If some software still reads the +private files in /dev/.udev/, which it shouldn't, now it's time to fix it. +Please do not port anything to the new format again, everything in /dev/.udev +is and always was private to udev, and may and will change any time without +prior notice. + +Multiple devices claiming the same names in /dev are limited to symlinks +only now. Mixing identical symlink names and node names is not supported. +This reduces the amount of data in the database significantly. + +NAME="%k" causes a warning now. It's is and always was completely superfluous. +It will break kernel supplied DEVNAMEs and therefore it needs to be removed +from all rules. + +Symlinks to udevadm with the old command names are no longer resolved to +the udevadm commands. + +udev 146 +======== +Bugfixes. + +The udevadm trigger "--retry-failed" option, which is replaced since quite +a while by "--type=failed" is removed. + +The failed tracking was not working at all for a few releases. The RUN +option "ignore_error" is replaced by a "fail_event_on_error" option, and the +default is not to track any failing RUN executions. + +New keymaps, new modem, hid2hci updated. + +udev 145 +======== +Fix possible crash in udevd when worker processes are busy, rules are +changed at the same time, and workers get killed to reload the rules. + udev 144 ======== +Bugfixes. + +Properties set with ENV{.FOO}="bar" are marked private by starting the +name with a '.'. They will not be stored in the database, and not be +exported with the event. + +Firmware files are looked up in: + /lib/firmware/updates/$(uname -r) + /lib/firmware/updates + /lib/firmware/$(uname -r) + /lib/firmware" +now. + +ATA devices switched the property from ID_BUS=scsi to ID_BUS=ata. +ata_id, instead of scsi_id, is the default tool now for ATA devices. udev 143 ========
