in a ATTR, ATTRS, $sysfs key
- (the device link must not be used in rules or tools, udev resolves
- the link and makes the devices available as parents, which can
- be matched with the normal keys)
+ - kill rules_generator
- o warn if BUS, ID, SYSFS are used as keys
- (they are SUBSYSTEMS, KERNELS, ATTRS now)
+ - have a $attrs{} ?
-These things are deprecated and scheduled for removal in a future
-udev version:
- o remove old udevdb dump 'udevinfo -d'
- (-e exports everything)
+ - remove RUN+="socket:"
- o remove udevstart
- (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 remove extra for /etc/dev.d/ /etc/hotplug.d/
- (that inefficient stuff should finally go away)
+ - libudev.so.1
+ - symbol versioning
+ - return object with *_unref()
+ - udev_monitor_from_socket()
+ - udev_queue_get_failed_list_entry()
